Bapak-bapak dan ibu-ibu, Berikut saya dapat informasi dari seorang rekan mengenai bahayanya minuman ringan. Mungkin ada gunanya, dan saya harap ini hanya dijadikan masukan, bukan bahan debatan. Nanti jadi rame... >Pepsi: read the following ...it is very important that for those who >drink too much of pepsi..... > >Production cost of Coke and Pepsi is just less than Rs.1, and see how >much they are charging intelligent and brave Indians. So what should we do ? Guess what's the pH of soft drinks, e.g. Coke? pH 3.4! This acidity is strong enough to dissolve teeth and bones! Our human body stops building bones at around the age of 30. After that it'll be dissolving about 8-18% of the bones each year through the urine depending on the acidity of the food intake (acidity does not depend on the taste of the food, but on the ratio of potassium/calcium/magnesium/etc. to phosphorus). All the dissolved calcium compounds accumulate in the arteries, veins, skin tissue, organs.This affects the functioning of the kidney (kidney stones). Soft drinks do not have any nutritional value (in terms of vitamins and minerals). They have higher sugar content, higher acidity, and more additives such as preservatives and colourings. Some people like to take cold soft drinks after each meal, guess what's the impact? 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 fact the food gets fermented. The fermented food produces bad smelling gases, decays and forms toxins which are absorbed in the intestines, get circulated in the blood and and is delivered to the whole body. This spread of toxins can lead to the development of various diseases. Think before you drink Coke or Pepsi or any another soft drink. Have you ever thought what you drink when you drink an aerated drink? You gulp down carbon dioxide, something that nobody in the world would advise you to do. Two months ago, there was a competition in Delhi University "Who can drink the most Coke?". The winner drank 8 bottles and died on the spot because too much carbon dioxide in the blood and not enough oxygen. >From then on, the principal banned all soft drinks from the university canteen. Someone put a broken tooth in a bottle of Pepsi and in 10 days it dissolved! Teeth and bones are the only human organ that stay intact for years after death. Imagine what the drink must be doing to your soft intestines and stomach lining! Request to All: Forward this message to your friends to increase the awareness of these soft drinks being produced by the so called GREAT USA.
