coke vs. water

Postby TerraFrost » Tue Jul 08, 2003 5:53 pm

We all know that water is important but I've never seen it written down
like this before.

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

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

3. Even MILD dehydration will slow down one's metabolism as much 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 every day?

COKE
1. In many states (in the USA) 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 the ham is
finished, remove the foil, allowing the drippings to mix with the Coke
for
sumptuous brown gravy.

8. To remove grease from clothes: Empty a can of coke into a 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. Its pH is 2.8. 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 in
osteoporosis.

2. To carry Coca-Cola syrup (the concentrate) the commercial truck must
use
the Hazardous Material place cards reserved for highly corrosive
materials.

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

Now the question is, would YOU like a glass of water or coke

I drink water. Coke is ok, but it makes your teeth blah and is basically filled with tons of sugar
