Crystal Lite Question

[GayChristopher1972]

I recently bought some of the O carb, 5 calorie Crystal lite drinks. They have peach tea, lemonade, pink lemonade, etc. Has anyone tried these? Is there a problem drinking these?

Some people have a problem with the maltodextrin in these drinks. I know that when I drink crystal light it really knocks my blood sugar out of whack so I just avoid them. I also think they have aspartame in them which is also a no-no. ymmv.

I drink these, about two packets a day, for a gallon of water. They are the only way I can get my water in, sometimes it has to come out of the faucet nad that is just nasty here. I dont notice an issue with them, but each person is different. Wylers and AZ Tea also have them, but the Walmart brand is cheaper than all of them, and tastes the same. ASo, up to you to check it out and see how it goes for you.

Well the premixed Crystal lite is fine. The powdered is made w/ aspartame and should be avoided. Just remember your serving alotment for the day and don't go over it, the bottles I believe contain at least 2 servings so check the label.
