What: Anteadote Iced Tea from Adiago
Why: Diet Coke is one of my vices. And it can’t be that bad for you, because it doesn’t include any calories right?
A nutritionist friend of mine says it’s actually worse. In her opinion, all the chemicals used to artificially sweeten the soda are more harmful for you than the sugar in a regular Coke. And although I craved my daily Diet Cokes, I couldn’t ignore that I felt this kind of crummy “hangover” after drinking one. (Kind of shaky and headachy.)
In 2008, I’ve resolved to switch to tea.
Adiago Tea has a line of wonderful iced teas,
Anteadote, that are great-tasting and good for you. Unlike many supermarket iced teas, Anteadote teas are unsweetened, made from fresh tea leaves, not concentrate. Filtered water, tea leaves and vitamin C are the only ingredients—no additives or preservatives. Tea boasts a variety of health benefits—from weight loss to fighting heart disease. Ditch the Diet Coke for Anteadote, and I promise you that you won’t miss it and will feel much healthier for it.
Price: $24 for a case of 15 16.9 oz bottles.
