Always read the label
May 13th, 2010
There are so many things wrong with this ad that I don’t know where to begin. Obviously, we know much better now than to give our babies sodas for the benefit of their health. At 140 calories and 39 grams of carbs a can, I am also fairly certain that most of you ladies out there know to avoid sodas altogether.
That being said, there is a newer offender out there. It’s the sugared, high calorie beverage masquerading as a healthy drink choice. Here are a few:
Vitamin Water: 20 oz. bottle yields 150 calories and 39 grams of carbs
Sobe Energize: 20 oz. bottle yields a whopping 250 calories and 67 grams of carbs
FUZE Healthy Infuzions: 18.5 oz. bottle yields 180 calories and 46 grams of carbs
Hidden calories in drinks have a sneaky way of sabotaging our dieting efforts. Here’s a hint, if the first few ingredients in the drink are sugar or some sort of fructose, step away from the product. Just stick with water, lots of water.
