From the Coca Cola Website*
For years, conventional wisdom said that we need eight cups of water daily for
proper hydration. Not so, say new scientific guidelines from the The Institute of
Medicine of the National Academy of Science (IOM/NAS).
All beverages, including those that contain caffeine,
contribute to proper hydration.
Water mixed with bull!@#% will also give you water and you can absorb the poison in your cells with it.
These guys are smart. They realized that pretending to be into health is the new trend for young people and they’ve picked up on it. And just like every college age kid who accepts everything they are told from Michael Moore they will accept everything they are told by Coca Cola, except they wont know its them. They will think its a reputable source, like the Beverage Institute for Health and Wellness.
My generation are the pretend hippies. They are fighting the man and buying his products. I think the problem stems from today’s colleges. It’s this pseudo-intellectualism. Where everything you believe must be thrown out and you are taught to “think for yourself (like your professors)”. If I thought for myself I wouldn’t be going to school to be taught how to think. Sorry this is becoming an anti-college rant. I dont even remember why I was posting. I need some water…or I guess coke.
