Make your own flavored sparkling water drink |
It
is a common misconception that diet sodas will help people lose weight. While
the drinks may not contain sugar, the sugar substitute is not much better. In
fact, it can lead some to think that they might not be contributing to obesity
by drinking a diet soda. Forbes Living TV offers some beverage alternatives
which are better for us.
Drink
water. It is a natural hydrator. It is usually free or sold in bottles at a
very low price. It is portable, can be recapped to prevent spilling when moving
and can be flavored.
Sugar-free
juices are another good alternative. Some contain extra vitamins and minerals
to improve overall health. And most do not cost too much. They are usually sold
in boxes or small cartons.
Green
tea comes in a several forms and different taste varieties to please most taste
buds. Drink it cold from a can or bottle, or make it hot and add honey to
naturally sweeten it up.
Sparkling
flavored water will give carbonated beverage lovers the bubbly they desire with
no added artificial ingredients. Tonic water flavored with strawberry slices
and lemon or lime adds flavor and zip to the drink.
As
the weather becomes cooler and heaters come on, Forbes Living TV recommends
readers stay hydrated all year long.
Kick the diet soda addiction out in the cold with the above ideas or
tell us yours.
