What Happens To Your Body If You Drink A Coke Right Now?

Have you ever wondered why Coke comes with a smile? It’s because it gets you high. They took the cocaine out almost a hundred years ago. You know why? It was redundant.
  • In The First 10 minutes: 10 teaspoons of sugar hit your system. (100% of your recommended daily intake.) You don’t immediately vomit from the overwhelming sweetness because phosphoric acid cuts the flavor allowing you to keep it down.
  • 20 minutes:<!--skip translation--><!--end skip translation--> Your blood sugar spikes, causing an insulin burst. Your liver responds to this by turning any sugar it can get its hands on into fat. (There’s plenty of that at this particular moment)
  • 40 minutes: Caffeine absorption is complete. Your pupils dilate, your blood pressure rises, as a response your livers dumps more sugar into your bloodstream. The adenosine receptors in your brain are now blocked preventing drowsiness.
  • 45 minutes: Your body ups your dopamine production stimulating the pleasure centers of your brain. This is physically the same way heroin works, by the way.
  • >60 minutes: The phosphoric acid binds calcium, magnesium and zinc in your lower intestine, providing a further boost in metabolism. This is compounded by high doses of sugar and artificial sweeteners also increasing the urinary excretion of calcium.
  • >60 Minutes: The caffeine’s diuretic properties come into play. (It makes you have to pee.) It is now assured that you’ll evacuate the bonded calcium, magnesium and zinc that was headed to your bones as well as sodium, electrolyte and water.
  • >60 minutes: As the rave inside of you dies down you’ll start to have a sugar crash. You may become irritable and/or sluggish. You’ve also now, literally, pissed away all the water that was in the Coke. But not before infusing it with valuable nutrients your body could have used for things like even having the ability to hydrate your system or build strong bones and teeth.
This will all be followed by a caffeine crash in the next few hours. (As little as two if you’re a smoker.) But, hey, have another Coke, it’ll make you feel better.

Last time I was at Six Flags I saw this guy drinking coke and eating fried dough /w Oreos. I think that is the worst meal possible.

I'll bet I haven't had a soft drink of any kind in over 30 years. I used to love DR PEPPER.

Outside of the crown/coke once every month and a half or so, I only drink a coke (preferrably Cherry) about once a month. I have basically been like this for several years, but there is something in my brain that makes me fiend for it every once in awhile.

Everything in moderation..

I'm the same way. Occurs about once every 2 months I get a cravin for a cherry coke. Other than that, I hardly drink soda, and drink beer or alchohol about once a year. On that note, I smoke a pack a day, and don't care what I eat.

I almost died from COKE overdose...i was working in extreme heat and not eating, doing drugs and drinking probably 2-3 gallons of coke a day...seriously.

i started having chest pains and went to the hospital..15 mins later im strapped to a bed got the guy with the paddles standing over me, the whole 9 yds....they test my blood to see wats happening and it comes back what the doctor said was the lowest level of Potassium he had ever seen in a living person...the lack of Potassium causes muscles to cramp...and being the unluckiest S.O.B in the world..what muscle you think cramped 1st on me????
Everybody else gets lag cramps but noooooooooooo not me!
