I really try to stay as far away from
nutrition labels as possible. Food and I
are friends, not enemies, but I’m also a bit of a control freak, psycho,
obsessive compulsive (you get the idea) person and it’s better for all involved
if I don’t have one more thing that I can “study.” I do, however, usually check sugar contents
after doing a 10-day sugar free exercise which opened my world to a whole new
can of worms! [If you’d like to go
in-depth on this, let me know & let’s schedule a few hours.]
So anyways, I like to drink something with a
lot of nutrients post-hot yoga classes so I don’t, ya know, faint. Typically
this is in the form of a vita-coco or coconut water. Someone recently mentioned to me about trying
out odwalla so while at the grocery recently, I picked up a bottle for after
one of my morning yoga classes. Yikes.
The sugar content in one bottle is…wait for it……37 grams. GET OUT OF AMERICA. I
can see where these drinks are in some way good
for you – they’re made with natural ingredients & have no added sugar
(SUPER IMPORTANT) but I’m not sure I can get on board with these unless it’s a gulp
or 2 after a workout to get some nutrients in your body. Right?
Or if I’m wrong, please tell me because they are DAAAALICIOUSSSSS!
Isn’t it always the case that the prettiest
packaging turns out to be not so pretty for your insides?
