So half of Glasgow wont be buying it.

This is for those who are aware of the dangers of sugar and aspartame, just not drinking sweet tasting drinks might be a better option.
Coca cola trying to break into the health market?.. :laugh:


'Why any sweet taste, coming with any artificial sweetener, raises glucose concentration in the blood *before* the food has a chance to be digested? Because your body knows that eventually, it will have all the carbs you've swallowed and it doesn't wait until it that happens and borrows real carbohydrates from its carbohydrate depots. When the sweet-tasted food is real, the carbohydrates eventually do get into the blood. And if they're not?

Being fooled, your body reacts rather vindictively: it forces you to * want* more sweets plus next time, you consume more calories with any food, including the innocent protein food -- to convert it into glucose in process of gluconeogenesis. So, you'd be better off without artificial sweeteners, Aspartame or not.

I bet they will do
a Cola lite - Scotch Mix Mash

BigSister 11-06-2014 01:35 PM

Ill try this because I cant have much sugar but might stick to diet coke and coke zero

Marsh. 11-06-2014 01:37 PM

Why've they made it look like Coca Cola Life?

And I agree, the green wasn't a very pleasant choice of colour.

reece(: 11-06-2014 02:03 PM

what will be the difference between this, diet coca cola, caffeine free coca cola and coca cola zero? :huh:

Just trying to make it sound better each time, yet it's still the equivalent of stuff you clean your toilet with.

michael21 11-06-2014 02:37 PM

T

Marsh. 11-06-2014 03:03 PM

But it looks like an "f". Not very good legibility wise. :hmph:

InOne 11-06-2014 03:30 PM

I don't drink fizzy drinks enough to care if it's diet, lite, max or whatever way they try to word it. Might as well just have the original version.

MTVN 11-06-2014 03:40 PM

According to the article it is called 'coke life' not 'lite'
