So what DOES happen when you drink Coke?

[CaptainAwesome]

You mean this one?

I can't remember...it was a while back. But yeah, it had the same result.

[meridannight]

Coke-cola recently released(in the U.S.) Coke-cola life, basically coke sweetened with cane sugar.

that thing has been around for a long time now. did they release it in the US only now?

Coke-cola Life, yes i believe so, I only recently seen it available on shelves here. As for soda's with cane/natural sugar, a few have been here, but mostly as imports and in small quantities.

Jaxc: If you eat a healthy, balanced diet, your food contains sufficient natural sugars for your body's needs. There is no need to overload it with anything further. Read what the Renegade Pharmacist has to say.

Thanks for the advice, and I'm already trying to eat better(though there's still room for improvement), plus, i only really drink soda of any kind, let alone regular soda, very seldom. For the most part now a days, Ginger ale and sometimes rootbeer are my favorite carbonated beverages...and sometimes beer :biggrin:

It also makes a very effective rust remover.




So now think what it's doing to your stomach

If you have a "hopelessly" rusted cast iron skillet to restore, you can immerse it in Coke and you will be amazed at the result. Rust gone.

Coke made with cane sugar is available here. It is made in Mexico and has a very different taste than the more commonly available formula.

As for boiling down Coke, it reminds me that Coke syrup used to be available from the pharmacy. It was used to calm upset stomachs. Maybe still is.

PrinceAofB, I think you may e referring to fructose. It is metabolized more slowly than glucose.

There is really nothing new in the blurb that is circulating about what happens when you drink Coke. Just another way to sell papers.

I had a pepsi today so I'm good right:p

[supasyd]

in Britain, I'm pretty sure it's made with actual sugar. You only really see corn syrup in stuff inported from America. I could be wrong though! Most acidic food is the same - the key is to enjoy all things in moderation!
