I myself love mountain dew. It is the beverage of my choice. I am second thinking it since I read this news article at Read Here Now!
Even The Office of the Surgeon General issued a warning. Oh god am I going to die

Dude, this past summer I was swilling down between 32 and 64 ounces everyday during a 2 hour period in the evening to keep awake while studying for an Intensive Summer Anatomy Class. That stuff had me so wired it wasn't even funny. I only crack out the "pure" stuff (read non-diet) when I got a test

yeah thats a joke, but on the serious side Mountain Dew contains Yellow #5 which has been proven to shrink the fiberous tissue in mens penis's. Dont do the Dew if your thinking of Doing anything else

ohh yeah i also forgot, the phosphoric acid (dont know how its spelled) in soda also steals calcium from your bones. Happy drinkin

prtlewd... in layman's term
He was talking about the calcium disorder other than osteoperosis... so i think at least 
by the way, wasn't this about mt.dew to begin with and not calcium deficiency?

The only way soda steal calcium is your body has a calcium storage problem (not present in 99% of people). I had an arguement with my GF about this and showed her the clinical research on this.

"not present in 99% of people"
Osteoporosis is more commen than 1%
but that is true, all it does is prevent your body from absorbing calcium so your body has to take it from your bones to substitute.

Hehe, osteoclast activity, or rather overactivity, in the remodeling cycle is what forms the basis for osteoporosis. Basically you body breaks down for too long before it builds up.
I was referring to endocrine disorders, like maybe a parathyroid tumor or something where the calcitonin isn't functioning properly and your bone reserves are messed.
Sorry to ramble like this, but this was exactly the topic of the lecture we had today. Tomorrow we have 3 hours of osteoporosis....Oh Joy!

I hate to admit that I was confused by our esteemed friends' jibberishlecture but, alas, I was confused! I figured if sodi pop had something to do with mining the calc. out of by poor brittle bones then I want to know how.
