Hey all, Is it particularly unhealthy to snack on powdered drink mix? The kind that’s just garbage chemicals and artificial flavors. I drink TONS of water every day because I take a lot of medication so I have always drank a lot of water. I pee like 10x a day and it’s very clear so I know I’m getting plenty. That being divulged, we have this powdered drink mix and I like touching the pouch opening to my tongue and sucking on the powder a little bit at a time. It’s tasty and no calories to speak of. I know it’s junk but it keeps me from snacking on junk food. I just wonder if it’s particularly unhealthy to do.
It’s no more unhealthy than if you were to use it to mix a drink.
That said, check out Soylent and Huel. they make powdered meals that are actually healthy and nutritious. Would be healthier than sugary drink powder.
Ok so just curious when you say it’s no more unhealthy than drinking it, what credentials are you basing that assessment upon? I’m not trying to be dickish, this is all to put my wife’s mind at ease.
You’re consuming the same thing, water or not. The only risk is choking on it.
Yes I’m aware.
If you were aware, you wouldn’t be here.
I’m aware. You did not read everything I said. You’re too full of yourself. Relax. Don’t be presumptuous.
