The average person should drink about 64 ounces of water each day. For those more active, a minimum should be half of your body weight (150 pound person = 75 ounces of water).<a title=\"mio water\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/03\/mio-water-enhancer-will-cure-your-distaste-for-water\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-45394\" title=\"mio water\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/mio-water.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"104\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>How much have you drank today?<\/p>\n<p>Probably not enough. The biggest reason most people don&#8217;t drink water is flavor. We Americans love flavor, and water just isn&#8217;t doing it for us. But MiO can help. This new water flavor enhancer from Kraft is exactly what you&#8217;ve been missing, and could very well be the thing to help you transition away from all that other junk you&#8217;re drinking.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>MiO comes in these cute little containers (not that that does anything for the flavor), and inside is a concentrated liquid that you can add to your water to give it a delicious burst of flavor. Six options are available: Strawberry Watermelon, Fruit Punch, Mango Peach, Berry Pomegranate, Peach Tea, and Sweet Tea. One squeeze, or half a teaspoon, will give your glass or bottle of water a tasty makeover that, most importantly, will make you want to drink it.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"mio water\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/03\/mio-water-enhancer-will-cure-your-distaste-for-water\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-45395\" title=\"mio water\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/mio_water.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a>My favorite was the Fruit Punch, you could almost taste the nostalgia as it reminded me of my favorite sugary drink mix as a kid. This time, no red-stained mustache!<\/p>\n<p>The best news? They taste great! A little drop in your water yields a really delicious drink. If you&#8217;re missing that fizzy burn from your soda, then add MiO to an ice-cold glass of sparkling water or club soda.<\/p>\n<p>The entire <strong><a title=\"how to read a food label\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/07\/reading-a-food-label-101\/\">nutrition label<\/a> <\/strong>on MiO is filled with zeroes: zero calories, zero fat, zero sugar, and so forth. We also love that each is made using natural flavors.<\/p>\n<p>MiO does contain <strong><a title=\"artificial sweeteners\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/07\/sweet-debate-sugar-vs-artificial-sweetener\/\">artificial sweeteners<\/a><\/strong>: sucralose (i.e Splenda) and acesulfame potassium. However, there&#8217;s barely any in there, as the two ingredients are noted after the &#8220;Contains Less Than 2%&#8221; mark on the ingredients label. These two sweeteners are used together to counter the other&#8217;s aftertaste.<\/p>\n<p>All in all, MiO should be just the thing to help turn all of you water haters into water lovers.<\/p>\n<p>Major grocery retailers are carrying MiO, but if you can&#8217;t find it, their marketing team is very responsive on the<strong> <a title=\"mio flavored water\" href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/MiO\">MiO Facebook<\/a><\/strong> page.<\/p>\n<p><em>While MiO provided sample product, this review is not sponsored or influenced in anyway and remains the author\u2019s own opinion.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;re one of the many who solely drinks soda, juice, and coffee, then the constant preaching to drink more water likely falls on deaf ears.
