Drinking Coca-Cola makes men's testicles bigger.
A new study conducted by researchers at the Northwest Minzu University in China has revealed that the consumption of soda increases testicle size and testosterone levels for men.
The experts were attempting to determine the impact that fizzy drinks have on fertility and sex organs in men and the studies conducted on mice demonstrated that their testes increased in size after drinking Coke and Pepsi over a 15-day period.
Previous studies have linked carbonated drinks to harming reproductive functions but the team found that the opposite was true when it came to testosterone - the male hormone produced mainly in the testes.
The study authors concluded: "Drinking Coca-Cola and Pepsi-Cola could promote testis development and enhance testosterone secretion... our findings provide the scientific basis for fully understanding carbonated beverages effects and their mechanism on development and reproduction functions of humans, and how they benefit the prevention or prostate dysfunction or cancer."
