Probably a dumb question,

Nailrep

but is flavored water like Propel as good as plain old water?

iron93

of course not.

water is the best thing to drink.

You mean taste wise? I find Propel to be a little on the sweet side which is saying a lot since I put 1 1/4 cups of sugar in a 2 quart pitcher of kool-aid. :laugh:

I use the propel zero packets in my water some times. Of course it's not the exact same but there's days where i just want that flavor. I don't use it all the time though.

To me, propel has a funny taste to it. Its not the same as water but I drink a lot of MIO which taste better and I can also
add the amount I want so its not too sweet.

I've been told by my nutritionist.dietician and a researcher in sports nutritionist that all liquid counts, as long as it doesn't contain caffeine (since it's a diuretic).

There will be lots of conflicting opinions as you've already started to see. Carbonated or not, flavored or not, artificially sweetened or not - lots of opinions. IMHO - if the flavored water helps you drink more, then go for it! .

I add MIO to my water once in a while also.When you get tired of "just plain water" it is better to add some flavor and get the water in than not drink enough.. Good luck.
