2kool4school Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 i was over-exaggerating it...i drink ALOT of soda in a day...Thought so.Try flavored seltzer or sparkling water. The type without sweetner of fake sugar. No calories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fkornre Posted April 24 Author Report Share Posted April 24 there is 0 cal in fruit 2 0...5mg of sodium is all that is in it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2kool4school Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 Fruit 2 O has some sort of sweetner in it. I am not a fan of any types of fake sugar even though it has zero calories. Fake sugar is much more harmful than the real thing. I drink seltzer or sparkling water that is flavored. Nothing but carbonated water and natural flavor.

fkornre Posted April 24 Author Report Share Posted April 24 i am not an expert or anything but i would think carbonated water beverages would be worse for u than sucralose or any other nonnutritive sweetner... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guccichic Posted April 25 Report Share Posted April 25 This may sound stupid but I'm not a fan of water either and the only way I can drink it is with A LOT of lemon in it. I found it definitely made a difference and now I don't mind drinking it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clubbingirl Posted April 25 Report Share Posted April 25 i used to hate water & i drank alot of orange juice, or maybe the blended orange mango, etc juice. i slowly diluted the juice (1/4 juice, 3/4 water) and now i converted completely over to water. and get my fruit from actual fruits. i also have a nalgene bottle at work and i fill that 32 oz'er 2-3 times a day. or try drinking tea.

Guest onisakura Posted April 26 Report Share Posted April 26 I think that any kind of water type drinks like fruit 2 0, propel or whatever is a huge improvement over sodas but bottom line is that nothing is better than plain ol water. Drinking a gallon of water is ideal becuase that is what it takes to flush out your system.I drink water all day long even though i hate having to leave my desk a million times a day to go to the bathroom and when i want something with flavor i drink crystal light. It has aspartame but its better than soda. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mursa Posted May 15 Report Share Posted May 15 Water all the way ...i drink about a gallon a day ..keeps me hydrated and my skin in good condition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
houze-kitty Posted May 16 Report Share Posted May 16 i am not an expert or anything but i would think carbonated water beverages would be worse for u than sucralose or any other nonnutritive sweetner...i worry alot about fake sugar stuff lately though. That shit IS a chemical, after all. Ive been trying to buy things made with Splenda. Supposedly it"s made from sugar but i still dont quite understand how. I think im going to go do some research and find out. Ill report back later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
houze-kitty Posted May 16 Report Share Posted May 16 ok heres the deal on Splenda, guys. Ive just come across some very contradicting articles on the stuff, but my overall feeling is----its NOT natural, therefore its probably NOT good. They make this stuff in labs, people. Its not what its made out to be. As much as i love soda, I think im gonna start weaning myself off of this shit. Ive been drinking diet soda for years, not to mention putting it in my coffee too. Water is so much better anyway, but sometimes I really need something different to drink, too. Ill keep looking for something else. Any ideas?

Any ideas?usually the sugar substitutes are worse than real sugar...but u have to look at the amounts being used...i dont think the 5 or 10mgs in 1 bottle of fruit2o is bad for u...but in high amounts it prob is...

gambitrah Posted May 16 Report Share Posted May 16 i only drink water, not as much as i should im sure but i try. IMO drinking carbonated anything is counter productive as it dehydrates you more then if you drank straight water. I know water is plain...but that doesnt bother me. I will make koolaide with splenda or drink teas if i get bored with it. I'll have a soda a month (usually mtn dew) but everytime i do it makes me feel ill..kinda like every few months i have to hit Mc Donalds for their breakfast stuff to remind me why i cant eat it loledit: I meant to add to above about soda.. that caffeine is a diuretic and will actually dehydrate you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
