Olympic swimmers are turning to good old soda to rid the e-coli that they might be consuming by swimming in the River Seine during their tournament.
Several world-class stars are tired of complaining about the pathetic and unhygienic water conditions of the river, explaining how it does not take rocket science to confirm that the water is not clear.
From the color to the texture, swimmers cannot stop ranting to the event’s organizers about how tired they’ve become of this behavior.
And since the complaints seem to be falling on deaf ears, there’s just one way out. Surprisingly, that’s Coca-Cola as their savior.
Many of them are swearing by the hack, adding how this drink helps stave off bacteria and any kind of infection they might get from competing in these open waters.
‘If you Goole this hack, it works. So why not?’- another shared.
Doctors also spoke about how other is no medical background that justifies the claim. But many athletes are turning to professionals and for them, it’s working so far.
Some athletes explained how they’ve encountered all sorts of trash in the river, things they cannot even speak about publicly. One swimmer was seen vomiting after the race, explaining how it was hard to hold his breath for so long.
