Check the Sugar Content on That Vita Water

If you haven’t read it yet, check out this item from Men’s Health entitled “America’s Unhealthiest Drinks Exposed.”

The blog post exposes the sweet but dirty secrets of vitamin waters and supposedly healthy Jamba Juices. The culprit? Sugar.

Pay close attention to the Baskin Robbin’s Large Heath Bar Shake (32 oz), rated THE unhealthiest of all, racking up an outrageous 2,300 calories. Really? I can’t say I ever ordered it…but it sadly looks yummy.

[But OMG…when did journalists look, well, so picture of health? Check out the MH editor.]

  1. Sugar might be not so good for you, but I am sure that the article said nothing about the sugar substitutes especially ASPARTAME. If you don’t know it, read, search and find out. It is in almost all gum (sugarfree is usually the hint, but juicy fruit actually has both sugar and aspartame). This stuff is so bad for you that it makes sugar look like something natural that god gave us and if we just had a little temperance… I am not afraid of sugar. I can say no. I am terrified of aspartame, because most people are ingesting it to some degree and you have no clue as you are trying to communicate with them and their minds are altered.
