Am I the only person addicted to Coca Cola?

Question

Seriously - I have to drink some every day or I feel like there's something missing.

I don't drink a huge amount - maybe a 330ml can each day or a 500ml bottle.

But I'm starting to worry. Anyone else have the same thing?

Answer 1

Some internet sources claim that they put still put coca extract from coca leaves in it (without the cocaine). I am kind of addicted to it. It does give me energy to get my spring cleaning/painting done (even without caffeine in it).

Answer 2

You bet, we all can easily develop what is known as a "sugar habit". That is why Coca-Cola is such a world wide money machine.

Answer 3

No, it's bettar than coffee, for a boost!

Answer 4

Obviously not or it would not have been around for over a hundred years.  If you're so worried why not just simply cut back a small bit everyday and maybe change it up and drink some Diet Coke.

I only drink Diet Coke, but there is worries with that as well with the artificial sweetener.  I've made myself drink more water every day and try to keep the pop to one can a day.

Answer 5

I have an addiction to diet Pepsi that way.  I worry too.  I wonder if sometimes there is something in there that makes us want it like an addiction.  It is just so good and refreshing and that is what my tastebuds want.  LOL  They say it is the caffine but diet Pepsi is suppose to be extremely low on caffine and I dont drink coffee or teas.??/

By the way, my brother is the Coca Cola addict in the family.

Answer 6

yes I did have it and many people i know, but it is not as serious as drug addictions and other kinds of addiction. if you really want you can start reducing the amount you are drinking and change into better kinds of drinks like juice.

Answer 7

its the caffiene in the coca cola thats making you addicted to it , its ok to drink som but its incredibly bad for you teeth,

it can disintagrate a tbone stake on on month imagine what its doing to your teeth

Answer 8

Nope, I'm addicted too.  I can't go without it!

And as addictions go, it's pretty harmless. It's not like it causes drunk driving accidents or anything.

Answer 9

No your not alone my sister has a coke in her hand at all times, my friend will have to have a coke the minute she wakes up as well, if there is none in the house she will drive miles to get one.

Answer 10

No but it really is the caffeine in it that you are addicted too.

As long as you get plenty of water to offset the dehydrating effects of the caffeine and as long as you do not have more than 300 mg of caffeine a day you will be fine.

Answer 11

its normal

Answer 12

your not the only one with that problem admitting you have a problem is the first step!
