Before my last trip home I decided that I was going to go and grab some Airborne and boost my immune system so as not to catch a cold during my visit and my flights. I started drinking a glass two days before I was to leave… but as I was sitting at my desk drinking it something tasted funny… I was trying to figure out what it was and after about an hour it came to me. Wait a minute! I know this taste! Its fake sugar! And sure enough I grabbed the bottle and read the ingredients. I was right.
I HATE fake sugar. I hate the taste it leaves in my mouth, I hate the links to cancer that it has (although the studies on fake sugars are “undetermined” I don’t want to take my chances), I just hate it. So, needless to say I poured out that glass and dumped the bottle. I did however check into the ingredients in Emergen-C, another supplement that I had used before as a daily vitamin option and it does not contain any fake sugars! Emergen-C does contain quite a bit of salt so if you are on a low sodium diet be sure to watch your intake on the days that you take Emergen-C. They also have come out with products for kids which is a great way to pump some vitamins into your little one. Here is the link to Emergen-C’s website www.emergenc.com . I think this is a great product and definitely the better, healthier option!
