Rating: We Avoid
- 1 out of 5
Ingredient Score:
Rated at 1/5 green leaves, the Mio Sport Liquid Water Enhancer, Berry Blast, is a product that our assessment finds to fall short in terms of offering a clean food option. This water enhancer is not organic and does not use non-GMO ingredients, which are significant factors in our evaluation process.
The ingredient list reveals the presence of added sugars and artificial sweeteners, including citric acid, acesulfame potassium, sucralose, and sucrose acetate isobutyrate. These components contribute to the product’s low score, as they are considered harmful when consumed in excess and are not in line with cleaner food alternatives.
Moreover, the product contains additives that raise concerns. Ingredients such as natural flavor and potassium sorbate, along with malic acid, have led to deductions in our scoring system due to their potential harm. The inclusion of Blue 1, a synthetic dye, is particularly troubling as it is a known harmful additive, further reducing the product’s score.
The Mio Sport Liquid Water Enhancer also contains a mix of salts and vitamins, including salt, potassium phosphate, niacinamide (Vitamin B3), Vitamin B6, and Vitamin B12. While vitamins and electrolytes can be beneficial, the negative impact of the aforementioned additives and sweeteners overshadows these potential benefits.
The product’s overall score reflects a substantial need for improvement in its formulation to meet the standards of cleaner, healthier food options. Consumers seeking products that align with a health-conscious lifestyle may find that this water enhancer does not meet their criteria. Therefore, based on our scoring criteria, we advise against choosing this product for those looking for clean and healthy hydration alternatives.
