190.0 Water or Coke?

One of my readers, Annis, sent me this information about water, and coke. Please read it and take it to heart. Taking care of our bodies, no matter how much we weigh, is so important.



Facts About Water:

#1. 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated.
(This likely applies to half the world's population.)

#2. In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak
that it is mistaken for hunger.

#3. Even MILD dehydration will slow down one's metabolism about 3%.

#4. One glass of water shut down midnight hunger pangs
for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a University of
Washington study.

#5. Lack of water is 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.

Are you drinking enough water every day?



FOR YOUR INFORMATION:

#1. The active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid.
It will dissolve a nail in about four days. Phosphoric
acid also leaches calcium from bones and is a major
contributor to the rising increase of osteoporosis.

#2. To carry Coca-Cola syrup (the concentrate) the
commercial trucks must use Hazardous Material placards
reserved for highly corrosive materials.

#3. The distributors of Coke have been using it to clean
engines of their trucks for about 20 years!

Now the question is, are you sure you want that coke?
