  • Yes. Coke contains acid. That meay lead to stomach pains, especially if you already have problems with your stomach, such as ulcers.
  • On the face value of your question, the answer is no, if you referring to coronary chest pains. chest pains, caused by the gas of coca cola or any soft drink, can give you chest pains in the form of gas. sometimes it hurts pretty bad. i do not believe its serious. has happened to me since i open my first bottle of coca cola, back in 1947.
  • YES, for more than one reason. The caffeine in cola makes the heart beat faster, simulating signs of panic or a stress reaction. Panic attacks often simulate heart attacks. Asthma sufferers can get an attack of asthma when they are upset. Coca-cola is hard on the stomach. Often heartburn is confused for a heart attack. If you have cardiac problems, don't analyze - get help. ANY chest pain is a potential cardiac event and should be checked out.
  • I got a terrible chest pain yesterday with my first big gulp of a warm coke. It kind of freaked me out. Everyone is telling me not to worry but that it is gas or a bubble. I'm going to my doc on Monday, though. The answers I got from here did put my mind at ease -- enough to sleep tonight.
  • I agree with all of you. it's a bad chemistry this drink!

  • Only from the carbonation of the drink. Its called a "burp".
  • Coke is the worst thing ever for chest pains ive been drinking it for tweleve years and it kills my chest sometimes!
  • Sometimes, yes. Coke contains caffeen and that will cause your heart to race sometimes as well. I would say that, for most people, a couple of cans of coke per day are more than adequate.
  • If you have acid reflux Coke (or any carbonated beverage, particularly the acidic ones) could cause chest pains from the acid.
  • i think so i get a burning feeling in the back of my throat is this normal
