When it comes to fountain drinks, every restaurant business owner will agree that having soda fountain equipment is a great investment that drives their business. People who come to their restaurant want to feel at home and indulge on the finest ingredients at the dinner table, and always need a drink to cleanse their throat. Sure there has been a lot of buzz in the media about the bad side of soda, but not every business owner needs to serve soda. In fact having soda on the menu may have its advantages for some people.

A recent study published in the journal Alimentary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, showed that Coca-Cola is an effective solution to treat stomach blockages. A condition known as gastric phytobezoar has been making quite an impact on American consumers, but studies are showing that the acidic chemicals in Coke can dissolve material build up without resorting to invasive surgical treatment.

Gastric Phytobezoar is a blockage of the digestive system with vegetable matter that can be a result from eating foods high in fiber. In simpler terms, gastric bezoar is a mass of undigested matter, especially fruits and vegetables. These symptoms often go undetected, but those who are diagnosed with the condition are associated with having bad breath, nausea, abdominal bloating, pain, ulcers, and intestinal obstruction.
Researchers from the University of Athens Medical School confirmed the effectiveness of Coca-Cola for treating cases of gastric bezoars with a success rate of 91.3 percent. The study proves that the carbonic and phosphoric acids in sodas like Coca-Cola can help digest and dissolve gastrointestinal masses that are difficult to digest.  

On top of this news, having a soda fountain equipment at your restaurant or business is beneficial for numerous reasons. The fountain mixes soda syrup at the best quality for fresh and distinct flavor. Soda fountain devices are environmentally friendly and cost effective, which need little to no repairs during your service hours. Soda fountains even cut savings on use of recycled bottles, which according to the Recycling Institute more than 80 percent of bottles in America do not get recycled and waste away in landfills.
