Better beverage choices can help fight and prevent obesity and diabetes. There are many options for what to drink, but without a doubt, water is the best choice: It’s calorie-free, caffeine free and it’s as easy to find as the nearest tap. Drinks that are loaded with sugar are the worst choice because they are loaded with lots of calories but provide virtually no other nutritional value. Many people turn to drinks with artificial sweeteners because of the lower calorie count but these “sweeteners” may actually cause you to eat more. Are you ready to make healthe drinking your priority? Click here to get more details on HealthéDrinks and our list of drinks to avoid.

What is the all the fuss about ARTICIFICAL SWEETENERS?
When trying to reduce overall caloric intake, artificial sweeteners are often used as a replacement for sugar. However, these chemical sweeteners should be used sparingly because they are not metabolized the same by the body, and may have unexpected effects on your health. Artificial sweeteners may also actually cause you to eat more and be hungrier. This will cancel out the effects of the HealthéTrim and you will not see the Maximum Results. A little raw sugar is a better choice because it is metabolized properly.
Types of Artificial Sweeteners:
- Sucralose (splenda)
- Aspartame (nutrasweet)
- Saccharin
- Agave Nectar
- Stevia
Alcohol
Alcohol depletes vitamins and minerals in the body, wreaking havoc on our digestive, cardiovascular and immune systems. It adds calories to your daily intake and is metabolized as a fat in the liver. Also, alcohol is a diuretic (it dehydrates), which will ultimately affect your results with HealthéTrim.
If you do consume alcohol, red wine and clear liquor, like vodka, have lower sugar content. Try to avoid beer, white wine, and dark liquors, as they are higher in sugar and will not help in weight loss.
How about fresh lemonade…made myself with real lemons and real sugar?
Real lemonade is perfect! Be sure and drink 64-80oz of water in addition to that.
can i eat protin bars?????
Yes, you can have protein bars so long as they are not sweetened with artificial sweetener.
Please note – Vitamin Water – Naturally Sweetened, this contains Stevia. Its a no go for those wondering about this brand specifically.
We suggest while on Healthe Trim that for maximum results you eliminate all caffeine, decaf and artificial
sweetener, which would include Stevia. Although from a plant derivative the chemical process it is put
through to convert it to a sweetener makes it artificial.
So from what I have read from other posts drinking red wine is fine?
A little glass of red wine now and then is perfectly fine.
Can honey be used in place of raw sugar or is raw sugar the better choice?
Are herbal teas, such as chamomile, alright to consume while taking Healthe Trim?
No, these contain caffeine which is already present in Healthe Trim. This will work against and negate the effects of the product.
I really love coffee. I drink it without sugar but with a little cream. Can I still have any at all on a daily basis? Possibly how much? Thanks
There is approximately 175mg of natural caffeine from the Green Tea leaf extract in 1 capsule, equivalent to a standard cup of coffee. For best results, try to avoid caffeine but definitely decaf if you must!
While taking healthe trim can you drink herbal life meal replacement shakes?
I am not too familiar with the Herbal Life Meal replacement shakes. As long as is doesn’t contain a lot of artificial sweeteners or caffeine it should be ok. You want to make sure you are getting the right amount of nutrients in the day. Taking Healthe Trim will help you achieve your weight loss goals and you will feel less hungry throughout the day!
Can I still have coffee if I drink it black?
There is approximately 175mg of natural caffeine from the Green Tea leaf extract in 1 capsule, equivalent to a standard cup of coffee. For best results, try to avoid caffeine but definitely decaf if you must!
Is high fructose corn syrup okay to consume? I know it’s a processed sugar, not necessarily artificial, so I’m just not sure. It’s in basically everything…
Hi Kelly, I would limit your intake of high fructose corn syrup. As long as it is in moderation it is ok. Thanks
What about Mio, those liquid flavor substitutes?
Marie, I would use the Mio in moderation because some of their flavors contain caffeine. They also contain artificial sweeteners so you want to be cautious of that as well. Thanks
Is it okay to continue to take N.O. Xplode or something similar with Healthe Trim?
Gary, I am not familiar with that product. Does it have additional caffeine?
Is it ok to consume the specific brand emergen-c?
Kari, yes that should be fine. Thanks
Can I drink regular sprite?
Jessica, Sprite contains a lot of sugar so I would drink in moderation for best results. Thanks!
Can I take healthe trim and vitamins by same time?
Kathy, yes you can take Healthe Trim with vitamins. Thanks!
Will it hurt me to have some beer while taking Healthe Trim? I know it won’t help me lose weight, but I really feel like having a beer or two. I just want to make sure that it won’t have any negative side effects if I drink it.
Kristen, there will not be any side effects from drinking beer other than slowing down weight loss process. Just make sure to drink on moderation. Thanks!
I know V8 splash has sucralose but it says less than 2%. Is that still a no-no?
Hi Stephanie, V8 splash is fine just try and drink in moderation. Thanks!
Thanks! I was also wondering if tea is not recommended because of the additional caffeine or are there other issues with it?
