    Let's put it this way. The acids your stomach creates would dissolve your flesh if not for a continuous layer of mucus being produced in your stomach and intestines. After you die, it does. Coca-cola doesn't even come close to the level of acidity that stomach acid (HCl, aka hydrochloric acid) does.
    Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

      Maybe not, but I'd rather use coca-cola to rid my battery of corrosion rather than go the Hari Kari route over it.

        Our body has an optimum temperature of 37 degrees for the functioning of digestive enzymes. The temperature of cold soft drinks is much less than 37, sometimes quite close to 0. This will lower the effectiveness of the enzymes and put stress on the digestive system, digesting less food. In
        BS. The same reasoning would make ice water or coffee unhealthy.

        Anyway, Americans have known about this for years. And we're smart enough to know that stomach acid itself is a lot more acidic than Coke.

          Drinking a 355 mL coke is exactly like eating 140 calories worth of candy and people need to be mindful of this when they go on consuming huge multi-liter size volumes of the stuff while wondering why they can't keep their weight down.


          Which is why you drink Diet Sodas

            That and the fact that sugary sodas are too damned sweet.

                  At least sodas are poisons that tastes sweeet, a kind of good.
                  Diet sodas just add insult to injury by tasting like crap.

                        Look at the statement you quoted -- he didn't say that he necessarily drank the stuff.

                          Coke Zero kicks so much ass it isn't even funny.

                            Well, actually I'm not worried about coke being dangerous. I don't drink it anyway. I drink Pepsi instead.

                              The guru is obviously trying to smear Coca Cola. If he was just about health he could have picked a less colourful example than "cleaning a toilet"

                              I mean if you were cleaning your toilet with [your favourite food] you'd kind of dislike [your favourite food] afterwards.

                              BTW. alcohol is also a good cleaner, does he advise people what to do with spirits?

                                I head water is a pretty good cleaning substance also.

                                Stop drinking water. Make it a national program. Change to... frozen fruit drinks or something like that.
