  • Is ten litres a day!

    At the weekend the Sunday Sport ran a story about a rather large lady who objected to Mr Osborne's new tax on sugary drinks because she drank the equivalent of thirty cans of full fat Coca Cola a day. That's the equivalent of about ten litres. Being the sort of person that I am I couldn't help wondering where all that fluid went but, sadly, that aspect wasn't covered. I could only imagine that either she spent rather a lot of time of the loo or else was permanently diapered. Put it this way, I know I'd be in a fix if I tried to drink ten litres of anything.

    A person drinking this much Coca Cola a day would not live very many years. See this article about another person who had a Coca Cola habit: http://jezebel.com/5903814/woman-dri...ola-a-day-dies

    In fact, the only thing keeping her alive from drinking that much liquid is that she was drinking a beverage with a lot of sodium. Otherwise, she would die within hours from hyponatremia as indicated in this story: http://www.scientificamerican.com/ar...ater-can-kill/

      Interesting. The young lady in question is, I believe, only 23 which might explain why she's got away with it thus far. I couldn't help wondering how she goes on with toileting, bearing in mind that she's 28 stone.
