Bob Chick I have a question for you please

[Stark]

Alright...

I have about 3 weeks time to get my diet in place, I have a lot of data (computer logs and such) to get my diet right on point for myself.
Now...
One thing I know (and have documented for myself) is how reluctant I am to drink enough fluids, I have serious issues drinking water.
But since I know how important it is to drink in order to loose fat I was looking around for things that could help me.

So I found:

Robinsons apple and blackcurrant (no added sugar),it is basically a syrup and these are the nutrition information:

Per 100ml
Energy: 39kj/9cal
Protein: 0.2g
Carbs: 1.3g (of which sugar: 1.3g)
Fat: Trace (no saturated)
Fibre: Nil
Sodium: 0.1g

Please note that Robinsons Apple & Blackcurrant contains a source of Phenylalanine - one of the main ingredients in artificial sweetener. Although Phenylalanine is actually an important part of our diet (assists protein) there are people who cannot metabolise phenylalanine and as such the warnings are included on all products containing phenylalanine.

Now I love to mix this with about 2 liter of water.

I would like to ask you if you personally think if this is a bad idea to introduce this in a cutting cycle?

Thanks for you answer

Why don't you just use Crystal lite?

[Stark]

Why don't you just use Crystal lite?

Because I life in Ireland and I have never seen Crystal light here...

I mean there is litteraly nothing in that drink that could be bad lol, and that's excactly my problem I don't trust them since it also tasts great

[Stark]

Any chance u could answer me if this could possible spike my insuline?

[Chick]

No, It doesn't have enough to spike insulin...besides that, your water ratio should be pretty high.

That's cus Ireland sucks.

Why don`t you just drink whatever you want?

[Stark]

besides that, your water ratio should be pretty high.

What do you mean by that?

Thanks for answering btw.

[The True Adonis]

No, It doesn't have enough to spike insulin...besides that, your water ratio should be pretty high.

You don`t even know how much an Insulin spike you would get.  Besides, an Insulin spike is pointless in a calorie defecit.

[realkarateblackbelt]

 These guys don't have a clue.

in Ireland, Crystal light =  any beer that isn't Guiness, Stark.

Hope this help

TA of course insulin spike is an issue

[Chick]

Basically, the amount of water you're bringing in (2 gal/ day), will dilute the flavoring enough so that it's not a factor...

How would Water Dilute an Insulin Response?  Try giving that advice to a Diabetic and watch him die.

[body88]

Just drink water 

[Stark]

Just drink water 

Dude I seriously hate to drink water, I know I will have to to If this isnt working (and that as such is no big deal) but damn I would love if I can use the Robinson stuff... tastes greeeeeat

[MikeThaMachine]

get some lemons and some equal

That's the only thing I drink whenever I go out to eat at any restaurants, my friends think I am weird for just drinking that but now I usually have a light beer on the side since I am 21.

How would Water Dilute an Insulin Response?  Try giving that advice to a Diabetic and watch him die.

   Because he would be spreading the sugar out over the whole day.Nobody is going to be drinking two gallons all at once. If he drinks an 8 oz glass of water mixed with a small amount of the other stuff,the ratio of water to juice(whatever that shit is) would be high enough that there would not be a significant amount of sugar ingested at one time. When they test you for diabetes they make you drink  some shit that is full of dextrose(75 g I think) to induce an insuline spike,if he has diluted that shit way down,as Chick suggested,there won't be enough to cause problems. Just about my whole family,besides me,is diabetic.They won't die if they take in some sugar now and then.They just need to watch it closely.Most diabetics know their body well enough that they can tell when their sugar is getting high or low.

Thanks for summing it up nicely for me, GTBRO...

I seriously thought Adonis was smarter than that...
