Coca-Cola may be the "most valuable brand in history," but it's much smarter to use it as a cleaning agent, than to actually drink it. Many people are unaware of just how bad Coke is for the human body – its pH level rivals that of battery acid – but once you see how its corrosive properties make it such a good household cleaner, you might think twice before ever putting it in your body again.The ever-popular soft drink is anything but "soft" – that's what makes it so effective at cleaning stuff. If something that can be used to strip paint, dissolve rust, descale toilets and clean car engines might not seem like something you should ingest, you're absolutely right – yet millions of people continue gulping down gallons of it on a daily basis.Here are just a few of the things Coca-Cola can be used for around the house, according to the group Anonymous:1. Removes grease stains from clothing and fabric2. Removes rust; methods include using fabric dipped in Coke, a sponge or even aluminum foil. Also loosens rusty bolts3. Removes blood stains from clothing and fabric.4. Cleans oil stains from a garage floor; let the stain soak, hose off.5. Kills slugs and snails; the acids kills them.6. Cleans burnt pans; let the pan soak in the Coke, then rinse.7. Descales a kettle (same method as with burnt pans)8. Cleans car battery terminals by pouring a small amount of Coke over each one.9. Cleans your engine; Coke distributors have been using this technique for decades10. Makes pennies shine; soaking old pennies in Coke will remove the tarnish.11. Cleans tile grout; pour onto kitchen floor, leave for a few minutes, wipe up.12. Dissolves a tooth; Use a sealed container...takes a while but it does workIf Coca-Cola can dissolve a tooth, think what it must be doing to your stomach lining.Learn more: http://www.naturalnews.com/053046_coca-cola_household_cleaning_strong_acid.html#ixzz40sMHmm1v
Doctors have warned that 'flat Coke or lemonade could be dangerous to children suffering stomach bug,s' the Daily Mail has reported. It said new NHS guidance warns that the myth that sweet drinks can rehydrate sick children can actually make symptoms worse.
Not sure I fancy pouring coke over my battery terminals, or anything like that.
