Guest guest Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 I cant remember what it was but I made a mental note NOT to touch it, either due to artificial sweetener or additives. So it's DEFO off our list. I was surprised that Volvic would damage an otherwise healthy brand name with junk added ingredients. :-(( stephaniesirr schrieb: > > I don't know what's in Volvic touch of fruit, but sounds like you > could replicate it with filtered water and a splash of organic juice. > > Clean up the diet is first and foremost and really cutting sugar is > like cutting alcohol for a child.

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 Cant remember hmm might have been aspartame. I am not so focussed on Sodium Benzoate. Or it may have been the flavouring, a bad 'E' number. Sorry cant be more helpful. Ill have a look at a bottle next time I am shopping. mcollins2001uk schrieb: > > Was it sodium benzoate? > Margaret > > > > > > > > Hi, > > > > > > > > I am very new to this.

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 The list is sugar, natural flavourings and flavouring, potassium benzoate. They apparently don't have to detail the flavourings.
