Did You Know that

WATER

#1. 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated.
(Likely applies to half the world population.)


#2. In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak
that it is mistaken for hunger.


#3. Even MILD dehydration will slow down one's metabolism as 3%.


#4. One glass of water will shut down midnight hunger pangs
for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a University of Washington
study.


#5. Lack of water, the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue.


#6. Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of
water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain
for up to 80% of sufferers.


#7. A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term memory,
trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on the computer screen
or on a printed page.


#8. Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of colon cancer
by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast cancer by 79%., and one is
50% less likely to develop bladder cancer. Are you drinking the amount
of water you should drink every day?



COKE

#1. In many states the highway patrol carries
two gallons of Coke in the trunk to remove blood from
the highway after a car accident.

#2. You can put a T-bone steak in a bowl of Coke
and it will be gone in two days.


#3. To clean a toilet: Pour a can of Coca-Cola into the
toilet bowl and let the "real thing" sit for one hour,
then flush clean. The citric acid in Coke removes
stains from vitreous china.


#4. To remove rust spots from chrome car bumpers:
Rub the bumper with a rumpled-up piece of Reynolds
Wrap aluminum foil dipped in Coca-Cola.


#5. To clean corrosion from car battery terminals: Pour
a can of Coca-Cola over the terminals to bubble
away the corrosion.


#6. To loosen a rusted bolt: Apply a cloth soaked in Coca-Cola to the
rusted bolt for several minutes.


#7. To bake a moist ham: Empty a can of Coca-Cola into
the baking pan, wrap the ham in aluminum foil, and bake.
Thirty minutes before ham is finished, remove the foil, allowing the
drippings to mix with the Coke for a sumptuous brown gravy.


#8. To remove grease from clothes: Empty a can of Coke
into the load of greasy clothes, add detergent, and run
through a regular cycle. The Coca-Cola will help loosen
grease stains. It will also clean road haze from your windshield.


FOR YOUR INFORMATION:

#1. the active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid.
It will dissolve a nail in about four days. Phosphoric
acid also leaches calcium from bones and is a major
contributor to the rising increase of osteoporosis.

#2. To carry Coca-Cola syrup (the concentrate) the
commercial trucks must use a hazardous Material place
cards reserved for highly corrosive materials.

#3. The distributors of Coke have been using it to clean engines of the
trucks for about 20 years!

Now the question is, would you like a glass of water?

or Coke?

I used to do that all the time as a kid, isnt it so cool :D
 
My sister lives on coke and has soooo many fillings - will definetely show her this !! It probably still won't put her off. Can you be addicted to coke ?? I think she is !
 
it's still nice with a vodka though!!!!;)
 
I think it is possible to be addicted to coke. I love diet coke but I really do believe it eats away at your insides.
 
Yeah I love diet coke but stomach acid is as bad from what i hear! IT can do the same thing apparently? If I'm wrong please tell me!
 
I drink loads of coke, I am drinking some now.
I am always brushing my teeth though.

Pmsl!!! Does that sort your liver out? I promise I will drink water tomorrow... lots of it ( between the diet cokes )
 
I had a dentist tell me once that you must not brush your teeth after drinking soft drinks eg coke as it softens the enamel on them and causes damage. I have not done it since

That was a bit of a thick comment wasn't it! Must be the pregnancy hormones....!
 
Its what he told me scouts honour. Maybe rinse your mouth out with water after or something. You could ask your dentist what the best thing to do is. I have a tongue bar as well and he told me that that is bad for my teeth as well as it knocks against them and chips the enamel off. I think I will end up with no teeth at all ha ha
 
Gawd. I should be dead... or cleaned out really well for all the cokes I drink.

To think... when I die everyone will think it's because I did ciggies and wine... but it will truthfully probably really be because of the cokes! EEK!

I do think you get addicted. I think you get addicted to the sugar and caffeine. I also think you get addicted to grabbing that "something" to drink sitting by your computer or on your nail desk, or in your vehicle. I swear to you I can't go out of town without stopping for a 44 oz coke. Which is the most ignorant thing in the world because how long before I have to stop and pee? Not very.

I need to change my life. So would water and wine be better than coke and wine? LOL!
 
i take all the fun out of drinking coke, it has to be caffiene free diet coke cos i cant have caffiene but i used to be addicted to coke when i was younger i HAD to have at least a can a day now i cant stand the taste of normal coke ugh!!

it's true, same for orange juice, hot lemon etc anything that's acidic, your bascially brush the acid into your teeth, which then causes errosion of the enamel.
