Coke is the most valuable brand in
history, and “Coca-Cola” is the world's second-most recognized word after
“hello.” However, the beverage itself is an absolute poison to the human
metabolism. Coke is very close to the acidity level of battery acid and consequently
it can clean surfaces equivalent to and often better than many toxic household
cleaners.
It's cheaper and easier to buy Coke in some third world
countries than it is to access clean water. Coke uses “public relations
propaganda” to convince consumers and entire nations that it is an
“environmental company” when really it is linked to pollution, water shortages,
and disease. People who consume soft drinks such as Coke have a 48% increase in
heart attack and stroke risk, compared to people who did not drink the sodas at
all or did not drink them every day. A study published in the journal
Respirologyreveals that soft drink consumption is also associated with lung and
breathing disorders including asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
(COPD). The carbonation in Coke causes calcium loss in the bones through a
3-stage process: The carbonation irritates the stomach. The stomach “cures” the
irritation the only way it knows how. It adds the only antacid at its disposal:
calcium. It gets this from the blood. The blood, now low on calcium,
replenishes its supply from the bones. If it did not do this, muscular and
brain function would be severely impaired. But, the story doesn't end there.
Another problem with most Coke is it also contain phosphoric acid (not the same
as the carbonation, which is carbon dioxide mixed with the water). Phosphoric
acid also causes a draw-down on the body's store of calcium. So Coke softens
your bones (actually, makes them weak and brittle) in 3 ways: Carbonation
reduces the calcium in the bones. Phosphoric acid reduces the calcium in the
bones. The beverage replaces a calcium-containing alternative, such as milk or
water. Milk and water are not excellent calcium sources, but they are sources.
Esophageal cancer was very rare two generations ago — now, it's common. The
basic mechanism works as follows: Mechanical damage to cells is a huge risk
factor for cancer. It's why asbestos particles, for example, cause lung cancer.
All soft drinks cause acid reflux (stomach acid rising up past the esophageal
valve). This is more pronounced when the body is horizontal (as in sleeping),
but the sheer volume of Coke and soft drinks consumed in the USA means the acid
reflux is well past the danger point. Any time you ingest a gassy drink, you
are going to get belching–and acid into the esophagus. How much is too much?
The research doesn’t say where the limit is–it only shows that most of us are
far, far, far past it. tomach acid dissolves tissue — that's its purpose. The
stomach lining does not extend into the esophagus, so the lower esophagus gets
damaged by acid far more frequently in soft drink users than in non soft drink
users. This results in a radical increase in cell mutations, along with a far
higher level of free radicals. 20 Practical Uses For Coke Coke acts as an
acidic cleaner. The amount of acid in soda is enough to wear away at the enamel
of your teeth, making them more susceptible to decay. In tests done on the
acidity levels of soda, certain ones were found to have PH levels as low as
2.5. To put that into perspective, consider that battery acid has a pH of 1 and
pure water has a pH of 7. To prove Coke does not belong in the human body, here
are 20 practical ways you can use Coke as a domestic cleaner: Removes grease
stains from clothing and fabric Removes rust; methods include using fabric
dipped in Coke, a sponge or even aluminum foil. Also loosens rusty bolts
Removes blood stains from clothing and fabric. Cleans oil stains from a garage
floor; let the stain soak, hose off. Kills slugs and snails; the acids kills
them. Cleans burnt pans; let the pan soak in the Coke, then rinse. Descales a
kettle (same method as with burnt pans) Cleans car battery terminals by pouring
a small amount of Coke over each one. Cleans your engine; Coke distributors
have been using this technique for decades. Makes pennies shine; soaking old
pennies in Coke will remove the tarnish. Cleans tile grout; pour onto kitchen
floor, leave for a few minutes, wipe up. Dissolves a tooth; Use a sealed
container…takes a while but it does work. Removes gum from hair; dip into a
small bowl of Coke, leave a few minutes. Gum will wipe off. Removes stains from
vitreous china. Got a dirty pool? Adding two 2-liter bottles of Coke clears up
rust. You can remove (or fade) dye from hair by pouring diet Coke over it.
Remove marker stains from carpet. Applying Coke, scrubbing and then clean with
soapy water will remove marker stains. Cleans a toilet; pour around bowl, leave
for a while, flush clean. Coke and aluminum foil will bring Chrome to a high
shine. Strips paint off metal furniture. Soak a towel in Coke and lay it on the
paint surface. Now can you imagine what it does to your stomach lining? Who needs
the ‘household and cleaning’ section at the hardware store when we have Coke.
Have you ever wondered what exactly Coca Cola is? After 10 minutes: The sugar
contained in a glass of Cola can cause a devastating “strike” on the body. The
cause being the phosphoric acid which inhibits the action of sugar. After 20
minutes: A leap in insulin levels in bloodstream occurs. After 40 minutes:
Ingestion of caffeine is finally completed. The eye's pupils are expanding.
Blood pressure rises because the liver disposes more sugar into the
bloodstream. The adenosine receptors become blocked thereby preventing
drowsiness. After 45 minutes: The body raises production of the dopamine
hormone, which stimulates the brain pleasure center. Similar to the reaction
Heroin creates. After 1 hour: Phosphoric acid binds calcium, magnesium and zinc
in the gastrointestinal tract, which supercharges metabolism. The release of
calcium through urine takes place. After more than 1 hour: Diuretic effects of
the drink enters in “the game”. The calcium, magnesium and zinc are removed out
of the body, which are a part of our bones, as well as sodium. At this time we
can become irritable or subdued. The whole quantity of water, contained in a
coca cola, is removed through urination. When having a cold bottle of Coke and
enjoying its undeniable freshness are we aware of what chemical “cocktail” we
are putting into our bodies? The active ingredient in Coca-Cola is
orthophosphoric acid. Due to its high acidity, cisterns used for transporting
the chemical have to be equipped with special reservoirs designed for highly
corrosive materials. Let's have a look at “the anatomy” of one of the most
advertised products of “Coca-Cola Co.” – Coca-Cola Light without caffeine. This
drink contains Aqua Carbonated, E150D, E952, E951, E338, E330, Aromas, E211.
Aqua Carbonated – this is sparkling water. It stirs gastric secretion,
increases the acidity of the gastric juice and provokes flatulency. Filtered
tap water is what is primarily used. E150D – this is food coloring obtained
through the processing of sugar at specified temperatures, with or without
addition of chemical reagents. In the case of coca-cola, ammonium sulfate is
added. E952– Sodium Cyclamate is a sugar substitute. Cyclamate is a synthetic
chemical, has a sweet taste, which is 200 times sweeter than sugar, and is used
as an artificial sweetener. In 1969 it was banned by FDA, since it, as well as
saccharin and aspartame, caused cancer in rats. E950– Acesulfame Potassium. 200
times sweeter than sugar, containing methyl-ether. It aggravates the operation
of the cardiovascular system. Likewise, it contains asparaginic acid which can
also cause an excitant effect on our nervous system and in time it can lead to
addiction. Acesulfame is badly dissolved and is not recommended for use by
children and pregnant women. E951– Aspartame. A sugar substitute for diabetics
and is chemically unstable at elevated temperatures it breaks down into
methanol and phenylalanine. Methanol is very dangerous as only 5-10ml can cause
destruction of the optic nerve and irreversible blindness. In warm soft drinks,
aspartame transforms into formaldehyde which is a very strong carcinogen.
Symptoms of aspartame poisoning include: unconsciousness, headaches, fatigue,
dizziness, nausea, palpitation, weight gain, irritability, anxiety, memory
loss, blurry vision, fainting, joint pains, depression, infertility, hearing
loss and more. Aspartame can also provoke the following diseases: brain tumors,
MS (Multiple Sclerosis), epilepsy, Graves’ disease, chronic fatigue,
Alzheimer’s, diabetes, mental deficiency and tuberculosis. Later, this
substance was initially illegal due to its dangers but was again made legal in
a suspicious manner. E338– Orthophosphoric Acid. This can cause irritation of
the skin and eyes. It is used for production of phosphoric acid salts of
ammonia, sodium, calcium, aluminum and also in organic synthesis for the
production of charcoal and film tapes. It is also used in the production of
refractory materials, ceramics, glass, fertilizers, synthetic detergents,
medicine, metalworking, as well as in the textile and oil industries. It is
known that orthophosphoric acid interferes with the absorption of calcium and
iron into the body which can cause weakening of bones and osteoporosis. Other
side effects are thirst and skin rashes. E330– Citric Acid. It is widely used
in pharmaceutical and food industries. Salts of citric acid (citrates) are used
in the food industry as acids, preservatives, stabilizers, and in the medical
fields – for preserving blood. Aromas– unknown aromatic additives E211– Sodium
Benzoate. It is used in production of some food products for anti-bacterial and
anti-fungal purposes. It is often found in jams, fruit juices and fruit
yogurts. It's not recommended for use by asthmatics and people who are
sensitive to aspirin. A study conducted by Peter Piper at the Sheffield
University in Britain, found that this compound causes significant damage to
DNA. According to Peter, sodium benzoate which is an active component in
preservatives, doesn't destroy DNA, but deactivates it. This can lead to
cirrhosis and degenerative diseases like Parkinson's disease. Coca-Cola is
undeniably a very useful product. The key is to use it for purposes that do not
include drinking! Here is a video about Coca-Cola!
