Water Flavoring

I hope this is the right place for this.

So I hate the taste of plain water. I don't know why; it's just always been that way. It makes me gag and there's very little I can do about it.

Over the years I've tried to find a way around this issue. Different brands taste different to me; I like Smart Water the best but I'm still pretty averse to drinking it plain. Seltzers and 'lightly flavored' waters with just lemon or lime or cucumber or whatever taste really gross to me.

The best solution I've found thus far is in water flavoring. In years past, I would use brands like Crystal Light, which had this powder you would pour into the water, and then shake the bottle to dissolve it, and it would give the water a distinct flavor.

Thanks to the advent of Mio, these flavorings now come in liquid form in a huge variety of flavors (outside of the 'tea' and 'lemonade' flavors that Crystal Light came in).

So my question is, how unhealthy are these flavorings? If I follow the suggested amount on the container, is it particularly harmful to my health if I drink these flavored water drinks almost exclusively? I tend to avoid the ones with Splenda in them, as I know how bad Splenda can be. I'm also trying to break my diet soda habit which is why I'm switching to these water flavorings.

Please do not come after me insisting I just drink plain water. That is not my question and I have no interest in hearing you tell me about conspiracies with fluoride in water. I saw this happen in a previous thread and I will not tolerate it.

So yeah...basically my question is, are liquid water flavorings particularly harmful, and are they going to affect my clean eating if I use them in my water instead of drinking plain water?

Thanks!
