Vitamin coke a solution?
Diet coke plus is believed to be slated for release in 2007. This healthy coke brand will be fully loaded on nutrients and minerals. Wonder what it will taste like. Cornflakes loaded with vitamins tastes just like B-complex vitamins. Suits some palates,not all.
There was a time when deficiency diseases were quite common and now with cereals being nutrient fortified there is a nutrient overload problem.Common deficiency diseases like rickets, pellagra and goiter have almost disappeared in rich countries.But now with the daily dietary supplement and overly nutritious processed foods, people are having more than the recommended dietary allowance(RDA).
Consequences of too many vitamins and minerals include problems with your bones,liver and even heart. The risk is higher for children,pregnant women and the elderly. Make sure that you have just the recommended amount of nutrients and if you are having a nutrient-fortified meal, stay off the supplements. Check the labels for nutrient content and be wary of how much you consume.
I guess that would be another reason to stay away from coke, even in its latest avatar!
