Author Thirsty for a Coke? Think Again
Pace Sanders

2005-06-19, 10:45 pm

Have a look at the wrapper on a Coca-Cola 1.5 liter
bottle and in the ingredients label you will find
phosphoric acid in it. Minute quantities of ethylene
glycol are also used (which is acknowledged in the soft
drink world for making it really chill). This is
popularly known as anti-freeze which prevents water from
freezing at 0 deg C and instead drops it 4-5 degrees with
minute quantities. This chemical is a known slow poison
in the caliber of arsenic.


So, if you manage to drink about 4 liters of Coke within
an hour or so, you can die. Read along and give up these
dangerous things. Be natural; have flavored milks, tender
coconuts, buttermilk, lassi and plain water instead of
these "soft" drinks. Guess what's the pH for soft drinks,
e.g. Coke? PH 3.4! This acidity is strong enough to
dissolve teeth and bones! Our human body stops building
bones at the age of about 30. Soft drinks do not have any
nutrition value (in terms of vitamins & minerals).


It is high in sugar content, carbonic acid, chemicals
i.e. colorings etc.


Some like to take cold soft drinks after each meal. Guess
what's the impact? Our body needs an optimum temperature
of 37 degrees Celsius for digestive enzyme functioning.
The temperature of cold soft drinks is very much below 37
degrees or even close to 0 degrees Celsius. This will
dilute the enzymes & stress the digestive system. The
food taken will not be digested. In fact it will be
fermented! The fermented food produces gases, decays and
becomes toxin, gets absorbed by the intestine, circulates
in the blood stream and is carried to the whole body.


Hence toxin is cumulated in other parts of the body,
developing into various diseases. Think before you drink
Coke/Pepsi (or any soft drink) again.


Have you ever thought what you drink when you drink an
aerated drink?


You gulp down carbon dioxide, when nobody in the world
would advise you to drink CO2. Two months back, there was
a competition at Delhi university "Who could drink the
most Coke?" The winner drank 8 bottles and fainted on the
spot -- too much CO2 in the blood.


Thereafter, the principal banned all soft drinks from the
college canteen!


While this might have been an extreme measure, their
results do provide some food for thought. Did you know
that soft drinks use chemicals in them that cause immense
harm to you. Someone put a broken tooth in a bottle of
Pepsi and in 10 days it DISSOLVED! Can you believe it?
Teeth and bones are the only human parts that stay intact
for years after death.


Imagine what the drink must be doing to your soft
intestines and stomach lining!

Just another stupid scare monger. How about addressing reality, instead
of phony issues which are at least 60 years old.

So? Many *healthy* foods contain substances that is large quantities can
be toxic. Vitamin A? Various minerals. Castor beans.

Rubbish

What is "natural" about drinking something designed to nourish the
young of another species?

Coconuts have one of the highest saturated fat contents of any food.

Wow! We'd better avoid all fruits then, aprticularly citrus. Idiot, our
digestive systems handle acidic foods without difficulty. Do you know
how our didgestive systems work? Apparently not if you are so concerned
about ph value of coke.

No it doesn't. Are you saying that broken bones won't heal after thirty?

We just stop increasing bone mass and length.

Nor does pure water - in terms of vitamins and minerals.

Gee. Someone should invent a diet version of softdrinks. Wait ...

I wonder why Eskimos and those who live in extremely cold climates don't
die? Do you actually think that they only drink pre-heated water?

Thank God for Thomas Crapper. It seemed that he discovered a way to get

If this were true (it isn't of course) then the "headmaster" (of a
University ???) would be an idiot. Better to ban those who decide to
drink eight bottles of "anything" at one sitting.

All processed food does. Preservatives.

If they had used orange or lemon jiuce it wouldn't have taken as long.

So? Why do you mention this. It supports nothing that you have lied

Nothing much that the stomach lining wass't designed to accomodate.

You are an idiot. Why did you post this crap?

No. The CO2 would either be burped up or absorbed by the stomach and
intestines and breathed out.

Sadly, the OP is a survivor of a study where he rapidly drank 4 liters
of a carbonated beverage. Immediately thereafter, when the CO2 wanted to
escape, the doctors blocked all the usual exits and a large cerebral
burp blew his brains out.

Sorry Pace -- the way I heard it, the Delhi U. soft drink ban was more
on the grounds that soft drinks profit multinational companies, while
TEA profits local companies like, uhn, Hindustan Lever.... Well,
they're LOCAL multinationals, anyway.

How are the rest of your "facts"?

On the way to having your head examined.
I couldn't drink 4 liters of something in 4 hours.

Geez I guess that means that everyone over 30 who breaks
a bone in their leg should just cut their dang leg off because
they will never get that bone to grow back..

Cold dilutes enzymes?

I guess in prehistoric days, cave men living in cold areas,
only had to eat once a winter because they never digested
their food?

I thought you said 4 liters would kill? Why did he only faint?
But what a burp when he hit the floor.

Urban myth from back in the days before we had a PC name for them.
Used to just call them lies or stupid rumors.
But for fun try hydrochloric acid and water on bones - that's what's in our
soft tender stomachs.

No he spontaneously combusts. I am remembering an old South
Park Episode. A couple of teenagers spontaneously combust
and the only thing they have in common is new girlfriends -
ergo the blame is put on the fact that they probably didn't
want fart in front of new gf's. So, it is decreed, that no
one is allowed to keep their farts in. But... this causes a
huge hole on the Ozone layer....

Excellent points.

However, how about pesticides, herbicides, fungicides,
as well as chemical fertilizers that are used?

IIANM, Coke has significant amounts of dihydrogen monoxide in it, and
ingesting large amounts of DHMO in a short interval can cause loss of
consciousness and even death.

Perhaps it was the DHMO that was to blame!
