I know it got vitamins in it and I drink a lot of it , electrolytes n ****
 
just cuz its natural sugar and not high fructose corn syrup, doesn't mean its "good sugar", just that its minimally processed
 
No such thing as "good sugar".

Kinda like people smoking American Spirits because it has less chemicals, you're still smoking cigs, ya dig?
 
Vitamin Water and Gatorade all terrible. If you drink a gallon of water a day, you will be in the best shape of your life.
 
Vitamin Water is recommended after 30+ minutes of intense workout. But it's missing key ingredients that refuel and rehydrate your body which is sodium and potassium (ex: Gatorade, Powerade).

Only sugar that's good for you are from fruits because our body uses it differently. Everything else is processed.

Vitamin Water gives me gas.
 
It has crystalline fructose in it which, as far as I know, is as bad or worse for you than high fructose corn syrup. ....correct me if I'm wrong.
 
No.

Juice is in itself, basically poison these days.

Even OJ which is LOADED with carbs. 

A few years ago I got to shadow some Drs and one day they had this nutrition specialist come in and break down all the latest trends and studies on the topic.

HFCS is really nothing to play with and leads to staggering amounts of childhood obesity in record numbers. The sheer biochemistry behind enhanced amount of fructose in the body can wreak havoc on your system if you've been ingesting tons of it since you were a kid. 

On top of that, most kids don't need to drink the WHOLE bottle of gatorade. Merely 8oz will do, and often times not even that. Most of you all don't even need all that much "stuff" replenished in you.

Now electrolytes are good for you, no doubt, but you'll get most of them by eating healthy anyways. 

Water reigns supreme. 

Don't take this the wrong way, but most of that...well lets be honest...ALL of that stuff is the result of massive marketing campaigns and you just calling it "electrolytes and ****" really shows how easy it is for them to market random nonsense.

All you have to do is to pull some basic science words the general public really doesn't understand and give them some "official" backing or endorsement, then you've got people all over it. 

Everyone thinks they're immune to marketing until they go to buy something for themselves. 

My personal rule of thumb is this. I'll drink tea, coffee and water primarily. After that just alcohol. Why? Because honestly, once I have a sweet drink and it leaves my taste buds, I get NOTHING out of it. It just goes on to throw my sugar levels out of wack (I don't get sugar "highs") and i'll just feel sluggish for the rest of the day. I've grown to dislike sodas and stuff. Why the alcohol you ask? Well because if i'm going to poison myself I might as well get something out of it after I ingest it...a buzz, lowered inhibitions, etc.

I would think natural sugar from eating fruits is ok. You still need some sugar for energy and blood sugar levels. I went a few days without any type of sugar and had no energy.
 
Its funny because I know people that will buy a bottle of vitamin water for $1.50 every other day but won't pay 10 bucks for a bottle of vitamins. lol.

Your better off buying a multivitamin at costco/walmart and drinking regular water.
