Here are the ingredients, I found on the web (hopefully it's correct). A lot of sugar, some electrolytes, preservatives, a few antioxidant vitamins, and a little bit of antioxidant extracts of some sort. Ghost is probably right that the antioxidant load is reduced in the processing. Beyond that, there's no evidence consuming vitamins in water like this leads to better health. Marketing gimmick for the gullible.



Ingredients: Purified water, sugar, potassium citrate (electrolyte), citric acid, natural flavors, fruit and vegetable juices (for color), modified corn starch, calcium lactate (electrolyte), calcium gluconate (electrolyte), magnesium lactate (electrolyte), vitamin E acetate, calcium disodium edta (to maintain freshness), grape seed extract, zinc gluconate (electrolyte), vitamin A palmitate, EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate), manganese gluconate (electrolyte).
