The Dark Side of Vitamin Water

OMG! Wow....thanks for sharing!

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for sharing.....I've drank that water before but never as a vitamin suppliment and never due to fact I thought it would have no "caloric consequences" and would be good for me, any one with eyes that can read can see how much calories is in it.

To me it tastes like juice and should be treated as such.

I agree with pp......you have to read the labels of what you put into your body and not just believe advertising.

I was at the store and going to buy one.....then I read the label.....it went back on the shelf!!!!

Totally! I don't drink pop so I have had one of these for a treat now and then, but I was aware of the sugar content. I think Dasani has a vitamin water that has some sugar but not nearly as much.

Dasani is a Coke product.

Thank you for posting this. I assumed Vitamin Water was healthy and a better alternative to diet sodas. Now I know better.

ANYTHING is a better alternative to diet soda and a vitamin water or gatorade never killed anyone. Like everything else in life.....moderation!

I tried Vitamin Water but it made me feel sick after drinking it. I don't trust that stuff.

I think this is absolutely insane...a lawsuit over this??? I mean arent there more important lawsuits, than one holding the courts up over a drink! If people are really concerned about their weight, and what they are putting in their body for health reason, they are gonna look at the labels, and see that its not a healthy drink. The only reason this product has the name it does, is because its for marketing purpose...everyone is out to make money. A person who isnt conscious of what they are eating will look at it, and see vitamin water and go ohhh now that has to be healthy, but they obviously dont really look into what they are consuming, so they will buy it and theres the money! People get sue happy, and wanna blame other for our problems. Americans are over weight, because we dont hold ourselves responsible and want to blame someone else. Like everyone calling out the fast food joints...if we didnt buy food from there, they wouldnt be in business, but its always easy to blame someone else for our problems. I am wanting t o get healthier and lose a few lbs, but I know its MY fault for getting here, my fault for not watching what I was putting in my mouth....now that I have opened my eyes I see how bad I was eating...and somethings I thought were healthy wasnt...but my fault for not being responsible and taking control over my body and health! You take a drink of vitamin and can taste all the sugars in it....if people were drinking that, and being mislead, just shows me they really are clueless to what they are putting in their bodies...i read an article not too long ago about this product and some of the stuff people were saying...I am like really....do u see what you are saying, take control over your health, and not rely on someone else to do it for you!

I've drank both regular VW and Zero, also, not for the vitamin part, just as a better drink than soda (which I haven't drank since 4/9/10) I still drink the Zero on occassion as well as Sobe Lifewater Zero., though the Sobe, I drink more often.

I used to drink it - an my boyfriend too - until we heard it was owned by Coca Cola. I don't drink Coke (or eat McDonalds, BK, KFC etc) and I try to stay away from any Coke-owned products.

A friend of ours was absolutely gutted when my BF told him VW was owned by Coke, as he quite liked it! He's stopped drinking it as well.

We also stopped eating stuff from pret a Manger as it's owned b McDonalds apparently...

I have nothing against fast food, in moderation. But tbh I'd rather get a burger or fried chicken (although very rarely) from a chippy than from a global chain. You KNOW places like McD's don't take a smidgen of pride in the "food" they sell, so if I had a craving for something totally unhealthy at least I'd go to a local place where food is made on site!
