Hi, I was wondering If I could have this homemade kombucha from Green House Juicery that has 6g of sugar, but lists cane sugar as an ingredient. It is in no way sweet. In fact this kombucha is spicy and really helps me when I have an upset stomach. with that being said I know sugar is not allowed, but all kombucha has sugar and GT's Synergy (that doesn't list its sugar) is compliant with 12-14g of sugar. I believe this brand lists it just to be safe, and it is what the probiotic feeds off of. I also believe Canadian label laws are much more strict than the states.

Hi team, I've just started my Whole30 today! And I'm looking to find a compliant coconut milk to put in coffee, there are tins of it at the supermarket but they seem more for just the cooking side..so I was looking at ones that are made for drinking, like almond and soy milks. BUT, I get really thrown by some of the ingredients...are the ones I've copied in below compliant? Ingredients: Filtered water, coconut cream (min. 8%), inulin, mineral (calcium, phosphate), emulsifier (471), vegetable gum (407, 418), natural flavours, sea salt. If not, does anyone know of a good one you can get in NZ? I had already decided to not worry about coffee while I'm doing this, but figured if I can find a good milk I could give it a try. Thanks!! Leah.

I know we are able to drink things like flavoured sparkling water, or make 'mocktails' for special occasions, but what about using something like this product? https://seedlipdrinks-ca.com/products/spice-94 It is a distilled non-alcoholic spirit. All the ingredients are compliant, but I have a feeling this might fall into the SWYPO category. Thoughts?

Hey there, My girlfriend and I are on day 15 and I accidentally had the SMALLEST sip of this Mamma Chia Blackberry Hibiscus drink. I thought I had checked the label, but I must not have looked hard enough because agave is listed in the ingredients. Does this mean I have to start over? That would suck.

I usually use canned coconut milk exclusively, but I found this at my local grocery the other day, and I *think* the ingredients check out. The only thing that has me curious is the cellulose gel, cellulose gum and the "fortified vitamins and minerals". I did some digging and the consensus seems to be that these ingredients pass, but I figured I would put it out here for confirmation (I want to share with a group I'm leading, but definitely don't want to give them misinformation). Looking forward to starting my 5th Whole30 on January 2! Pictures attached, but here is the ingredients list for convenience: Coconut Water Water Coconut Cream Contains less than 2% of stabilizers (cellulose gel and cellulose gum) Fortified Vitamins and Minerals: Tricalcium phosphate Magnesium sulfate Vitamin A Zinc Sulfate

Hi, I've noticed the popularity of La Croix especially with Whole 30 instagrammers however Trader Joe's didn't carry it so I found something else there called Spindrift Seltzer. The drink is advertised as no sugar added and the ingredients are: sparkling water, raspberry puree, raspberry juice, fresh squeezed lime juice, natural flavor, fruit and vegetable juice for coloring. Link to the site: http://www.spindriftfresh.com/seltzer/ I have a couple questions about the ingredients, the lime juice was listed as fresh squeezed but the raspberry juice is just listed as raspberry juice (could this mean that there could be hidden sugar or would they have to list that out as a seperate component) same goes for raspberry puree is it okay to assume that raspberry puree is just mashed up raspberry with no added sugar? Additionally the nutrition label reads 2 grams of sugar, could this be the sugar that is naturally from raspberries? Thank you! Sarah

Would like some guidance on the following: I read in the "Can I have…?" forum a suggestion made about adding some fruit juice to your sparkling water as a way to create a tasty alternative to drinking just plain water all day. However, I'm trying to avoid those blood sugar/ insulin spikes that I understand come with the naturally occurring sugar in fruit. So… Is adding 1-2 ounces of a pure tart cherry or cranberry juice, for example, acceptable as a between-meal beverage?? Thanks! Almost completed 2 weeks….

My boss offered to buy us all coffee or tea this morning...I asked for a iced green tea, no sweetener. We even all wrote down our order for her yesterday to hand the barista to minimize confusion....there is also only 5 of us so nothing too crazy. *sigh* I am so glad I didn't just suck it down like I usually would...guess I had a feeling something would be wrong. I took one sip when the drinks got back to the office and ended up spitting it right back out because it was waaaaaay sweetened. Probably even more so than I would have sweetened it myself in the past...I'm going to have to find a way to dump the thing without my boss noticing...I don't want her to feel bad since it isn't her fault, and there is no way to take it back since our office is in the middle of nowhere and she grabbed them on her way in. Oh well...plain ol regular hot green tea for me today...

Hi, I'm doing my first Whole30 (I'm in the UK) and really confused about drinks. I have a Purdey's multivitamin drink which contains fruit juices from concentrate. Am I right in thinking this makes it non-compliant? Its the same with my coconut water but coconut water from concentrate. Does anyone have any recommendations for complaint cold drinks in the UK other than water with lemon and limes? Thanks

Hello. I have found that the Neuro Sonic energy drink works really well for me as an activator when I am having trouble with energy/focus/stress. http://www.drinkneuro.com/the-drinks/sonic I am about to try the Whole30 once more, but would love any advice on supplements/foods that could help me to replicate the effects of the drink without the added sugar content and dodgier ingredients. From what I can tell, the active ingredients are: Vitamin D (200 IU), Thiamin (0.45ms), Riboflavin (0.6mg), Niacin (5mg), Vitamin B6 (4mg), and Vitamin B12 (6mcg) as well as a proprietary blend of Vaffeine, L-theanine (L-TeaActie), Choline, alphoscerate (Alpha GPC), Phosphatidylsenne, and Resveratrol. I also found that the last time I tried the Whole30 my milk cravings (particularly when on the rag) were out of control. I would love to hear if anyone has found a way to curb milk cravings, or has an idea what makes them so powerful (particularly in lady time). Thanks.

SO...my bf is attempting the Whole30 challenge and he's going nuts bc he can't use the flavored powder/liquid anymore. He hates coffee and the doctor said since he's had kidney stones he should stop drinking tea but if increases your chances of having them, especially if you've had them in the past. What other options are there other than coconut water, tea, coffee, and regular? Anyone?

I bought my first bottle of kombucha last week, and I really liked it! I don't really like strong drinks, so I was pouring out a little bit each night after dinner and then filling my glass the rest of the way with seltzer water. My only question is how to mix the culture evenly throughout the drink - it seemed to be all at the bottom, so I shook it, and learned that kombucha is carbonated, lol. Any suggestions for making sure I don't end up with the whole culture at the bottom by the end of the week?

No-body has mentioned using unsweetened cocoa powder to have a hot cocoa drink. Is that compliant? Would be yum....

I have some Teavana teas and realized that almost all of them have candied fruit in them (no wonder they are so good!) but I have some of the JavaVana Mate and I was wondering if it is compliant. Here are the ingredients: Black tea, roasted mate tea, cocoa bits, flavoring (chocolate, cappuccino), vanilla bits. I think the chocolate would make it no bueno, but wanted to double check! Thanks!

Hi Everyone! I'm currently on Day 3. I've taken away carbonated drinks, and majority all juices due to sugar but I'm having a hard time finding something to drink. I don't like Coffee or Tea so that's kind of hard. Am I stuck with only water??? I've drank Vega Smoothies w/ lots of fruit (bananas,peaches,blackberries, blueberries, strawberries) With 2tbsp of Almond Milk and Coconut Milk mostly in the mornings for post-workout/ accompanying my breakfast for the last couple of days, but reading the forums that mention it must not be a good idea! Taking it off my daily regimen, but I do need an alternative drink!!! HELP!

I purchased and tried the the Strawberry Banana drink from Bolthouse farms. For the majority of the whole30 I've been staying away from fruit juice and smoothies. The ingredients are as follows: Strawberry puree, banana puree, pear juice from concentrate, apple juice from concentrate , apple puree, Pectin, Vitamin C, Natural flavors. I am about done with my first whole30 although I have reset a few times. Is this drink whole30 compliant? Best, Kevin
