6. Vitamin water
Yes, vitamin water also makes the list of the worst beverages for your health. While it seems healthy, it can be high in calories and sugar. In fact, vitamin water can contain as much sugar as Coca-Cola.
According to nutritionists, most of the nutrients added to vitamin water differ from those in which most of us have a deficiency. It’s just another sugary beverage that can pack on pounds, so experts recommend getting nutrients from natural food sources such as vegetables and fruits instead.
In the US, vitamin water is sweetened with cane sugar and crystalline fructose, the latter being worse for your health as it’s almost pure fructose. Many studies suggest that fructose is the main harmful component of added sugar.
