Coke or Water ?
10/19/2006 9:41:18 AM

Hello my Friends-

This is a serious subject.  
 
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 fuzz 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 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: 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 a 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 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 con
tributor 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?
 
 
 
Have a Great Day and Share this With Others.

Is Your Body Acidic?

Some of the symptoms associated with acidic conditions in the body include weight loss problems, insomnia, water retention, arthritis, migraine headaches, constipation, colds, flu, stomach ulcers, acid reflux and even cancer. Many health experts agree that an overly acidic body greatly diminishes the effectiveness of your immune system and usually leads to disease.

Acidic conditions in the body are caused by: junk food, proteins, carbohydrates, fats, sodas, coffee, sports drinks, alcohol, environmental toxins, and stress. Considering this long list of items that can lead to acidic challenges in our body, it becomes very clear why it is so important to drink an alkaline beverage like Xtreme X2O every day.       


This chart should answer your question.

Leonard,

That just makes me want to have a pop. Living in Vegas we know how important water is. When temps are 115, you need water!! I also learned that using sea salt helps your body use the water that you drink, it actually takes it into the cells rather than just stores it.

I sent this to some of my pop drinking friends. Yes, I do enjoy a Coke once in awhile, but I cut it with whiskey - does that help?LOL

Thanks,

Sheryl
