hi.
there is no literature yet saying that drinking Coca-Cola causes colon cancer. but any commercialized food product is a potential carcinogen. also, coca cola is high in sugar, and too much intake might lead to other medical problems such as diabetes. too less or too much of anything, generally speaking, is bad for your health. so take things in moderation.
hope this helps.
good day!!
