Do you really need us to tell you how bad it is for your body?

Same here. I have tried it, and it works like a charm.

If youve ever puked you know how acidic your stomach contents are due to the acid naturally in your stomach - hell - it has to dissolve steak in a few hours - a lot more acidic than anything you drink unless youre into 30% hydrochloric acid for appetizers.
The vinegar in pickles, as mentioned before - any fruit juices, tea, coffee - I could go on and on - all have high levels of acid components - hell even the new water drinks that are flavored and gatorade, crystal light - all have acid as well

But none come even close to whats already in your stomach naturally.

As far as the co2 - its in everything natural you eat - cant grow something without it retaining the carbon dioxide

Of course, cluless newbies who believe everything they read on the internet
won't believe it.

umm yeah well the best way i can explain it is that if you put a dime in a 20 oz bottle for a day or so it will disolve it in that time, kinda scary heh

The MASSIVE amount of sugars (corn fructose is a sugar) in soda can be a cause for concern specially for kids.

It depends, it's unhealthy for the body because of acid and sugar.

You have stock in Coca Cola or something. You're protecting it like the tobacco companies. lol

I do agree with you though. I drink about 200 oz a day of Diet Coke and no drain bamage yet.
