That was a real eye opener...thank goodness I can take pop or leave it. I have also heard that to neutralize the acid in one can of coke, you would need to drink 32 glasses of water. I don't know about you but that's a lot!!! I'll pass on the coke thanks! :-) Yuck! That was a real eye opener…thank goodness I can take pop or leave it.

I just arrived to this article from your health challenge article, and I must say.... I am going to finish the can of cokes that I have already bought, since offcourse I don't want to throw money away... and I am really going to try to just switch to water, I bet I could eat more too, with all that weight I'd be saving, hehe.

But Dr. Chi-Tang Ho, professor of food science at Rutgers University has uncovered evidence that our addiction to canned drinks is directly linked to diabetes because of the high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS). HFCS is a sweetener found in many foods and beverages, including non-diet soda pop, baked goods, and condiments. It is has become the sweetener of choice for many food manufacturers because it is considered more economical, sweeter and more easy to blend into beverages than table sugar. Some researchers have suggested that high-fructose corn syrup may contribute to an increased risk of diabetes as well as obesity, a claim which the food industry disputes. Until now, little laboratory evidence has been available on the topic. [...] [...] Wow, this is very bad news considering my complete and utter addiction to Coke.

Well, if we always were looking at how things are bad for you we would be wrapped up in cotton in a basement living off (your favorite) scallops and drinking warm water only. I am not as health conscious as I ought to be, but I sure enjoy life :) I drink 6-10 cans of Coke a day, I switched to Diet Coke a few years back but have yet to see any weight changes. I usually have a jug of water in front of me while working as well though because sometimes the sweetness from even the Diet Coke is too much. I have always been a Coke freak, and I am always trying to get my American friends to bring over new Coke flavors when they visit here. I even asked one of my Japan based friends to bring over one of the cucumber Pepsis, Cucumber Pepsi sounds too weird so I wanted to try one :) Kim:) Have a Coke and a smile…

This is far worse than sugar. Sugar is bad but when they made this change coke became more addictive and damaging. You can find coke with sugar in Mexico and in some US stores featuring food from Mexico. Actually US coke contains high fructose syrup not sugar. This is far worse than sugar.

Apart from all the weight I put on, my teeth were taking a beating from too much coke. Until I became health conscious I never really looked at what i was consuming. Makes a different once you start to explode some of these things. I used to drink 6 cans of coke a day in my office after I quit drinking coffee.
