I like water. Every now and then, I may grab a bottle of flavored water or squeeze a lemon or an orange into my glass of water. My kids LOVE water, and for that, I am truly thankful! I was chosen to participate in a MomSelect campaign and I was sent a few bottles of Fruit2O Essentials in assorted flavors to try out. Because it's not really my thing, I depended heavily on Logan for this review. I tried each flavor and they were really fruity! I liked that a lot! But what I personally did not like was the sweetness. Even though I'm from the south (we are famous for our sugary tea that resembles syrup!) I prefer barely sweetened tea, and most of the time, I like plain unsweetened herbal teas. Fruit2O isn't overly sweet, it was just too sweet for me. My kids, well, they couldn't get enough! My kids both reached for these first. They were on a shelf with juice and sodas and this was their first choice, as long as they lasted. Usually, Sam wants milk and Logan wants ice water or juice, and maybe once a week he will grab a Sprite. It's great knowing that each bottle of Fruit2O Essentials provides the nutrients found in two servings of fruit, including important vitamins and minerals and one gram of fiber! Each flavor combines a popular fruit with a super fruit delivering uniquely beneficial nutrients. Unlike many other fortified waters, Fruit2O Essentials has a subtle fruit flavor, no sugar or calories, and only one gram of carbohydrates. I am really happy that my kids love it so much. It makes it easier for them to make healthier choices!
I'm giving one reader a month supply of Fruit2O Essentials! US readers only. Giveaway ends May 7, 2010 at midnight, EST! To enter, answer this question- What small changes are you making to live a healthier life? Please leave your answer in a comment!

I am trying to do at least 20 minutes of cardio daily, I so happen to consume an entire 20 oz bottle of water while doing that 20 minutes so I am also consuming more water than I normally would. Thanks for the opportunity.

I have started buying fresh vegetables instead of canned or frozen because they are better for me and they use a lot less energy to get them from the field to the store so I feel like I am being more green.

I have recently made big changes in my family! I have a 4 yr old, and a 10 year old that struggle with their weight. I have cut out ALL junk foods, and no longer cook, any processed, pre packaged foods. We are cooking, and eating healthy! My 10 year old HATES regular water, so this would be a huge help, in getting her to drink more water.

I'm going to cycle to work instead of driving (I'm a student who can't figure out how to interview so I only work during the summer).
Also, I'm going to try the hipster diet of eating only organic foods or vegetarianism, whichever one doesn't kill me I guess.
I stopped drinking sodas.

I'm walking! Getting out everyday and walking for as long as I can.
This giveaway is perfect for us, we recently started drinking Fruit2O water as I rarely ever drink soda and my husband drinks too, too much soda and rarely a sip of water. We love Fruit2O! I never like lemon and I even love thre lemon, it's like a very light lemonade. Perfect, we'd be so grateful.
