Water
or Coca Cola?
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 a coke?
