    Crystal Light Question

    This week I started mixing up Crystal Light to help with my water intake. I currently drink 1 gallon straight water and 1 gallon crystal light. However, I noticed on the ingredients of the raspberry ice flavor that the #1 ingredient is maltodextrin (from corn). This got me concerned because earlier in the week I asked about corn and was told it contained too much simple sugar. Also isn't maltodexrin a sugar? The label reads zero fat and zero carbs. Any feedback would be appreciated.

    Also, the lemon flavor does not contain maltodextrin. I hope it's a good substitute because I need a break from Diet Pepsi for a while.

    Thanks everyone

    It must have such a trace amount that they don't even have to put it on the nutrition label, I wouldn't worry, I drink that stuff like its my job.
