Little Helpful Hints

Subject: Coke Vs. Water ???

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.]   COKE 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, 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 ???"
