OMG, seriously. I mean sure they have nutrients in it but most of the time you get most of everything you need from normal eating. But the worst part is that each bottle has 120 calories! My god thats more or less just as bad as a pop, just add like 20 more cals to it! And people chug those like water...
Energy drinks, protein shakes, and most supplements (outside of basic vitamins that you don't get in your diet) are all a waste too. Your body doesn't need most of it, and it can only take in so much at a time, so the rest just passes through you.Bio_Spark
calories give you energy, they really arent as bad as theyve been made out to be. Its just like carbs and all that other crap that they try to tell you is bad for you.
My sister buys 'oxygen enriched' water and she claims that it is extremely healthy. I tried to tell that water HAS oxygen in it already but noo. Shes blonde.
My problem with them is that there's not a useful amount of the vitamins/minerals in the drinks, so you're essentially paying even more for bottled water.

Protein shakes are a waste? and most supplements? lol... you should tell that to all the pro and amatuer athletes. Where else are you going to get 20-30g of protein a serving, in 200 calories and 4 carbs... you can't. Now, I'm not saying Vitawater is good -- I don't know much about it's purpose. However, things like Gaterade, high electrolite/low carb/cal drinks and Crystal Light, all have their place in a person's diet if they are serious about staying in optimal shape. Unless you work in a job that requires a ton of manual labor, like working on a far or being a roofer.
