This is  What a Coke Can Do For Your Body

We all know that soft drinks are not your body's best friends, so reports that Donald Trump drinks up to 12 diet cokes a day are quite alarming. So how exactly could this habit hurt the health of the president?

Well, although opting for the low-calorie option is probably better than consuming "complete" alternatives, Dr. Dariush Mozaffarian, dean of the School of Nutrition and Friedman Science at Tufts University, says that although "long-term" The health effects of artificial or low-calorie sweeteners are not well known, "the high levels of caffeine in these beverages alone have the potential to cause a lot of health problems, from nervousness, insomnia, migraines, faster heartbeats and more.

For more information, Cosmo UK decided to closely analyze how effervescent substances may be affecting its interior. They spoke with the pharmacist Niraj, who runs a blog called Renegade Pharmacist, and they shared this detailed infographic of what apparently happens after a single can of coke ...

According to Niraj, the amount of sugar found in a can of cocaine usually makes him vomit, but the phosphoric acid found in the drink "cuts off the flavor," meaning he does not throw. Beautiful.

Here is the truth about what coke does to your body:

In the first 10 minutes: 10 teaspoons of sugar hit your system. (100% of your recommended daily intake). It does not vomit immediately because of the overwhelming sweetness because the phosphoric acid cuts the flavor and allows it to keep it low.

20 minutes: your blood sugar spikes cause an insulin explosion. Your liver responds to this by converting any sugar you may have into fat. (There's a lot of that at this particular moment).

40 minutes: caffeine absorption is complete. Your pupils dilate, your blood pressure increases, in response your livers dump more sugar into your bloodstream. The adenosine receptors in your brain are now blocked to prevent drowsiness.

45 minutes: your body increases your dopamine production by stimulating the pleasure centers of your brain. This is physically the same way heroin works.

60 minutes: Phosphoric acid binds calcium, magnesium and zinc in the large intestine, providing an additional boost in metabolism. This is compounded by high doses of sugar and artificial sweeteners that also increase urinary calcium excretion.

> 60 minutes: the diuretic properties of caffeine come into play, which means you will have to urinate. Now you are sure that you are going to evacuate calcium, magnesium and zinc together that went to your bones, as well as sodium, electrolytes and water.

> 60 minutes: as the rave inside you goes off, you will begin to suffer a sugar attack. He may become irritable or lazy. Also now, literally, you have pissed off all the water that was in the coca. But not before infusing you with valuable nutrients your body could have used for such things as even having the ability to hydrate your system or develop strong bones and teeth.

A can of coke here and there will certainly not hurt you and, if that is what you enjoy, there is no need to give up taking an occasional frothy drink, along with a balanced diet. However, it might be better to switch to water, if you feel you swallow too much.
