While I make sure my kids eat healthy and take vitamins, when it comes to my own health, I admit I?m a slacker. I do my best to eat healthy when I can, but I have a problem sometime choking down great big chalky vitamins or thick, yucky vitamin powders. As a result, I usually end up not taking them, and those vitamins just end up sitting in a cabinet collecting dust.
?
Now that my big 4-0 birthday is just around the corner, I know I need to take better care of myself, so I?ve been looking for new ways to make sure I get the extra nutrition that I might be missing in my daily diet and not able swallow taking as a pill. So it was great timing I was recently offered the opportunity to review Activate ? a new zero calorie beverage that offers vitamins and great taste.
?
?
Using research that proved many vitamins lose their potency when they sit in water on store shelves, Activate has a cool custom cap that allows you to add a fresh dose of vitamins to refreshing flavored waters with just a twist of the cap. With 0 grams of sugar, 0 calories, no preservatives, and naturally sweetened with Stevia, Activate is an easy and quick way to get extra nutrients daily, without blowing your diet.
?
Activate filters the impurities out of regular water with a deionization filtering process, adds in great flavor, and then safely stores vitamins in the cap that you add when you?re ready to drink with just a twist. They?ve got a great variety of flavors including Exotic Berry Activate and Blueberry Pomegranate Activate.
?
In addition to being a different and tasty drink on the go, Activate also makes a great low calorie cocktail mixer. This time of year as everyone is having Halloween and holiday gatherings, I don?t always indulge in holiday cheer with everyone else because the cocktails being served are high calorie. It can be tough on a diet to find fun low calorie cocktails, but Activate has some tasty mixtures you?ll want to try out.
