(Video) Here’s What Really Happens If You Only Drank Coke

Coke is actually a carbonated soft drink manufactured by famous The Coca-Cola Company. It was invented in the late 19th century by the one and only John Stith Pemberton and was bought out by businessman Asa Griggs Candler, whose marketing tactics led Coca-Cola to its dominance of the world soft-drink market throughout the 20th century. The particular drink has inspired imitators and also created a whole classification of soft drinks. So many selections.

It can do some pretty strange things. And the ingredients inside of it might be even more bizarre. Just imagine what it’s doing inside your body after you drink it. Can you imagine only drinking Coca-Cola for the rest of your life? The effects that the soft drink called Coke brings to your body would be so surprising. How bad would coke affect humans?

A single can of Coke has 39 g of sugar. To get your daily fluid intake, you would need to drink over eight cans of Coke each day. That is 312 g of sugar. It would be a lot of extra sugar, not to mention the extra calories. Coke intake alone would be nearly an extra 8,000 calories a week. But that would not be all. There are actually a lot more health issues.

This sugary drink could also cause you to eat more as well. And with all these extra calories, it would lead to some serious weight gain. As you drink more Coke, tooth decay would also be a severe issue. Each sip of Coke would coat teeth, tongue, and gums for hours after you’ve finished your soda. The sugars would slowly break down your enamel.

One of the main ingredients you’d need to worry about is high fructose corn syrup. That’s because our bodies do not metabolize it. This could lead to a fatty liver. Symptoms of a fatty liver include fatigue and pain in the upper right abdomen. Due to all the sugar, caffeine, and others, you would also experience a lot of problems with your heart rate.

As time goes on, you would also have a massive risk of getting Type 2 diabetes, and loads of vitamin deficiencies. And if all these issues continued, and you decided to ignore them, you could develop proteinuria, which could then lead to kidney problems. That is why it is better to just save drinking Coke as a treat rather than to have it every day in life.
