Former U.S. President Donald Trump stated that Coca‑Cola, at his request, has agreed to alter the recipe of the beverage sold in the U.S. market. According to him, the company now may replace high‑fructose corn syrup with natural cane sugar. However, this information has not yet been officially confirmed.
On July 16, Trump announced this news on Truth Social and expressed gratitude to Coca‑Cola executives. He emphasized that this move could only yield positive results.
At the same time, Coca‑Cola’s press office told CNN that no official decision has yet been made regarding the change. Company representatives acknowledged Trump’s interest in Coca‑Cola and stated that specific details about new products will be provided soon.
Currently, the standard Coca‑Cola sold in the U.S. market contains high‑fructose corn syrup. Trump’s initiative aligns with the country’s broader campaign to reduce artificial additives in food products.
According to Reuters, U.S. Secretary of Health Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has also launched an initiative to remove corn syrup and other harmful substances from food, pointing to high‑fructose products as a main cause of childhood obesity and health problems.
Meanwhile, medical experts recommend limiting the consumption of any added sugars. Scientifically, no significant differences have been found between cane sugar and fructose syrup in terms of impact on the body.
Interestingly, Donald Trump himself is known as a fan of Diet Coke. It is said that his Oval Office even had a special button to summon the drink. Read 'Zamin' on Telegram!
