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 ???"
