HYPNOTISM has been hailed as the solution for a 41-year-old supermarket worker in the UK, who's apparently been cured of a two-decade addiction to cola.
Andy Currie, from Bangor in Wales, says he's used to start the day with a bottle of Pepsi each morning, following it up with another nine litres or so of the fizzy drink before bedtime.
A Newsweek report estimated he drank the equivalent of about 219,000 cans of Pepsi in his lifetime, with the cola habit costing about $10,000 a year.
Warnings he may develop diabetes led him to an exercise and diet regime, but he just couldn't seem to kick the Pepsi.
He contacted London therapist and hypnotist David Kilmurry, and apparently broke the habit after just one online session of hypnotherapy - with the breakthrough seeing him drink water for the first time in 20 years, the report said.
"I don't know what he said, but afterwards I just didn't want to drink it any more," the cured Currie said.
