cant stand the taste of water

gypsyrose85

It does not matter where the water source is from I can't stand the taste. I have used many filters (including the brita), Water straight from an underground spring, (crystal springs in Plymouth NH is just one of these places.) I gag while drinking it.

Some people swear by water enhances like Crystal Light to help with water intake. What about drinking herbal tea? Then dilute it a bit more until you are basically drinking water.

Honestly, I'd just get over it. I didn't like water at first, now I crave ice cold glasses of it. Water is good for you. Make healthiness a priority over tastiness.

Dr. Oz has a "recipe" for water - I believe it's listed on his site. It contains lemon, cucumbers, mint and a few other ingredients. You mix it all together in a pitcher and let it sit in the refrig overnight. You might want to try it to see if you like it.

You're not alone. I don't hate it, but I don't like it either. I drink water maybe once a week. I just drink powerade zero, coffee, diet soda, tea, and zero calorie energy drinks. It hasn't hindered my weight loss at all.

I add a little lemon juice to my water - makes it bearable! I find in the winter, I need to drink it room temperature... but it is all I drink (except on weekends when the beer comes out haha) :drinker:

I don't hate water, but get bored with it so I sometimes use Mio and other things like crystal light to add a little flavoring. You can add as much or as little as you want. Lemon juice and cucumber slices as others have mentioned can be tasty too.

I use the water enhancers like Mio. Except I'm a cheap guy so I use the Wal Mart Great Value brand. It makes my mouth think that I'm drinking kool-aide. Maybe you could try that?

I do lemon juice sometimes but my favorite is to throw some chunked fruit into it and let is soak.

So I will fill a pitcher with water and throw in some chunked up strawberries then drink the pitcher.

I just add vodka. It helps a lot.

Best of luck in your journey!

Flavored seltzer might help.

Water isn't my preference, so I drink green tea as often as not. The point is hydration without adding calories.

I agree.. water is UGH... I'm horrible, I even put non carbonated energy drinks in my water bottle LOL.

Dr. Oz has a recipe for being a schlub for whoever pays him the most. He has it perfected.

The taste of coke, beer, OJ, fries, mozzarella sticks, and double whoppers is sooooooo much better.

Try adding fruit slices to it, or maybe drink tea or coffee without sugar or other low/no calorie drinks.

I disagree....sounds like there are a lot of us that can't stand the taste of water.

Crystal light is my choice to make water drinkable :-)
