Is Pepsi Max bad for me…..?
I used to drink Pepsi, then diet Pepsi and now Pepsi Max. I love the stuff and i’ll be honest i don’t think i would be happy without it, if its not there i have to get some quick. but i maybe have a pint a day max.
I drink other soft drinks, smoothies and fruit juices, and i have the occasional cup of tea, hot chocolate or glass of wine. Otherwise i lead a healthy lifestyle, i dont smoke or have much alcohol.
Anyway my Dad keeps having a go at me for ‘drinking that muck!’ he reckons Pepsi is only good for ‘cleaning the brasses’ and made a point of showing me what happens if you wash an old penny in it.
‘That’ he says ‘is what its doing to your insides, its bad for you’
So is it?????
Its a sugar free vegetable drink and i can’t see what the fuss is about???
Please enlighten me…..
If it’s anything like coke here are some reasons why
ould not believe this….. Very interesting
WATER
1. 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated. (Likely applies to half the world population.)
2 In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak. That 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 pangs. For almost 100% of the dieters studied in a University of Washington study.
5 Lack of water, the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue.
6. Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain
For up to 80% of sufferers.
7. A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term Memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on the computer screen or on a printed page.
8. Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of Colon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast
Cancer by 79%., and one is 50% less likely to develop bladder cancer. Are you drinking the amount of water
You should drink every day?
COKE
1. In many states the highway patrol carries two gallons of Coke in the trunk to remove blood from the highway after a car accident.
2. You can put a T-bone steak in a bowl of Coke and it will be gone in two days.
3. To clean a toilet: Pour a can of Coca-Cola into the toilet bowl and let the “real thing” sit for one hour, then flush clean. The citric acid in Coke removes stains from vitreous China.
4. To remove rust spots >from chrome car bumpers: Rub the bumper with a rumpled-up piece of Reynolds
Wrap aluminum foil dipped in Coca-Cola.
5. To clean corrosion from car battery terminals: Pour a can of Coca-Cola over the terminals to bubble away the corrosion.
6. To loosen a rusted bolt: Apply a cloth soaked in Coca-Cola to the rusted bolt for several minutes.
7. To bake a moist ham: Empty a can of Coca-Cola into the baking pan, wrap the ham in aluminium foil, and bake.
Thirty minutes before ham is finished, remove the foil, allowing the drippings to mix with the Coke for a sumptuous brown gravy.
8… To remove grease from clothes: Empty a can of Coke into the load of greasy clothes, add detergent, and run through a regular cycle. The Coca-Cola will help loosen grease stains. It will also clean road haze from your windshield.
FOR YOUR INFORMATION:
1. The active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid. It will dissolve a nail in about four days. Phosphoric Acid also leaches calcium from bones and is a major contributor to the rising increase of osteoporosis.
2. To carry Coca-Cola syrup! (the concentrate) the commercial trucks must use a hazardous Material place cards reserved for highly corrosive materials.
3. The distributors of Coke have been using it to clean engines of the trucks for about 20 years!
Now the question is, would you like a glass of water?

Health Benefits for Green tea
Green tea has been relished by people in China and Japan for centuries; it has become more widely known and appreciated in the West over time.
A lot of people know that Green tea can be very beneficial to health but few understand the exact reasons why.
Green tea contains powerful antioxidants that help to prevent cancers. Evidence suggested that enjoying Green tea regularly as part of your everyday diet can help reduce the risks of colon, pancreas, rectum, stomach and bladder cancer by up to an impressive 60%. The main antioxidant that is found in Green tea; Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG as it is also referred to) has 100% more antioxidant power than vitamin C and up to 25% more effectual at protecting the cells from harmful influences. Additionally, not only does EGCG inhibit the growth of new cancer cells forming, it also helps to eradicate the existing cancer cells and leaving the healthy cells intact.
Green tea lowers the bad cholesterol (LDL) in our bodies and balances the level of good cholesterol (HDL). This explains why tea drinkers can eat a large amount of cholesterol and still have an equally balanced cholesterol count. It can help to stop blood clots from forming which would inevitably lead to thrombosis, this is of greater importance if you take into consideration that this is one of the main causes of heart attacks and strokes.
It reduces high blood pressure but suppressing angio-tension which causes the blood vessels to constrict which causes high blood pressure. Green tea effectively lowers blood sugar, (Polyphenols and polysaccharides being the main two antioxidants that are most effective at lowering blood sugar). It helps to prevent and alleviate symptoms of type-two diabetes.
Green tea protects the liver against harmful toxins, chemicals in cigarette smoke and alcohol to name examples.
It is ideal for maintaining good oral health as it suppresses the build up of plaque formation and destroys the bacteria that can cause bad breath.
Green Tea also aids the prevention of free radicals from ageing you prematurely and gives your immune system a boost due to the high concentration of polyphenols and flavonoids.
Green tea has been shown to possess antiviral and antibacterial properties. Studies conducted have shown Green tea halts the spread of disease and quickens ones recovery from cold and flu viruses. It also combats seven strains of food poisoning including botulism, staphylococcus and clostridium.
Green tea helps to stop dehydration by helping your body to maintain a healthy balance of fluid; it also relieves stress and fatigue which is often caused by dehydration. It also helps to stimulate the metabolism, give the calorie burning a boost and is commonly used as a key element in a healthy diet.
Black tea comes from the same plant as green tea but it will not give you the exact same benefits as during fermentation, a lot of its medical benefits are lost.
That said, tea in any form is still beneficial to health just that some are more so than others. The best way to preserve the nutrition of tea is to drink it freshly brewed, without sugar or milk and to let the tea brew about 4-5 before consuming it.
There are many different teas that we can choose from, one of the best available is called Tava Tea, it offers users a unique blend of the very best Chinese teas that will enhance weight loss, along with offering many other health inducing benefits.

Dry Vocal Chords, Bad Habits – Does this sound permanent or serious?
My regular dr. told me I have bad nasal allergies and my nasal passages leak into my throat while i sleep. I’ve been having dry vocal chords for about a month and a half now (started a new job 3 months ago where I do cold calls so I make about 50 ph. calls a day). I wasn’t aware that caffeine is bad for your voice, so I’ve been drinking lots of tea (i like my tea strong, so about two bags per cup) and coffee while i’m on the phone. Unfortunately, I also smoke and drink. It seems that when I stop talking so much it tends to feel better until I go out kereoking (sp?) or sing in my car, and then they start to feel tight again. It usually tends to be the left side that i sleep on that feels off. I really think it’s the tea thats the problem, because that seems to be when I start to feel dried out. Does this sound like something that will heal if I cut out the bad habits, or should I see a ENT (considering how expensive this might be, i’d like to avoid it if not necessary.)
Hard as it is, try to quit smoking. That’s the number one problem, even though the first few days you might cough a bit more. Next would be the coffee and tea, not so much because they dry your vocal chords out immediately but because they’re diuretics so you get generally dehydrated.
You could try drinking more water and having some cough lozenges around for when you’re doing your job. You could also gargle with salt water several times a day. I did this when I had a very talky job and it helped a lot.

Promised Land [CD-ROM] Queensryche’s follow-up to the double-platinum Empire is something of an acquired taste, but it’s well worth the effort.

The title track is probably the stronge… |
