ColaThe caramel coloring in brown cola contains a chemical that has been banned in other countries but not in America. It's called 4-methylimidazole or 4-MI, is derived from ammonia and has been shown to cause cancer in lab animals. It should be avoided even though safety levels for humans have not been established. Plus, cola carries a double dose of inflammation as there are nine teaspoons of sugar in one regular 12-ounce can. Sugar spikes insulin and brings on chronic inflammation. Anything that causes cancer is inflammatory, too, since cancer is the most inflammatory disease of all; anything that increases your risk of cancer sets you up for inflammation.
