Anybody drink Vitamin Water?

[EllenFrasier]

I like Vitamin Water. My favorite is SOBE and I get it at Target. They just had a sale, buy 10 for $10 and get a $5.00 Target gift card, so that's 50 cents a bottle. Not bad, right?

Dh thinks that vitamin water is a waste of money and that it's not good for you. It sounds like it has some benefits to it on the bottle. Anybody heard otherwise?

Not if I were stranded in the desert. It taste like pond scum to me and I sincerely doubt that it contains anything that is actually beneficial.

Don't drink it. It's expensive, I hate the taste and it's pretty much sugar and water.

I started drinking Glaceau Vitamin Water Zero about a month ago when I decided to stop drinking diet soda and any food that contain Aspertame, because of the bad effect Aspertame can have on your body. I like the taste of the Vitamin water plus I feel it is good for me. I drink 1 or 2 bottles a day in addition to 2 or more bottles of regular water daily.

I like Vitamin water, but Sobe is my favorite too. I like the Acai berry one. I don't drink pop at all, I drink alot of water, but sometimes I like something with a little flavor to it. I usually drink one Vitamin Water or Sobe a day, sometimes two.

I only drink the no calorie versions of flavored waters. While I don't think they have any true health benefits, they work to hydrate.

I don't really like them. My kids like them so I will buy them from time to time when they are on sale. I view it as pop with a vitamin added. Not healthy, but it could be worse.

I quit drinking soda over a year ago. I drink tons of regular, plain, old-fashioned water, but sometimes I get tired of it and want a little flavor. I enjoy an occasional Vitamin Water. My faves are cherry pomegranate and grape berry. I try not to drink them too often, though, because of the sugar.

Today Show just had a segment (this week, I think) about "Drink This, Not This." They said Vitamin water was OK but to drink the no sugar version (it has zero calories compared to the regular one). Nothing super great about the drink but he said it was OK on occasion to drink the zero cal. one.

I take vitamins and drink filtered tap water. That way I still get my vitamins and don't get the calories.

I HATE drinking plain old water so I drink Glaceau Vitamin Water---the only flavor I like is "revive". Makes drinking water somewhat tolerable....plus I could definately use the calories!
