Coke CanWith all the bad news about Coke making people fat and generally being bad for you, finally some good news!

Researchers at the University of Maryland did a little test by dropping teeth into 12 different beverages for 2 weeks to see what happens to enamel over roughly the period of a decade in your mouth.

Surprisingly, Coke was the least harmful of all the drinks tested!

Now, none of this crap is as good for you as simply drinking water, but check out the list to determine what is eating away at your teeth the fastest.

Drink Enamel Erosion (mg / sq cm)
Coca Cola 3
Black Tea 5
Arizona Origina Iced Tea 9
Nestea Sweetened Lemon 10
Fanta Orange 12
Lemon Propel Fitness Water 12
Nantucket Nectars Half and Half 13
AMP Energy 14
Artic Shatter Powerade 17
Lemon Lime Gatorade 20
Red Bull 21
Snapple Lemonade 29


It’s kind of hard to believe that Snapple is actually 10 times WORSE for you than Coke…
