Flavored Seltzer

[Garyrajsich]

I've been drinking nothing but Flavored Seltzer since starting induction last week. The Nutrition Facts say 0g of Carbs. The ingredients say: Carbonated Water And Natural Flavor.

I'm concerned about the "Natural Flavor". Just like I'm concerned when I see "Natural Spices", or just plain "Spices". There's no telling what may be lurking in there.

The label also says "Less than 1% Juice".

Any thoughts?

Thanks.

Re: Flavored Seltzer

Juice is not allowed on induction
The label is not telling the truth - if it has juice it has carbs. They are probably rounding down. If there is less that 0.5 carb per serving the label can state 0 carbs (and if there is less thatn 5 calories the label can state 0 calories)

It was only Raspberry that had that notation - all the other flavors say "proudct contains no juice", so I stopped drinking the Raspberry.

How much damage do you think the Raspberry Seltzer could have caused?

There is no way of knowing
If you find out that something has unexpectedly contained an 'illegal' ingredient for your phase of Atkins all you can do is change what you choose to drink/eat from now on, and make the very next bite/slurp 'legal'
