does anyone here us MIO in there water?I know it has artificial crap in it... I'm not too worried about that honestly if its in moderation, no need to lecture about the harmful effects I am already fully aware LMAO .. but if you do use it do you count it towards your recommended water intake or do you use it as a treat?

    I use it, I love it and I absolutely count it in my water intake.. I measure out the serving of 1 tsp so I can guarantee that there are no calories in it.. But I take one of my 4 water bottles I drink a day and Liven it up.. Your adding it to your water so it counts!

    Great topic! I have been considering getting some. I love me some plain cold water, but sometimes a little flavor encourages me to drink even more

    I have the fruit punch MIO because it reminds me of the koolaide I loved as a kid. I only drink it maybe once a month, but when I'm totally tired of lemon, lime, and plain water, it works.

    It would definitely count towards water intake. Just don't count soda - it dehydrates you more than hydrates you. Some say tea counts and others disagree, so I'll leave that up to you. Although I agree that artificial sweeteners have other negative affects (possibly including weight gain), I don't think it affects how well the water hydrates you so feel free to count it!

    i love the pomegranate flavor. use a tiny bit in almost every bottle of water, it helps encourage me to drink more during the day!

    I would not count the Mio Energy towards your water intake because it does contain caffeine.

    As for Mio in general I think it's amazing! I can easily knock back my 8 cups a water a day when using it in my water. Plus I get pretty picky when it comes to drinking tap water from certain places but Mio makes it that I don't notice the taste of the water.
