Rating:     Average

Ingredient Score:

This product earns a rating of 3 out of 5 green leaves. The Vitamin Water Watermelon Peach is a beverage that seeks to provide hydration alongside a blend of vitamins and electrolytes. It is not an organic product, nor does it use non-GMO ingredients, which impacts its score negatively. While the drink does not contain added sugars, it is sweetened with stevia leaf extract and monk fruit extract, which are considered natural sweeteners.

The product consists primarily of reverse osmosis water, which is a purified form of water. It also includes soluble corn fiber, a source of dietary fiber that may support digestive health. Less than 0.5% of the composition is made up of natural flavors and a range of vitamins including C, B3, B5, B6, and B12. These vitamins are essential for various bodily functions and overall wellness. The beverage incorporates citric acid, which can act as a preservative and provide tartness, as well as beta-carotene and beta-apo-8-carotenal, which are used for color and have antioxidant properties.

Electrolytes such as calcium and magnesium lactates and potassium phosphate are present to aid in replenishment during hydration. However, the use of natural flavors and certain vitamin forms, specifically pyridoxine hydrochloride (a form of vitamin B6), has led to a deduction in points due to potential concerns over their origins or manufacturing processes.

The product does provide an option for those seeking a vitamin-infused water with no added sugars, but it falls short in the areas of organic certification and non-GMO verification. The inclusion of both natural and artificial ingredients for flavoring and preservation, alongside sweeteners like stevia, reflects a compromise between offering a cleaner product and catering to consumer taste preferences.

Overall, Vitamin Water Watermelon Peach positions itself as a middle-of-the-road choice for individuals looking for a vitamin-enhanced hydration option that steers clear of traditional sugars, while still having room for improvement in terms of organic and non-GMO standards.
