Is this new fuze and filtered water a health craze or money craze?!


Question: Recently my school has started serving fuze drinks. I started reading the labels on the bottles and didn't really understand why the pitch was so centered on vagueness in the bottle's nutritional information Super Citramix to the rescu. After reading some posts at :
I found people who didn't like fuze. Anyone else think it's unhealthy effects are worse than the healthy? How good is it?

Also i found that :"Nowhere on Earth does de-mineralized water occur naturally. Distillation and R.O. systems produce de-mineralized water with an acidic pH. Many recent reports claim that "prolonged consumption of distilled or de-mineralized water can only lead to some form of mineral deficiency"." So is this the same as filtered water? Do we really get a noticeable (>.1%) of our minerals from water?

I think it's more of a promotion of waters and juices. You can classify it as "healthy" in the sense that they are generally healthier than sodas. Society is aiming towards a health revolution, and while it isn't perfect, I'd rather see a group of ten children drinking Fuze waters than Dr. Peppers.

Everything that's marketable is a money craze. Whether it's filtered or flavored, it'll be promoted as healthy and natural because that's what the general population is gearing towards.

Personally, I find Fuze water to be absolutely yummy. It tastes like juice versus FLAVORED water--I can't stand the taste of flavored bottle waters. They generally taste stale and dull. Fuze contains 5% juice. Certain versions (like the Vitalize version) are fortified with vitamins and anti-oxidants. And even still, I'd rather purchase a Fuze that'll make me feel fuller for longer than a bottle of Coke.

i guess so!
