According to AFP, the highest chemical content was detected during the planned tests in one of the Coca-Cola companies in the city of Gent in Belgium. At the moment, most products with a higher chloratus content have already been eliminated from sale.
The review touched the drinks under the Brands Coke, Sprite, Fanta, Minute Maid and Tropico, which have been sold since November in Belgium, Great Britain, France, Germany, Luxembourg and the Netherlands.
“We have no exact numbers, but it is obvious that we are talking about a significant number,” said Coca-Cola representative in an interview with BBC, referring to the volume of drunk drinks.
The Guardian writes that chlorines obtained from chlorine are widely used in the food industry for water purification, but the greatest concentration of these substances in products may be that they threaten life, for example, it causes problems with the thyroid gland.
