 Rumor: Delhi University student dies chugging Coke |
 |
| This rumor claims that a university student in India died from too much CO2 in his blood after drinking eight bottles of Coca-Cola too quickly. |

Our Response: Carbon dioxide, when added to water for carbonation, is not harmful upon ingestion. Like other food ingredients, carbon dioxide has been reviewed by regulatory authorities worldwide and its safety has been confirmed. Carbonation has no documented negative effects on the gastrointestinal tract or on general health. The story about the student at Delhi University is not true.
