H2O versus Coke
We all know that water is important, but I've never seen it written down like this before.
1. 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated (likely applies to half the world's 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 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 maths 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 79%,and one is 50% less likely to develop bladder cancer.
Are you drinking the amount of water you should every day?
COCA-COLA - No wonder coke tastes so good:
1. In many states in the USA, the highway patrol carries two gallons of Coca-Cola in the truck to remove blood from the highway
after a car accident.
2. You can put a T-bone steak in a bowl of Coca-Cola 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 Coca-Cola removes stains from vitreous china.
4. To remove rust spots from chrome car bumpers:Rub the bumper with a crumpled up piece of 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.
