Guest guest Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 HEALTH NEWS OF THE WEEK:WHAT HAPPENS WITHIN THE FIRST HOUR OF DRINKING A COLA? -10 minutes: 10 teaspoons of sugar hit your system, which is 100 percent of your recommended daily intake. You'd normally vomit from such an intake, but the phosphoric acid cuts the flavor. -20 minutes: Your blood sugar skyrockets. Your liver attempts to maximize insulin production in order to turn high levels of sugar into fat. -40 minutes: As your body finishes absorbing the caffeine, your pupils dilate, your blood pressure rises, and your liver pumps more sugar into the bloodstream. -45 minutes: Your body increases dopamine production, tricking you into feeling pleasure and adding to the addictiveness of the beverage. -60 minutes: The sugar crash begins.
