Tom Brady recently called Coca-Cola "poison" during a radio interview, especially for children. Coca-Cola responded, highlighting their wide variety of beverages, including low-calorie options. Let’s break this down:

Sugar

Excessive sugar intake is linked to numerous health problems, including obesity, cancer, heart disease, and mental health issues. A 12-ounce can of Coke contains 39 grams of sugar—well above the recommended daily limit of 25 grams.

Acidity

Coke has a pH of about 2.5, making it highly acidic. This can damage teeth and interfere with digestion and nutrient absorption.

Ingredients

Coke contains chemicals like sodium benzoate, acesulfame potassium, and aspartame. The latter, in particular, has been linked to symptoms like dizziness, headaches, and even seizures. Some research even suggests a connection to conditions like multiple sclerosis and brain tumors.

While Brady may have his critics, on this topic, he’s spot on—Coke provides no nutritional value and can harm your health.
