Coke vs. Water
Here are a few fun facts that a fellow chiropractor of mine had researched and I find very interesting. I thought you would too.

WATER
1) 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated. (Likely applies to half world pop.)
2) Even MILD dehydration will slow down one’s metabolism as much as 3%.
3) One glass of water shut down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in
a University of Washington study.
4) Lack of water, the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue.
5) Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of water a day could significantly ease back and
joint pain for up to 80% of suffers.
6) 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.
7) Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of colon cancer by 45%, 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 everyday?
COKE
1) In many states the highway patrol carries two gallons of Coke in the trunk of their vehicles 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 crumpled 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) The active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid. Its ph is 2.8. It will dissolve a nail in about 4 days.
7) To carry Coca-Cola syrup (the concentrate) the commercial truck must use the hazardous material
place cards reserved for highly corrosive materials.
