Comments on: Propel Water – A Good Substitute?

Propel Zero has a horrible after taste, and the increase in chemical sweeteners has caused some reactions to some of the drinkers. There’s actually a lot of complaints about the direction they went in. There’s a Facebook page set up too: “Propel Zero Sucks”. They sometimes post where you can still find the regular non-toxic variety of Propel. Propel’s facebook page has begun censoring the complaints, so don’t look for much help there. It’s mainly a propaganda page now.

Have you tried the packets of propel powder that you add to your water. They are all I use so I can use my own water bottle, and it tastes great and it is the regular propel, not the zero one. In grocery stores in the juice aisle. Hope you like it..

I am a diabetic and I have finally (with the help of propel) been able to drink “water” rather than diet soda. The problem that I now face is that propel has become propel zero. Why did they have to go and ruin a good thing. Every now and then I strike gold and find regular proper. Yeah! I try to drink regular water but when I drink too much I feel sick to my stomach. Adding lemon to plain water is a plus, but every now and then you just want more . Sadly propel zero is not an option for me because it has the same sweetener as diet drinks. Will propel zero be taking over the propel market leaving normal propel not to be made anymore? By the way, my A1c scores have gone done while i’ve been drinking 4 to 5 propels a day!! The flavor is like candy for me and satisfies my sweet tooth. What to do now?

I am one of those people who really don’t like water. I guess I just don’t like the “taste” of a tasteless drink. I get headaches a lot so I have been trying to drink much more because it might be a cure, but it is just hard to get down! The only time I drink a lot of water is during a hard work out. The other day I decided to by some propel and it is much easier to drink a bottle of than water, in my opinion. I like the subtle taste. Glad to hear that it can be a decent substitute for water, though I will still try to drink more.

Easy there Kevin, so do you not like propel? We won’t make you drink it. Are you a fan of red bull maybe? If so, please don’t have anymore. Maybe you won’t become so irate about other peoples beverages if you aren’t awake at 3 am staring at a computer. Just a thought.
I like propel. I wish they sold family sizes so as not to use so much plastic though. By the way, my doctor has informed me that drinking very large amounts of water , like you would for a virus or marathon can make you sick by depleting certain vitamins and minerals and suggested propel as an alternative.

Kevin nice point. That made no sense. You just type fragmented sentences in all caps. Good job! I am drinking my first Propel as I type and I will say the taste is just ok. Before today, I typically had a hot chocolate in the morning and 3 to 4 carbonated sodas a day. Go me. My body probably hates me. I’m going to attempt to drink only propel and water from now on. And yes, I understand the water gets boring thing. It has no taste and therefore pisses us off because we are all spoiled by things like coke and pepsi that have wonderful taste. If those products didn’t exist I’d be much happier and less of a fat-ass worthless blob.

IN MY OPINION SOME PEOPLE CANNOT DRINK ANY PLAIN WATER AT ALL???? I MEAN WATER WITH NOTHING AT ALL ADDED…. PLAIN WATER

Usually I’m leery when it comes to bottled water because basically bottled water is tap water with a bunch of unnecessary chemicals added to it. Propel however, has got my attention. It’s light, crisp, and refreshing. My favorite flavor hands down is peach- mango but I also like berry and occasionally kiwi- strawberry when I want something sweeter. Not only is it a low calorie drink but it has vitamins that are essential to everyday functioning. The only downside to propel is it contains sucralose which causes me to limit my intake, but it’s a nice drink to have when plain ol’ water gets boring

propel taste good, and water doesn’t. it’s just that simple.
