deluxe honeydrop: Certified-organic honey-infused water is gentle and delicious and available in four flavors—Bee Good (apple), Bee Alive (blood orange), Bee Calm (chamomile) and Bee Strong (blueberry). It’s the brainchild of David Luks, who created it after surviving cancer and studied the health advantages of an organic lifestyle. He turned to honey (which they source in the Brazil's Amazon Rainforest) for its many benefits—it’s a natural antioxidant and homeopathic remedy for coughs and sore throats, it offers instant energy from glucose and a slower lasting energy from fructose. deluxe honeydrop is sweetened with a drop of honey and a drop of premium juices and teas, and it’s only 80 calories per BPA-free recyclable bottle. |

Joint Juice Fitness: Orthopedic surgeon Dr. Kevin Stone created Joint Juice (San Francisco, Calif.) in 1999 as an easy-to-digest alternative to swallowing cumbersome glucosamine pills. It contains vegetable-based glucosamine and only has 25 calories per can. The new Joint Juice Fitness is an enhanced water with the same glucosamine benefits as the juice, as well as B vitamins and electrolytes for joint hydration. It comes in natural Lemon, Berry and Kiwi-Strawberry, and has only 10 calories per bottle. Drinking a Joint Juice® supplement daily gives your body 1,500 mg of glucosamine, the amount that researchers indicate can help provide joint cartilage with what it needs to stay healthy, and improve joint function and mobility. |

Code Blue: Some call it a “recovery” drink...I say “hangover remedy in a bottle.” After a fun night out, Code Blue is scientifically designed to help you feel better faster by hydrating, replenishing and detoxifying your body. It’s ingredients include Sustamine™, an amino acid which promotes muscle hydration and electrolyte replacement, and D-Ribose to help maintain healthy energy levels in the heart and muscles. It also contains an optimal amount of electrolytes, agave and prickly pear (a natural anti-inflammatory that boosts the immune system) and a blend of vitamins and minerals. Code Blue has only 60 calories, contains no caffeine and is low in sugar and carbohydrates. |
