<\/a><\/p>\nA different flavored drink also produced by Coca-Cola is Dasani that adds only four ingredients including water, magnesium sulfate, potassium chloride, and salt.\u00a0 By adding salt seems to me that it will make you more thirsty versus thirst quenching, but that is just my best guess, so go figure.\u00a0 Nonetheless, the ingredient magnesium sulfate is more commonly called Epsom salts, which has a considerably high number of internal and external uses from foot baths to soothe sore feet, a coagulant for making tofu, a brewing salt in beer production, and even commonly used as a laxative in other products.<\/p>\n
Those three ingredients I sort of understand, however using potassium chloride is one of those ingredients that really is hard to explain.\u00a0 The reason being is that this ingredient is directly used to stop the heart from beating during lethal injection.\u00a0 Yes, preciously the same practice of injecting a person with a fatal dose of drugs for the express purpose of causing the immediate death of the person sentenced by the judicial system to die.\u00a0 First comes sodium thiopental to render unconsciousness, second comes pancuronium or tubocurarine to stop all muscle movement except the heart. \u00a0Right after muscle paralysis and before asphyxiation, the same potassium chloride is injected to stop the heart from beating, and therefore cease life as we know it.\u00a0 Clearly flavored drink makers do not add the same amount of this ingredient as a dose of lethal injection, although it does offer food for thought<\/i>.<\/p>\n
