Water or Coke?
Which one is the 'Real Thing" ????
We all know that water is important but you've never seen it
written
down like this before. WORTH THE READ! (Read all of it)
WATER
1. 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated. (Likely applies to
half
world population.)
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. Are you drinking the amount
of
water you should every day?
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. It will also clean road
haze
from your windshield.
FOR YOUR INFORMATION:
1. The active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid. Its pH is 2.8.
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
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 glass of water or Coke?
