Coke Zero. Healthy?

[Naki Rat]

In order to generate cancer tumours in lab animals they are fed a diet loaded with aspartame and nitrates. Coke Zero has the aspartame, and nitrates are commonly found in preserved (smoked/salted) meat.

Would you still like that Bacon burger with a Coke Zero on the side ?

Getting fat is the least of your problems.

it actually makes you fat???

No, its the fat that makes you fat.

These geniuses fed rats aspartame and fat, then when the rays packed on the fat they went, whoa, look at that, it must be the damn evil aspartame.



THIS EVIL MUST BE STOPPED.

I work for Coca Cola.

Our products are intended to be consumed as part of a balanced diet. Like any product and excess can cause undesirable effects, unless your partner dislikes flatulence, then feel free to drink Coke Zero by abundance.

Coke zero is so named because is contains zero cocaine (she don't lie you know). It also contains a small, agile japanese WWII fighter (the zero) and a hit song by Jenny Morris.

That's about all I can tell you about its secret ingredients.

As for bourbon - we all know it's better with Coke original.

PS: I don't really work for Coca Cola.

I just thought of a new advertising slogan....

"Crack a fat with Coke Zero".

[jasonu]

All propaganda has to be popular and has to accommodate itself to the comprehension of the least intelligent of those whom it seeks to reach

I like that line. A+ to you.

You ask is it healthy? It contains no nutritional value, so it is not healthy for you.

However I think what you really meant to ask is "is it bad for me". And everyone else has answered that.

Fuck!! Is that right?

No more water for me then.

Being serious,

The best thing you can do is fit a water filter tap to your kitchen. For you and your family.

The kids now drink more water, I even drink hot water as a coffee replacement at night and I also drink more water during the day.

Simply because council supplied water is awful to drink. I don't blame people replacing it with bottled / sugary stuff. When you have a much nicer tasting water replacement, you'll find your desire to drink coke and other products (without all the chlorine diminishes), since your water is now pure(r).

[Mully]

I remember reading of a woman, who chewed a packet of sugarfree gum a day, whose health started to deteriorate gradually. She went to her GP who couldn't find anything wrong.
Someone suggested she give up the gum, and within days her health began to improve, and within weeks was back to normal.

I prefer the bint from Auckland who lost 45kg (!!) in four months by consuming nothing but 10-14 cans per day of Red Bull. Oh, and sometimes a handfull of Honey Puffs

Following her "minor" heart attack, and two week stay in hospital, she managed to wean herself off it.

in sunny Churchur we have the best tap water anywhere.

We make our own soda water a lot. Sodastream + water + slice of lemon = the fizz that you love, but nothing thats bad for you. Refreshing and delicious. In fact I'm going to go fizz up a bottle right now.

[Daffyd]

You have to get your facts straight. It was a NZ chick, from Wellington, who was eating 4 packets of gum every day for over 5 months! What's that? 36 sticks a day? I'm surprised she didn't go to the toilet 20 times a day from the laxative effect. She probably did and then got sick cos of malnutrition. I can speculate too

Sorry, my memory fails me sometimes.

[Banditbandit]

We all know Coca Cola's Coke has tonnes of sugar. But how about Diet Coke or Coke Zero? The label at the back says 250ml = 3.7kj energy. That's what.... less than milk?

It's got 0 sugar.
It's got 0 fat.
It's got 0 calories
It's got 0 almost everything on the label.

What's the catch? My question is, will it make me fat? And what the hell is that Philomenimeninenimeneinm? Is that bad?


Lend me your KB wisdumb.

Leave a rust nail in a Coke botle for a week - if it's still a rust nail after a week then Coke Zero is probably safe to drink ...

[Banditbandit]

Yeah, I'm a caffeine addict too...V is my daily choice.

But healthy, no.

Hasn't the younger generation discovered COFFEE - all natural caffeine ... and add your own sugar ....

[imdying]

All coffee smells much like what I would expect the arse of a sailor from Captain Cook's day to smell like. You can keep it, I'll keep Red Bull.

[avgas]

Or just drink the original Coke and do a little exercise... I do 1 of those things

What he said.
Do some exercise fatty.

Coke is bad for you.
Coke zero just tastes bad for you.
However sugar substitutes are not actually proven safe. Where as sugars have about 100 years of research backing them up.

May as well be drinking 5w70 and eating Kevlar.
