There's just too much sugar in pop, it's bad for your teeth and your pancreas and...did you ever clean a dirty old penny in a glass of coke? Think about what that can do to your insides...
It's bad for your teeth, but your stomach acid is about the same acidity as Coke.
Just like anything else, everything is poison, and nothing is without poison, only the dose permits something to be non-poisonous.
I enjoy the occasional coke, but I won't be drinking multiple ones a day.

That sounds like a marketing success. They are selling you water...
At least with Coke or Diet Coke people like drinking it because they like the taste.
I bet there is no reliable research proving it's better for you than regular water.
To me the alkaline craze is just another fad diet like detox, and think people are being suckered in by pseudoscience.
