Propel Water in Flavored Water(52)

What does it mean when water has electrolytes added to it?

Water that claims to have added electrolytes is water fortified with minerals like potassium, sodium, and magnesium. The belief is that this type of water hydrates you faster than regular water without electrolytes. Water with electrolytes is similar to a sports drink. However, it has less sugar, and it doesn't usually have as many electrolytes in it.

What is added to some bottled water to make it good for your immune system?

Water that claims to support your immune system is usually fortified with vitamins and minerals that are said to give your immune system a little boost. This usually includes a large amount of vitamin C, as well as electrolytes, like potassium and sodium. Always check the label to see exactly what the water you choose contains.

Does flavored water have sugar in it?

Most flavored water does not have sugar in it. Some may have an alternative sweetener, like stevia, sucralose, or aspartame. Many aren't sweetened at all. They just have a hint of flavor, usually a fruit or berry flavor. Of course, you should always check the nutrition label on any beverage you drink if you're concerned about the amount of sugar it may or may not contain. Some water will also be labeled "zero sugar," similar to other beverages.
