We usually carry some bottles of water for patients since we don&#8217;t have room for a water cooler in our waiting room (some people will actually look at us with scorn if we offer them tap water, even though Vancouver tap water continually beats bottled water on testing). We figured we&#8217;d hit the jackpot and didn&#8217;t have to shop for a while.<\/p>\n<p>Then I read the label. The amount of sugar is staggering, and even though it makes reference to fruit juice in the name of the product, there is nothing of the sort inside. What ever happened to getting your vitamins in your food? What ever happened to being happy with simple water to drink?<\/p>\n<p>This is just another example of misleading marketing to latch onto the health and wellness craze.
