Coke's work with scientists was a 'low point' in public health history
A team of international researchers say the non-profit GEBN was 'front group' for Coca-Cola to promote that a lack of exercise, not a bad diet or sugar, is driving the US obesity epidemic.
Caffeine is a big one. I like milk tea and hot green tea but it taps out at about 60mg for a large serving. Some of my preferred smokier teas like hojicha and genmaicha have less than 30mg
But people out there drinking energy drinks and preworkout like crazy. Sure, a lot are thinner and more in "shape" visually than I am, but doing 300-600mg of caffeine per day PLUS the vaccines, I cannot even imagine the damage to their hearts and arteries
Those real sugar sodas are amazing though, and it is interesting how a small cup can really satisfy you or even help your digestion whereas people down massive amounts of the fake stuff. Even ginger ale and beer (which is great for sickness) is hard to find without HFCS (I hate corn syrup)
