Los Angeles, CA- Summer brings a hot weather dilemma for mothers: children are outside and exercising more, but what are the choices for healthy hydration?
AquaBall Naturally Flavored Water, a division of True Drinks, Inc., is rushing to put a better choice in the hands of mothers and children across the country. AquaBall has No Artificial colors or flavors and is Vitamin Enhanced with B3, B5, B12 & C and sweetened with Stevia, an all-natural sweetener, which means it contains Zero Calories.
“From the White House, to my house,” says Lance Leonard, CEO of True Drinks. “We all know that there is a crisis in child nutrition in this country and the solution starts with the most basic need: water. We see summer as a critical time to make a start, to make a change and we want to put a bottle of AquaBall in the hands of thirsty children across America.”
True Drinks is launching a program in three cities: Los Angeles, Charlotte and San Antonio that ties the company and community groups together in an effort to supply AquaBall to children’s activity centers.
“What our children need is a healthy alternative,” says Mike Levinson, RD. “Obesity is a massive problem in the United States, and it begins with our children and young adults. A large part of that problem begins with what they drink, sodas and juices loaded with sugar and high fructose corn syrup. Changing that habit, could change a lot of lives.”
With the beginning of summer AquaBall’s distinctive bottles adorned with America’s favorite superheros, princesses and comic characters will be given to thousands of children in a range of recreational and sports programs.
“This is a beginning,” says Leonard. “We’re a company, yes, but we’re parents too. Aquaball is distributed in 21,000 locations across the country. We want to make sure parents have a choice.. and hopefully choose to take a healthier drink home.”
