Subject:  Re: [vocalist] Water


What do I do? I drink water mixed with an particular brand of instant
tea sweetened with saccharin (sodium saccharin, recently taken off the
"cancer-causing" hit list by the FDA). I can't handle large amounts of
nutrasweet, but I've experienced no noticable negative side effects from
saccharin.

This stuff is relatively low in caffiene, high in flavor (list of
ingredients boasts "citric acid" as well as "natural lemon flavor), and
it tastes wonderful to me. Lots of other folks would absolutely hate
it, I'm sure. I've been drinking it for over 15 years, at least two
quarts per day, usually three to four. I'm absolutely convinced it has
saved my voice (I'm another allergy sufferer), not to mention helping
maintain excellent skin tone and all the other "good things" that come
from drinking lots of "water" each day.

I realize my artifically-sweetened chemically processed instant tea may
kill me someday, but at least I won't die from dehydration! :-)

Cheers!

Lana
