Coke will also clean road haze from your windshield.
75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated. (This likely applies to half the world population.)
In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is often mistaken for hunger.
Even MILD dehydration will slow down one's metabolism as much as 3%.
One glass of water will shut down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied (in a University of Washington study).
Lack of water is the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue.
Preliminary research indicates that 8 to 10 glasses of water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain for up to 80% of sufferers.

Tonight, when I put my cold bottle of Coke on the counter in a local store, the cashier, who had been silent the entire time (not even a smile) said, You know that will eat your teeth? I said, Yes, and my stomach, too. I've had Pepsi used on my battery to remove corrosion and I've read all the uglies - but I'm addicted. Caffeine. I'm thinking of moving to tea, but haven't gotten there just yet. Heck, after I had my child you know what I wanted? A fountain Coke! A fountain Coke! Do you know how much water they have in them? At least that's what it looks like. I got in trouble for that first Coke, too - had a C-section and had to, well, do something before I could drink the hard stuff (yes, like Coke!)
i have always perferred a bottle of water over any kind of soda really. on occasion i might drink grape soda or root beer but i have always disliked anything else. so water to answer you question
Certainly water is much better. I like the taste of soda better, but I've stopped drinking so much, for health reasons.
Wow I did not know this information! I feel guilty for drinking a Rockstar right now. I think I will drink some water instead.
Water. Coke is nasty regardless of cancer risk or whatnot.
Water..
waterrrr
water
water is better for you. But its okay to have a soda every once in a while.
Coke ;)
I'd still PREFER a glass of Coke. Regardless of this health rant.
everyone knows that drinking water is better for our body system. however its tasteless and unapetising. In a store i would sometimes buy a bottle of water, however i often choose the coke or pepsi instead purely on the fact that it tastes nicer.
i do understand about the fact of teeth rot, and i have braces so i dont drink soft drinks much because it can harm my teeth but every once in a while i like a soft drink, its one of lifes little luxurys!
i just drink it through a straw so it dosent come in contact with the teeth.
and as for the statistics in this question, if we looked into everything that would harm our health, we would never do anything..ever. I mean im sure being on this computer is harming your eyes/health. and your posting questions. so it dosent stop people :)
