7. Flavored or Infused Water
Water that is enhanced by adding in natural or artificial ingredients is known as flavored water. It may also be sweetened with sugar or other artificial sweeteners.
Pros
– If drinking plain water seems too boring to you, brands like Hint and Propel can give you a different and tasty alternative method of staying hydrated.
– There’s a multitude of flavors you can choose from. Flavors can be added by infusing the water with fresh fruits and vegetables as well.
Cons
– While fruits and veggies can be added, chances are that the flavored water you buy at the store was enhanced using artificial additives.
– Most brands also use artificial sweeteners, which makes it harmful to those with diabetes. It may also cause weight gain and potentially impact those with allergies to artificial sweeteners.
