    I can't imagine drinking that much Coca-Cola per day is doing u much (if any) good. :confused:

    But as somebody kindly pointed out in an earlier reply, too much of anything is bad for you. Hell, even Freddie & Queen pointed out "Too much love will kill you, just as sure as none at all......."

    Personally the only time I consume the Cola is:

    A) with my favourite tipple ie. a large JD

    or

    B) suffering a severe hangover!

    Hope this helps?

    Try Caffine free diet coke. That can't be too bad for you, and will probably help wean you off it.

    Did an experiment in school years ago - put a tooth into a cup of coke for a few days and the tooth eroded away -totally dissappeared! :eek:

    The caffine is only half the problem, that is what get you so addicted to this poison. It is the various chemicals they use to make this stuff that is doing the most harm. Think about putting a little caffine in a toilet cleaner and getting addicted to that :cool: .

    I used to be addicted to Coke but not to that much! It is the taste and the combination of caffeine and coca extract that makes it so addictive I believe.

    And the guy that drinks 4 -6 litres of Pepsi Max a day...that is just scary.

    Why???

    Coke and all sugary fizzy drinks increase your biological age far beyond your actual chronological age. Your biological age is how old you are on the inside and can be older or younger than your actual age based on whether you're doing good or bad things to your body.

    There was a huge article in the Sunday Times about this a couple of years back. One of the people discussed in the article was a 15 year old boy who was drinking 2L of Coke a day. When they ran tests on him to determine his biological age, he had the kidneys and liver of a 47 year old man!! You can undo the damage though, and within about a year of quitting Coke he was back in the teens again.

    Oh and on the tooth thing - diet drinks are just as bad for you as the phosphoric acid in soft drinks causes as much damage as the sugar
