French magazine 60 Million Consumers published the results of the tests, saying that the alcohol levels are up to 10 mg per liter and this works out at around 0.001 percent alcohol.

The tests also showed “the presence of certain elements, such as Terpenes, which are known allergens.”

Other controversial ingredients include phosphoric acid, sweetener or coloring E150d (Sulphite ammonia caramel), with the latter having been recently registered by the State of California on the list of hazardous constituents to health.

Coca Cola and Pepsi Cola had announced that they would not use the ingredient in their products in the United States.

The survey revealed the high amount of sugar in the sodas, between 17 and 19 pieces of sugar per liter.

Muslim consumers of Cola are concerned because Islam forbids (Haram) them from drinking alcohol.
