Coke vs Water?

Interesting stuff about water and coke.  Do you realize there are no, not even one, health benefits from drinking cokes, which are nothing more than a combination of chemicals that supposedly taste good.

  The facts below might just blow you away: 

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?
