Water v Coke

I dink water all the time. I have a Diet Coke once in a while but nothing like I used to. Since I've been drinking water, my skin is clearer, I haven't had a UTI in years.

Water gets my vote.

I should have clarified.

Quality Control in a beverage plant is the lab which makes sure there's the proper amount of acid, preservatives, sugar, and so on in the soda which makes it to the shelf. I worked in the lab for 2 years prior to being shanghaied into maintenance, supervision, and safety.

I used to drink Coca Cola like it was going out of style... I cut back a lot when I got pregnant with both of my boys and am trying not to return to my old ways now that I'm breastfeeding. Coke is my comfort item. If I am having a crappy day I can drink a coke and feel a lot better. If I allowed myself to drink a coke everytime I wanted one it would be all I would ever drink!!

It's good to know that all of those claims are bunk but honestly I think it would take a lot more than that to get me to stop drinking it

Well, I think the message intended by whoever the author of that read, is that water is more healthier than coke. And well, if you are in doubt of that, and your doctor tells you that it's more beneficial to drink coke than water for some unusual medical condition, then go for it !!!!! I for one wouldn't go back to a doctor who told me that....LOL.
I for one am not a coke drinker, knowing that IS bad for you.
