cinda30 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Phosphoric Acid in Coca-Cola and Diet Coke has been shown to destroy bones by contributing to osteoporosis and destroying teeth. Aspartame, now known as AminoSweet, has been linked to numerous diseases and health problems. In addition, there are food dyes and other chemical additives in Coke products that are known carcinogens. Due to the mass marketing and consumption of Coke products, millions are addicted to these products due to the caffeine, sugar and aspartame. Coke is also guilty of marketing some products as "healthy" such as VitaminWater and Evigna. Experts consider these claims as false advertising and there are current lawsuits against Coke because of their VitaminWater advertising. In the United States, because of public pressure, Coca-Cola has had to less aggressively market their products to children. However, around the world, the company continues to push their products to addict children where that pressure does not exist. To Coke executives and board members, profits take precedence over morality, ethics and the well-being of children. "Over recent years there have been allegations that Cola beverage consumption has been contributing to the osteoporosis epidemic. The large beverage companies vigorously deny the allegation and have produced studies, which they claim disproves the allegation while on the other side the proponents of the allegation claim that research proves the allegation. One way to clarify the situation is to examine the chemistry of the process ... For Your Information: The active ingredient 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.

Airstream_Bill Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 I am getting ready to have a large glass. Coke will also dissolve a steel Nail as stated above, It Will take rust off of a car bumper and who knows what else. They have been talking about Coke since I was a child. That is over 60 years ago. They sure sell a lot of it. It was probably a lot better back when it had real Cocaine in it as was a called a medicine. I am still going to go drink a glass right now. Cheers!

oliverjia Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 The whole food industry is a big black hole to human health now. The "Food" comes out of factory streamlines does contain nutrition, however toxic chemicals are also part of the formula, in many many cases.

straycat19 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Funny they only mention coke when in fact it is in all drinks. Check Pepsi's site, every drink they make, including Gatorade, Pepsi, Lipton Tea, etc contains Phosphorus in the form of phosphoric acid. Anytime you see phosphorus in a drink it is phosphoric acid. I have been drinking coke all my life (OK I put a few shots of Jack Daniels in it for flavoring) and it hasn't hurt me. I am a firm believer that genetics plays a major part in what illnesses you get in your lifetime. For example, no one in my family going back 4 generations has had cancer, even though most of them smoked their entire lifetime, and lived to be in their late 80s.

I drink pepsi since i was a kid, and my teeths are in bad shape, and i'm not a fan of sugar, chocolat, dessert. But it also depend of DNA, since all my family have teeths problem. Then, i stop drinking it...for orange juice...and find out that the acid may erode tooth enamel. So, it's not better...in a way. They even say to not brush your teeth just after drinking it, because it soften the enamel . When i was a kid, they say to drink milk, and lot of it. It was healthy. But a few years ago, they say to not drink so much, because the fat in it, and some lactose intolerence for many peoples. They even add that it may cause cancer. Short story, all we drink and eat isn't good for us, a way or another. A healthy solution now may be the devil later. So... Drink what you like, and eat what you like, because our live is short.

Actually you should wait at least 30 minutes after drinking acidic drinks like orange juice or any other foods, because nowadays most of the foods we eat are acidic so brushing 30 minutes later after eating or drinking is good. drinking milk is great but low fat. low fat milk's calcium is absorbed more than full-fat's. Yes life is short but since the creation of humanity, we have been looking for ways to make the life a lil bit longer. it's all about this big meaningful word, hope. drink as healthy as you can and hope to live longer. after all humans can't live without hopes, they'll be dead instead.

smallhagrid Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Interesting indeed. Taste is what drives folks to become addicts of pleasant tasting stuff - and once addicted most will ignore if it makes them sick. Basic premise here is that ALL soda is just a chemical shitstorm in a can (or bottle). I have not consumed any such thing in decades and do not miss them.

SUURE, let's do a tongue-cumcision (just made that up:surgical removal of taste buds) in all newborn babies then so they can't become "addicted" to delicious food/drinks. let's make the world a dull place for everyone to apease those who have been forbidden from eating tasty stuff. (if they can't enjoy it, why should anybody else?) down with the tyranny of chocolate, and soda, and ketchup, and junk food and sweets!. death penalty for those who wake up in the middle of the night to assault the fridge to drink corn syrup straight from the bottle!, life sentence for those who sit in the couch with a bowl of nutella and a spoon!. these shall be your only meal, eat them until your belly is full!... for the rest of your life.
