I recently got to try a refreshing vitamin supplement drink called Oxylent. It’s a convenient and enjoyable way to get in your vitamins and minerals for a healthier lifestyle. This could actually fit with my get fit event, but it’s going with my summer event because it’s so refreshing.

Did you know that according to some studies, the body absorbs only 20% of vitamins and minerals in pill form? I had no idea. However, Oxylent is formulated in a dry packet. So, when you combine it with water and drink right after that (remember from another post of mine where I told you that water will break down the vitamins if left to combine too long?) you are more likely to get more benefit from it. The ingredients are supposed to be easily absorbed by the body, so you get the maximum benefit from them.

There is also a type of Oxylent for everyone! They have the general mix, as well as children’s and prenatal! I didn’t try the prenatal. However, I tried the regular and children’s. I must admit, I really liked the sample of the children’s Bubbly Berry Punch I tried. It’s really bubbly and fun! Plus, it tastes pretty good. I think it tasted similar to Kool-Aid, to be honest. If I hadn’t known what it was, I wouldn’t know that it was really good for me! Haha! The regular type is pretty good, too. Just be sure you don’t add too much to water to the mix or you will lose the flavoring and it won’t taste as strong. You are supposed to add only 4 to 8 ounces of water to each packet. So, it’s easy to add too much. I recommend measuring water for optimal flavor.

I think Oxylent is a nice way to get in some necessary vitamins/minerals in your diet without having to give up anything! It would make for a wonderful, refreshing, cool treat on a hot summer day for sure! It perks you up a bit, which would be great for a vacation!
