Jonathan's Spoons Review and Giveaway!

IT'S A BONUS DAY!  
Make sure you check out my Funky Chunky Review!


Today's Featured company on The Speedy Gourmet is:


Waterlicious giveaway


Waterlicious is an all-new flavored bottled water line specially formulated for children featuring a wide variety of tastes kids enjoy – and parents approve.  It is the first vitamin and fiber-enhanced flavored water for kids, Waterlicious provides a healthy alternative to high-calorie, high-sugar sodas and concentrated juices.

 I love this idea.  I don't much like my kids drinking soda, and there are only a few alternatives. I am thrilled to know of  a healthy kids drink that is also full of vitamins. This one has it all, and I cannot wait to let my daughter try it.  Here is more information on Waterlicious from their website:

Fiber - a key element in preventing child obesity – is an essential ingredient contained in each and every Waterlicious  flavor, along with essential vitamins for healthy growth and development of strong bodies, including B3, B5, B6 and B12.  The “B” group of vitamins also are identified for their ability to relieve stress and promote a calming effect on children while strengthening their immune systems and other vital organs.  Waterlicious also contains Calcium and Vitamin C further increasing the water’s health benefits for children.

In contrast to the high-fructose corn syrup and artificial sweeteners found in other children’s soda and juice products, Waterlicious contains Crystalline Fructose, a natural fruit sugar that is slow to absorb and does not adversely affect blood sugar levels.  

Waterlicious is made from the finest purified water. The all-natural flavors featured within the Waterlicious line include Soccer Berry, Super Apple, Peach, Lemon, Pineapple, Grape, Watermelon, Cherry and Strawberry Banana.  It contains no color additives, and will not stain if spilled (good to know!)


The Waterlicious mission:
Our mission: To develop and market healthy and fun vitamin and fiber-enhanced hydration products that children and parents love, and create sustainable value for investors, customers, and the communities we serve.

I was really happy to see that their products contain no sucralose. A lot of companies are using this but still saying they do not use artificial sweeteners, as the laws for those do not apply to sucralose (labeling and such).

Hi,
My google alert for HFCS picked up your article. Please do not consider crystalline fructose (pure
fructose) to be a healthy alternative to HFCS or sucrose (table sugar). It is the fructose part of both HFCS and sugar that causes longer term health problems:
obesity, type II diabetes, cardiovascular illness. Glucose, the other sugar found both in sucrose and HFCS can be metabolized by any cell in the body. Fructose can only be metabolized in the liver, and this is the problem, because when fructose is eaten in abundance it is preferentially coverted to fat. Why are manufacturers using crystalline fructose as a sweetener? First, due to public awareness via the internet, there has been a recent decrease in our consumption of HFCS, not a lot, but enough that the Corn Refiners Association launched their publicity blitz so reassure us that HFCS was "o.k. in moderation".
The result is they've got extra fructose on their hands and they need a way to sell it to manufacturers. Secondly, they've changed the name so that it sounds a little better. Sugar was the devil in the 60's and HFCS is the problem in the 00's, so why not give crystalline fructose a shot. It sounds so clean and pure, "crystallized fruit sugar".
I'm a afraid this manufacturing switch is similar to the one they
pulled on the public for MSG. Products still contain MSG only now it's listed as "autolyzed yeast extract." You might read what Dr. Mercola's website says about crystalline fructose.
To your health. Take care.
