New product Wednesday, at Dallas-area stores: Health Cola
Is possible to have a NOT “guilty pleasure” and that is the purpose of Health Cola. This is why is Healthy …..
“It is well known that too much soda can increase the risk of diabetes” (1) HEALTH COLA HAS Natural Crystalline Fruict sugar, that the initial uptake of fructose is insulin-independent, and is classified as a low glycemic Index (Natural crystalline fructose Value GI~20, regular Glucose value GI 100, and the High Fructose Corn syrup GI 62) (2). “But when it comes to kidney problems, is there a difference between colas and other kinds of soda? Colas contain high levels of phosphoric acid, which has been linked to kidney stones and other renal problems.”(1) HEALTH COLA, DO NOT!! Contain phosphoric acid
We use real cola nuts and all natural ingredients. HEALTH COLA, DO NOT!! have Brominated vegetable oil (BVO)
"BVO is vegetable oil that has had atoms of the element bromine bonded to it. Brominated vegetable oil is used as an emulsifier in citrus-flavored soft drinks such as Mountain Dew, Gatorade, Powerade, Mello Yello, Pineapple and Orange Fanta, Sun Drop, Squirt and Fresca to help natural fat-soluble citrus flavors stay suspended in the drink and to produce a cloudy appearance.
Health effects of BVO in soda is that long after consumption of BVO, traces remain in the body fat.[citation needed] Bromine is a halogen and displaces iodine, which may depress thyroid function" (3)
