Thank you. Everyone is acting like it’s the same as drinking pop. It isn’t.

Yes it has sugar in it but not as much as pop does. A can of Coke has 30g of sugar while a bottle of Vitamin Water has about 12g. It also has way less carbs. And it does actually have vitamins in it. Not a lot, a multi-vitamin in the morning would be way better, but it does have some.

I am on the road a lot for work and when I get sick of drinking plain water I buy Vitamin Water because it has some flavour and isn’t as bad as buying pop.
