Water or Coke?     I could not believe this.....  Very interesting!                        WATER #1.   75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated.           (Likely applies to half the world population)     #2.   In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak       that it is mistaken for hunger.     #3.   Even MILD dehydration will slow down one's metabolism as 3%.   #4.   One glass of water will 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 math, 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 by 79%., and one is 50% less likely to develop        bladder cancer. Are you drinking the amount of water        you should drink every day?      COKE    #1.   In many states the highway patrol carries          two gallons of Coke in the trunk to remove blood from          the highway after a car accident.   #2.   You can put a T-bone steak in a bowl of Coke           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 Coke removes       stains from vitreous china.   #4.   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.    #5.   To clean corrosion from car battery terminals: Pour           a can of Coca-Cola over the terminals to bubble           away the corrosion.   #6.   To loosen a rusted bolt: Apply a cloth soaked in Coca-Cola          to the rusted bolt for several minutes.   #7.   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 ham is finished, remove the foil, allowing the drippings to mix          with the Coke for a sumptuous brown gravy.   #8.   To remove grease from clothes: Empty a can of Coke          into the 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.   FOR YOUR INFORMATION:   #1.   The active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid.           It will dissolve a nail in about four days. Phosphoric           acid also leaches calcium from bones and is a major           contributor to the rising increase of osteoporosis.   #2.  To carry Coca-Cola syrup (the concentrate) the          commercial trucks must use Hazardous Material Warning          Cards reserved for highly corrosive materials.   #3.  The distributors of Coke have been using it to clean          engines of the trucks for about 20 years!   Now the question is, would you like a glass of water?   or Coke?       Send this helpful info on to your friends.
