Mio – Liquid Water Enhancer
I have a few people on my team right now who are just starting P90X and trying to kick their soda habits. I know how hard this is to go from soda to PLAIN water so I decided to make this post for all of you looking for ways to help make the transition. I drink about 8-10 cups of water per day and one of the things that helps me do this is MIO. I use to drink a few cans of Mountain Dew per day along with 2-3 Rockstar Energy drinks. I know where you all all coming from and I know how hard this is!
There are a few different flavors and the price ranges between $2.50 and $3.50 per bottle. This is 24 servings at 8 ounces per serving! My favorite flavors are Strawberry Watermelon, Berry Pomegranate, and Fruit Punch. The nutritional facts are below. They are the same for all the flavors. So if you are trying to kick your soda habit, this is my tip for you!

According to MiO, “MiO is sweetened with Sucralose, a calorie-free, artificial sweetener that is 600 times sweeter than sugar. Generally, non-nutritive sweeteners are calorie free in finished products because they impart high sweetness intensity and are needed only in very small amounts to give desired sweetness to a product. Artificial sweeteners provide sweetness without adding calories to help individuals watching their calorie and sugar intake. To maintain color and freshness, MiO does use certain preservatives and artificial colorings.” The ingredients for Mango Peach includes: Water, Malic Acid, Propylene Glycol, Citrict Acid, Contains less than 2% of natural flavor, Sucralose and Acesulfame potassium(Sweeteners), Potassium citrate, Polysorbate 60, Yellow 5, Yellow 6, Red 40, Potassium Sorbate (Perservative).
