Doesn’t matter if it’s regular sodas, or diet sodas....when you consume two gallons a day, you’ve got health issues to eventually occur.

They’re crying out for coke regulation.

Heaven forbid anyone should exercise good judgement.

If only she had lived in NYC, she’d be alive.

And collecting welfare, no doubt.

I would like to see the numerical toxicity levels of cola he came up with. Sounds like an awful coroner to infer something he cannot measure and can only glean from unscientific claims. A test for cola metabolite? Really? Maybe he was confusing cola with coke.. yes, that we can measure. Who hired this guy? He has questionable credentials, I would infer.

I could count the number of glasses of pop I’ve had since 2010 on my fingers. Decided at that time I had no desire to become a fat old diabetic.

That much of it is no doubt bad for you but that’s her fault, not the coca-cola company’s.

they figured her habit wasn’t dangerous because Coke doesn’t display any health warnings.

By far the dumbest damn quote in this whole damned story and shocking example how we have all been turned into a a herd of &*^*&%! Sheep!!!!

1700 calories...+food......

Notice they don't say her weight. Bet she weighs over 400 pounds and has been on welfare AND MEDICAID for years and has an Obamaphone.

Anyone who consumes that amount of sugar daily is suicidal.

I remember the “Cyclamates (sugar substitute in sodas) causes cancer!” hysteria some years back. It was “proven” when tested on rats.

Cooler heads pointed out that the rats in question were fed the equivalent of a human drinking a 50-gallon drums worth of soda each day. No matter, damage was done, cyclamates were recalled, and the world was saved.

Others pointed out that the rats used were the Fischer 344 type rats (???), which got cancer even when injected with water.

The coroner’s surmise is credible. Coke and other soft drinks have a high level of phosphorous, and excess phosphorous interferes with calcium uptake and metabolism and causes hypertension and dangerous imbalances in mineral levels.

If it were regular Coke, that looks about like 3 to 3-1/2 lbs of sugar a day. That and the caffeine is probably what killed her. Full disclosure, I have no medical or dietetic qualifications whatsoever. But I do have a fair amount of common sense.

“they figured her habit wasn’t dangerous because Coke doesn’t display any health warnings”
. . . and then they poured Coke over their computer keyboard to wash it, because the Coke bottle doesn’t display any warnings about that, either.

I just looked at a five-pound bag of sugar. It has no warning about consuming too much of it a day. Down the hatch! That’s all the medical advice I need!
