So you want to know how can flavored water be a smart healthy selection? Then the questioning turns to what is stevia and how does it play out with smart healthy choices? We will open with flavored H20 and we will wrap it ip with the benefits of stevia.

When you combine flavored water with stevia natural sweetener to enhance the taste you get a no carb, no calorie beverage. Natural flavored waters with these characteristics are a smart health choice for the following reasons: 1. If you like the taste of water, you will naturally drink more water naturally and that’s great for hydration. 2. No carbs and no calories means this beverage is great for weight loss and diabetics. 3. Using natural stevia sweetener means nothing artificial and that means no increases in insulin levels.

“Quench thirst with water.” That’s what Time Out Chicago Magazine reports in their July 23-29 issue. They report that “71% of you said water is your favorite summer time thirst drink.” When it comes to thirst quenching, there is no substitute for water. But just like the second piece of pie isn’t as good as the first, neither is the second glass of water.

Water is the basic component in flavored water so it naturally keeps you hydrated. Problem with staying properly hydrate is: water gets old and sometimes you have no wants for another serving and typically reach for high caloric beverages, like juices and soda or coffee and teas. Most of these beverages are loaded with (HFCS) high fructose corn syrups and are nothing more than sugar water. Teas and coffees dehydrate you even though they are made with water.

Here’s the results from consuming typical drinks that have empty calories: 1. Typical person consumes 450 calories a day. 2. That’s twenty nine pounds annually in extra weight gain. 3. That’s just extra calories you consume in beverages and that you have to live with by choosing to add weight or work it off.

Making water taste better is what flavored water is all about. Hydration or re-hydration is the real value of drinking flavored water. Calorie free and carb free features add to the health choice decision as a low cost alternative to typical beverages.
