When Water Is No Longer Water

H2O , 2 Hydrogen and 1 Oxygen atom.  It’s a simple compound structure so why is it that the water sold in groceries store look like these?

Skinny Water? Really?  

Last Time I checked water 'is' clear

Didn't Know 'guilt' is an ingredient

Hard to see on this Picture but sugar content is 13g

Couldn't you just get regular water and just add lemon or Lime?!

Bottled water exponential growth in the industry placed in nearly every supermarket, convenience store and vending machines where dozens of brands compete for consumers' dollar. No wonder we are confused cause water is no longer water it is a beverage loaded with sugars and chemicals just like it’s cousin Soda Pop and packaged neatly like a high end shampoo bottle.  

Water water everywhere but which drop to drink?  We should take into account the unnecessary ingredients in these store bought flavored water.  Think about it this way, we protect our selves from potential danger.  We put on our seat belt, lock our doors, etc. why not take extra caution before you grab a Gatorade, or a Sobe.  The structure of water is parallel to cellular function so why deviated from it’s original composition of just  H2O.  When purchasing water, factor in pH level.  Choose  a drink that is pH balance. It must have a pH close to 7.  Not only it’s important for our body’s cellular mechanism but also a beverage that is high or low in pH affect the strenght of your teeth.

If you want to justify luxury by buying high end water that is a personal choice but know what you are investing before that cash register goes ‘ka-ching’.  What is exactly is the ph level on any of these drinks ranging from sports drinks to purified water free of dissolved minerals.  The question is “Are you worth it?” and should never apply to the product.

Fancy French Water...oui!
