Diet coke..?!


Question:

Diet coke..?

Is diet Coke or Coke Zero bad for you?


Answers:
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
pains 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 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 4days.
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?

Have A Great Day and Share It With Others

Do you still want a coke?

only if you drink more than a case a day.. Makes a good mixer for bourbon too.

I don't believe that it is 'bad' for you, but it does have less sugar, calories and carbohydrates.

anything diet is . all diet drinks have inboming fluid in them gross thats not supposed to be in ur body till ur dead!!!

if u drink 2 much ur teeth with turn brown or any other color! and possibly bad 4 ur health

I was drinking about 6-12 diet cokes per day for about 3 months when my mom passed away to stay "up" for all the work involved in straightening out her affairs. One night I was talking with a former nurse about how I was losing my memory because I would forget stupid things, like talking about a computer and I couldn't think of the word "monitor", for computer screen. I told her I thought I was going stupid all of a sudden.

She told me that Aspartame/Nutrasweet/Equal (all different names for the same sweetener) causes memory loss. As soon as I stopped drinking diet cokes, within about 3 weeks, my memory started coming back and I wasn't being "stoopid" anymore! d:)

I did know previously though, that Diet Coke held at high temperatures or cooking with Equal/aspartame/Nutrasweet can cause the sweetener to release formaldehyde, which is a known carcinogen and a dangerous preservative.

no bladdy diet coke

it is not bad if drank moderately but if too much it will be hazardous.
since it is diet it has no sugar meaning the sweet taste is being replaced by artificial sweeteners. these artificial sweeteners, an example is aspartame, is commonly uses. but they are carcinogenic if taken in large dosage -- meaning they can cause cancer.. so if drank too often the result may be the activation of cancer cells in ones body.

Yes all soda in any shape or form is horrible for your body.

i think its bad for you if you drink lots of it,best drank in moderation
