Water, Not Coke

[Guest guest]

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 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 trunk 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 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?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I explain to you matters

Pertaining to enlightenment,

But don’t try to keep

Your mind on them.

Just turn to the ocean

Of your own essence

And develop practical accord with its nature.
