We are what we eat?

[Andrew MacLean]

Drinks with caffeine are probably not a good way to re-hydrate, although they will make you feel less thirsty. The problem with caffeine is that it is a diuretic (it causes increased passing of urine).

I wonder if you have ever tried other sugar free drinks that do not have caffeine?

You can get caffeine-free diet coke but diet coke is not a good drink and carbonated drinks affect calcium absorption.

i drink 12 lites a week,of diet coke

Elizabeth that is really bad for you, fizzy drinks [even the diet versions] can contribute to the development of osteoporosis, and it makes you more thirsty as Andrew says because caffeine is a diuretic. I used to drink lots of diet coke till I found this out so I've taken to drinking more iced water and fruit juice.

NOw, an All-Cake diet sounds good.
Of course, we could go for an all-cheesecake diet. Thqt ought to be good for the calcium levels!
Though the people who think dairy product consumption isn't good fo their lens tolerance might be a bit torn there.

It is now 12.26 a.m. and I fancy both cheescake and a massive glass of coke. Thank you ladies!

On a hungry stomach, with dribble running down my chin, goodnight.

Good for you but I reckon the cheesecake is better for you than the coke!

[Andrew MacLean]

cheesecake and hot chocolate would get my vote.

[Loopy-Lou]

Vic's lemon cakes get my vote, she has made them for me and I've eaten them iced and warm from the oven *Homer Simpson style dribbling*

If anyone home bakes or knows somebody that does I hold many a qualifation in cake testing. I also do not charge.
