WATER OR COKE?

Eye Opening Information!

This is really an eye opener... Water or Coke? 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.

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.

And now for the properties of Coke:

1. In many states (in the USA) the highway patrol carries two gallons of

Coke in the truck 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 sta ins 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: Applying 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.

9. It will also clean road haze from your windshield.

For Your Info:

1. The active i ngredient in Coke is phosphoric acid. Its pH is 2.8. It will

dissolve a nail in about 4 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 Coke or a glass of water?
