Soda Lover? Sorry, I'm dropping the bomb on you!

LOVE YOUR SODA???



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. 


#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?
