Clear American Water

Okay before going on this lifestyle change, i dont like the word diet its like DIE you know i hate it, well anyway before this lifestyle change i was a severe coke drinker, and i had to have my coke and i think diet soda is disgusting like whats the point of it right? but i have recently found this drink with 0 everything called clear american water and it comes in a million flavors and my question is, is the drink bad or good? will it affect my weight loss? and has anyone else tasted them they are delicious lol!!

  • I've tried them before- and I agree that they are delicious! As far as if they're good for you- that depends on how you feel about artificial sweeteners. Some people don't like the idea in general due to how little is known about their affect on the body, but some people also tend to overindulge in other sweet things because their brains start to think that sweet doesn't necessarily mean calories.

    I think that as long as you incorporate it into a healthy way of eating it can't hurt- it is water after all!

    American water? Is that not trying to use your patriotism as a sales tool?

    I think it's a great idea. I'm all for protecting Precious Bodily Fluids.

    When I first read this topic I thought you were talking about regular tap water! Ha! I had to Google to find out what you were referring to.

    It appears these are the ingredients: Filtered Carbonated Water, Citric Acid, Natural Flavor, Potassium Citrate, Aspartame, Potassium Benzoate (A Preservative), Acesulfame Potassium. Phenylketonurics: Contains Phenylalanine.

    Aspartame is the same as the sweetener Equal and is in Diet Coke. I try to avoid fake sugars but I sometimes will use Splenda or Stevia.

    So we're calling soft drinks water these days?

    Ok sure the vast majority of the content is water, but you can say that about milk and we don't call that water.
