Of the Coca-Cola variety that is sad
Seems i *need* on average 1/2 cans per day and often i drink alot more then that, sadly they have these "party packs" whereby you can buy a dozen cans for half nothing and i just pig out sad

Thing is, i get headaches alot, and i drink a can and it goes away...is this a caffeine thing?

Has anyone had experince of this and possibly offer advice?, thank you.

Caffeine ain't all bad though. I drank some of the new MCD Iced Coffee."Yes"
And it was just fine. I even felt better later. Like energized. Not, hot coffee.

You could be hungry, sleepy, or in need of a big glass of water.

If it is due to an addiction to caffeine, you can ease the withdrawl pain with Motrin. smile

Good luck.

Hey Liberation,
The headaches are probably not just a caffeine thing. Coca Cola is bad for the body. Check out the below article:


http://waterindustry.org/...ola-1.htm:

- Water vs.Coke -

WATER

1. 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated.

2. In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is often mistaken for hunger.

3. Even MILD dehydration will slow down one's metabolism as much 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


Coca Cola:

1. In many states (in the USA) the highway patrol carries two gallons of coke in the truck 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 2 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: Applying 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 aluminum foil, and bake. Thirty minutes before the 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 a load of greasy clothes, add detergent, and run through a regular cycle. The Coca-Cola will help loosen grease stains.

9. It will also clean road haze from your windshield.


Coca-Cola Facts

1. The active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid. Its pH is 2.8. It will dissolve a nail in about 4 days. Phosphoric acid also leaches calcium from bones and is a major contributor to the rising increase in
osteoporosis.

2. To carry Coca-Cola syrup (the concentrate) the commercial truck must use the Hazardous material place cards reserved for Highly corrosive materials.

3. The distributors of coke have been using it to clean the engines of their trucks for about 20 years!

Now the question is, would you like a coke or a glass of water?

I also was way addicted to coca-cola! then I was watching some show on the health channel and they show how much sugar is in one coke, almost made me faint.
I exchanged it with ice-tea, I get the same caffeine buzz, and now I add equal!
