Crystal light in your water?

[Dipo]

So I drink a gallon of water everyday, but lately its been hard to get it down. Whats your thoughts on adding crystal light to it just to add a little flavor? I've already done the lemon, lime, and cucumber thing, just looking for a change and wondering everyones thoughts on it thanks

I like adding xtend scavation in a gallon and drinking it throughout the day. Great aminos and electrolytes. If your hitting the gym hard it definately helps IMO. I do like crystal light just never gave it much thought to drinking in bulk. Dont have a box around to look at the nutritional values but I dont see why not.

Thanks I appreciate it

Should be fine. And hey, Jay Cutler drinks it

But on a serious note, I also like Scivation Xtend - more costly, but definitely beneficial intra-workout.

If your drinking a gallon a day, remember you need about 2 on cycle ( idk if you are just saying). But anyhow I would worry more about spreading it out, when your very thirsty take advantage of it. I used fruit punch creatine, orange NO xplode, and choc whey, not all at once hehe. But if you spread these out and drink plain water each meal it healps out. Its funny how water makes you gag... its water ffs.

I used to drink about 1/2 gal a day of Crystal Light, but the aspertame gave me the trots. Like everything else, only consume it in moderation.

Definetly take something to help out your kidneys with all that fluid intake especially like when you add whey and other things. I know a lot of old dudes with kidney problems from trying to drink a lot of there proteins and energy supposed... unrelated topic kinda just heads up.

if you're concerned about being healthy, in addition to just looking good, then I wouldnt.

What makes ya say that binary?

 

[Dipo]

Is there alcohol in crystal light?

 

[alexus hensicus]

Sorry wrong thread no there's not.

What makes ya say that binary?

I think he might be referring to the artificial sweeteners in Crystal Light. They're in our BCAAs too. It's hard to avoid them in this game! I love Scivation's Xtend and drink it throughout the day. I'm not a fan of their new version, however, so I'll probably be switching brands soon.

makes sense thanks Rastas

yep. if youre drinking a glass or two that's ok I guess, but if ALL the water you drink all day has it in there, I wouldn't do that.

I drink the mango / rasberry flovored green tea all day from crystal light. Love it. How bad could it possibly be.
