        *Can you 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 maths, 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
        aluminium foil dipped in Coca-Cola.*




        *#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 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 wind shield.*


        *FOR YOUR INFORMATION:

        #1. The active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid. It will
        dissolve a nail in about four days. also good for removing rust
        stains from stainless rigging. 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

        *#3.The distributors of Coke have been using it to clean engines
        of the trucks for about 20 years! *
