Natasha Harris, a stay-at-home mother of eight, died in February of 2010 of a heart attack at the age of 30, the Associated Press reports.
She drank between 2.1 and 2.6 gallons of the soda every day her partner Chris Hodgkinson testified.
"The first thing she would do in the morning was to have a drink of Coke beside her bed and the last thing she would do at night was have a drink of Coke," Hodgkinson said in a deposition. "She was addicted to Coke."
Hodgkinson said this week that Coca-Cola should put warning labels its products, New Zealand news site Stuff.co.nz reports.
Dr. Dan Mornin testified Thursday that Harris probably suffered from hypokalemia, or low potassium, as a result of her Coca-Cola habit, the site reported.
The toxic levels of caffiene in the product could have also contributed to Harris’ death, Mornin testified.
