Anyone here drink Vitamin Water?
 

I got curious about Vitamin water so I checked out the ingredients

I saw this shit called Crystalline Fructose and was like WTF?

fun stuff, let me tell you

and what is it made of? (check out #2)

crazy, they say this stuff is actually WORSE for you than High Fructose Corn Syrup

and it is in a HEALTH FOOD DRINK

LOL

Yeah ive always heard that vitamin water isnt that great for you. I drink a product called Immune Fizz, you add it to your own water, i really notice a difference with that. Only prob is unless you live in Seattle you can only get it from Costco or online

Damn it you had to tell. I figured this out some time ago and have been avoiding stuff containing it (mostly health foods). Hoping it would knock off some more hippies before it was outed.

ROFL...the ironic part is that here where I live there are a LOT of hippies, and naturally we became friends with quite a few of them, and they turned on us to it...haha

now I have to print this shit out and take it to them cause god forbid hippies get a real job that affords them internet so I would be able to email it to them haha

yeah, we have something similar we drink about once a week called Emergen-C

Yeah, i have tried that too. I prefer the immune fizz, much nicer taste imho

damn I haave some in my fridge, Think I may just go back to plain old water. seems everything has somthing that is bad for ya in it..

this is good stuff :)

That emergen-c stuff is sweetened with fructose too, by the way

the key I think is to cut down on the sweet tooth and learn to drink things that are very very lightly sweetened, preferably naturally

this stuff is awesome:

i could care less about the sweetner, I drink coke like it is water

it is the um...ARSENIC! lol

I do hate tea though, never cared for it or coffee

thanks for providing source links Jace. i appreciate it.

ROFL

just type in Crystalline Fructose to google

really...it isn't that hard

there is nothing unusual about the data you presented. you are needlessly scaring yourself. the levels of arsenic and lead are almost nonexistent. i am sure there are higher levels of both arsenic and lead in your drinking water. and furthermore, simply breathing the air in atlanta will have a far greater health toll than consuming Crystalline Fructose over your lifetime.

really?
.

lol the coke you drink probably has exactly the same arsenic levels etc

the basic thing is you are getting zero nutrition out of drinking coke, it's a chemical mixture that hardly resembles anything naturally food like that one would want to be putting into their body

That's why I don't drink shit like that.

not scared at all, I ingest toxic shit all the time, I just get sick of companies throwing all this crap into our "health food" products...if you are going to tout your products as being healthy, at least use healthy ingredients

and considering I don't actually live in Atlanta i doubt it about our water being unhealthy, I saw our water tests from the water company in our little town and we have some of the cleanest drinking waters in georgia, not to mention our PUR filter filters most of that out if the water company didn't already get it

I don't drink or eat anything for health reasons, I just find it absurd that someone can market a health food drink and it contain shit like this

i can't believe you all don't think that is crazy, but this is gfy after all, for every reasonable there has to be 5 or 6 people to come in and defend or fight about that reasonable reaction..LOL

damn, gfy is fucked up, made a grammar error above and by the time gfy loaded it was too late to edit...sorry

regardless of who like to fight on gfy or not, it is crazy that people market a health food product and don't use healthy ingredients in it

To hell with those health drinks. Coke still rocks.

I don't recall Vitamin Water ever being marketed as "healthy". A quick look at the nutritional level kept me from ever buying the first bottle. It's basically different flavored Gatorade with a few herbs and/or vitamins tossed in. The amount of actual vitamins is minimal.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

man thanks for the heads up, I thinking about trying some but now im not.Its soda with a vitamin label.

just told my oldest daughter... not gonna let her have that anymore

i havent ..but i love rockstar energy drinks ..

Not only is Vitamin water not that great for you...it tastes like shit, even with 10 grams of sugar thats in it.
