Irrelevent. Trademarks and potentially dangerous levels of AL aren’t related.

Several websites report that the phosphoric acid contained in most fizzy drinks can lead to early loss of bone density leading to osteoporosis – any thoughts ?
(my wife has osteoporosis, and used to drink a lot of the stuff)

(1) I wish I had never found the problem (2) At the time when I found the problem I had been with Coke Bottlers for four years.

(6) The technical problem is only found in Coke plants using raw water containing a low level of suspended solids and less than 80 ppm alkalinity. (7) The test being used for aluminium testing did not respond to polymeric aluminium ions found in the water some hours after treatment. To make the test work when polymeric aluminium was present the sample has to be boiled with hydrochloric acid first. This was not being done. (8) To their credit Coca-Cola since my report have been altering water treatment systems so that the problem I described cannot occur. The only decent thing they did in the whole sorry story. (9) To the Coke drinkers aluminium is not toxic in the presence of phosphoric acid. To the fanta and sprite drinkers bad news aluminium is toxic in the presence of citric acid. The effects aluminium are also cumulative and long term if you have the appropriate inherited susceptibility.
I am sorry, but I don’t see what a trademark dispute has to do with kids’
health. Would you kind enough to tell us?

But This Does Have a Place
I am a chemist and for a number of years was the chief chemist for
some Coca-Cola franchised
bottlers.
At the last Coca-Cola factory I found a serious problem with the water
treatment.
Due to a technical property of the system Coca-Cola products were
being periodically produced
containing potentially toxic levels of aluminium.
The timing of the problem was such that it was being missed on the QC
tests. Also the test
procedure being used did not respond to aluminium in the form present.
I reported the problem, both verbally and in writing to The Coca-Cola
Company.
Consequences
I found myself out of work
Consequences
I found that representatives of The Coca-Cola Company had fabricated a
story that I was a child
molester and had circulated the story around potential employers.
Question
How many Coca-Cola plants with a similar water treatment system are
still producing?
