Ive read articles that say cola drinks contain phosphoric acid that removes calcium from childrens bones – is that true?
Most cola drinks do contain phosphoric acid – this is added to give a more metallic flavour as opposed to the fruity taste of citric acid. However, there has been concern that the phosphorus may lower the body’s absorption of calcium. Although this is widely disputed, we have decided to take the precautionary measure of removing it from our Panda cola.
