Yes, it does show you how strong the human body is when its young. But over time, it breaks down like a car does. So, if you either want to have disease early in life thats your choice. Your brain is 85% water and your body overall is 75% water so it would seem logical to drink water. You lose a lot of water when you sleep from digestion, breathing, and other life sustaining processes. Have you ever wondered why your **** is always yellow when you wake up; its because the body has used up alot of water. By drinking more pop doesn't help the situation because your body is making up for that water that you don't drink from other cells within the body. Also, soda pop is considered a diuretic which takes water out of your body. So, instead of drinking water your flushing water out of your system with however many cans of pop you drink a day. Do you remember who Michael J. Fox is? He is the tv actor that was diagnosed with parkinsons disease at the age of 30 which is considered an old man's disease. His case was that he was addicted to diet pepsi (which contains aspartame which is an excitotoxin). So, its your choice to have disease early in life or later in life at the age of 70 and not at the age of 30! Just use common sense and not your taste sense. But its your choice and free will to do whatever you want and I am not going to stop you. I am just providing some info that maybe useful to think/ponder about for a while.

I love diet pepsi. I hope that the light version is not more worse than the normal coke. But after I heard that, I will think twice before I buy the next six-packs... Water for me tastes good too :cheeky: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Specs Posted April 8, 2002 Share Posted April 8, 2002 Mmmmmm Distilled water! My cousin got so sick from drinking 2 cans of Coke a day, he got Ulcers in his small intestine. Man he was messed up for a long time. It took him almost 2 years before he could eat and drink anything acidic. So it's doing SOMETHING wrong to our bodies!

altezza Veteran Posted April 8, 2002 Veteran Share Posted April 8, 2002 I drink water everyday. It's natural to drink...rather than Coke or Pepsi or other. Gimme ice water and it will cool me down during summer! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadishTM Veteran Posted April 8, 2002 Veteran Share Posted April 8, 2002 Its very hard to choose between Coke, Pepsi and Water, since I like them very much, but after hearing all these stories on this thread, ill give a second thought before drinking Coke or Pepsi :D Radish.

digital.death Posted April 8, 2002 Share Posted April 8, 2002 I like a Coke occasionally, but Water is better. Lots of Caffeine + Lots of Sugar = Diabetes :dead: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
