How Many Hidden Calories Are Lurking in Your Daily Drinks?

Quick question: how many calories did you drink today? If you had a latte this morning, a soda at lunch, and a sweetened iced tea in the afternoon, you may have consumed 500 or more liquid calories -- without eating a single bite of food.

The Beverages Quietly Undermining Your Goals

Most people are careful about what they eat but completely overlook what they drink. And it's costing them. Liquid calories are some of the sneakiest sources of sugar and empty calories in the modern diet.

Consider what's really in your favorite drinks:

• A medium flavored latte: 250-400 calories and up to 45g of sugar
• A can of soda: 140 calories and 39g of sugar
• A bottled sweetened tea: 180 calories and 42g of sugar
• A fruit smoothie from a chain: 300-500 calories loaded with added sugars
• Even "healthy" juice can pack 200+ calories per serving

Why It's So Hard to Break the Habit

You reach for these drinks because they taste good, they give you a pick-me-up, and frankly, water can get boring. You know you should drink less sugar, but the alternatives either taste flat or leave you missing that gentle energy boost your afternoon tea or coffee provided.

The real challenge is finding something that satisfies your taste buds, gives you a gentle lift, and doesn't come loaded with calories and sugar.

What If Your Favorite Daily Drink Had Only 5 Calories?

Imagine a delicious, refreshing drink that gives you a gentle energy boost, delivers antioxidants, and contains just 5 calories per serving. Hot or cold, morning or afternoon -- a beverage you actually look forward to that supports your wellness goals instead of undermining them.

Millions of people have already made the switch. And they'll tell you it's one of the easiest healthy changes they've ever made.
