Dieticians and Nutritionists recently had their annual summit and expo in Denver in October. Over 800 of these professionals were sampled with natural flavor concentrates that have just a hint of stevia and 0 carbs. Their reactions were overwhelming. They not only thought they delivered on taste, but they also were excited that they had no carbs.
The Dieticians and Nutritionists that were surveyed at the expo specialized in the areas of weight loss and diabetics. This group of practitioners understood the storyline that we’re drinking more calories than ever. About 450 calories a day, that’s a whopping 29 pounds annually consumers have to work off. Collectively, they saw the value in a 0 carb, 0 calorie flavor concentrate used to enhance the flavor of water while promoting proper hydration.
Dieticians and Nutritionists struggle in the treatment of weight loss and diabetics when it comes to drinks. Their patients can’t drink high caloric drinks so they have very limited choices for beverages and soft drinks. Natural flavor drops and concentrates with 0 carbs were an appreciated recommendation for these professionals.
Here’s the dilemma with a lot of soft drink beverages. Juices, sodas and pops contain high fructose corn syrups, which are nothing more than sweetened water. Some of these beverages also use artificial sweeteners that stimulate insulin, so they are not recommended for diabetic patients.
Here’s a huge benefit to using natural flavor concentrates. They promote hydration. When water tastes better, people are more likely to drink more water. The better H2O tastes, the more they will drink, it’s as simple as that.
For the first time, Dieticians and Nutritionists have a go to recommendation that serves as low cost choice and no carb product to recommend to their patients and clients.
