Water
- 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated (Likely
applies to half world population).
- In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak
that it is often mistaken for hunger.
- Even MILD dehydration will slow down one's
metabolism as much as 3%.
- One glass of water will shut down midnight hunger
pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a U-Washington
study.
- Lack of water is the #1 trigger of daytime
fatigue.
- Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of
water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain for up
to 80% of sufferers.
- 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.
- 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.
Coke
- 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.
- You can put a T-bone steak in a bowl of coke and it
will be gone in two days.
- 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.
- 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.
- To clean corrosion from car battery terminals: Pour
a can of Coca-Cola over the terminals to bubble away the
corrosion.
- To loosen a rusted bolt: Apply a cloth soaked in
Coca-Cola to the rusted bolt for several minutes.
- 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.
- 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. This is very
interesting. Check it out.
For Your Information
- The active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid.
Its pH is 28. 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.
- To carry Coca-Cola syrup (the concentrate) the
commercial truck must use the Hazardous material place cards
reserved for highly corrosive materials.
- 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 a glass of coke?
