Health Risks of the Banana and Sprite
Let us consider what happens to your body when you take the banana and Sprite challenge.
“The banana supplies the protein and the cold soft drink adds a lot of carbon dioxide to your stomach. Your stomach is quite warm – much warmer than the soda – which means the carbon dioxide becomes less soluble at the higher temperature and gas bubbles are making a very fast escape from the liquid. The banana protein coats the CO2 bubbles and makes a very stable, expanding foam in your stomach. The creation of the foam means you can’t just burp to get rid of the CO2 in your stomach, but it has to get out somehow because your stomach is only so large… so an escape is made using its only available exit – mouth.” – Kieran Kelly, Consultant, The Boston Consulting Group.
