FYI: Coke vs Water

Wassup yall... Here for another update on the marvelous blog known as Respect Our Hustle. I'm trying to grow the fan-base here, so if you guys don't mind, spread the word on the blog. Bookmark, tell your friends, all the etc.'s... it would really be appreciated (special shout-out to my homegirl Tasha, WATTUP!)
Now, as far as today's update...I'm going to take an unconventional route and do something new. I'm all about keeping this blog interesting and having you guys experience new things.




So for today I'm gonna do an update on Coke vs. Water (no, not that kinda coke you fiends!)... I found this on another blog, and I found it rather informing and interesting, and I know you will too... It includes some rather dope things you can do with Coke too...so for today, here is the F.Y.I. of the week, enjoy!

THE FACTS!


#1. 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated.(Likely applies to half the world population.)
#2. In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weakthat 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 pangsfor almost 100% of the dieters studied in a University ofWashington study.
#5. Lack of water, the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue.
#6. Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses ofwater a day could significantly ease back and joint painfor up to 80% of sufferers.
#7. A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-termmemory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing onthe computer screen or on a printed page.
#8. Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk ofcolon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breastcancer by 79%, and one is 50% less likely to developbladder cancer. Are you drinking the amount of wateryou should drink every day

COKE!

#1. In many states the highway patrol carriestwo gallons of Coke in the trunk to remove blood fromthe highway after a car accident.
#2. You can put a T-bone steak in a bowl of Cokeand it will be gone in two days.
#3. To clean a toilet: Pour a can of Coca-Cola into thetoilet bowl and let the "real thing" sit for one hour,then flush clean. The citric acid in Coke removesstains from vitreous china.
#4. To remove rust spots from chrome car bumpers:Rub the bumper with a rumpled-up piece of ReynoldsWrap aluminum foil dipped in Coca-Cola.
#5. To clean corrosion from car battery terminals: Poura can of Coca-Cola over the terminals to bubbleaway the corrosion.
#6. To loosen a rusted bolt: Apply a cloth soaked in Coca-Colato the rusted bolt for several minutes.
#7. To bake a moist ham: Empty a can of Coca-Cola intothe baking pan, wrap the ham in aluminum foil, and bake.Thirty minutes before ham is finished, remove the foil, allowingthe drippings to mixwith the Coke for a sumptuous brown gravy.
#8. To remove grease from clothes: Empty a can of Cokeinto the load of greasy clothes, add detergent, and runthrough a regular cycle. The Coca-Cola will help loosengrease stains. It will also clean road haze from yourwindshield.

F.Y.I.!

#1. the active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid.It will dissolve a nail in about four days. Phosphoricacid also leaches calcium from bones and is a majorcontributor to the rising increase of osteoporosis.
#2. To carry Coca-Cola syrup! (the concentrate) thecommercial trucks must use a hazardous Material placecards reserved for highly corrosive materials.
#3. The distributors of Coke have been using it to cleanengines of the trucks for about 20 years!Now the question is, would you like a glass of water?or Coke?
So next time you go to drink Coke... will you really end up drinking it?
