San Francisco, CA (January 2009) - HINT Essence Water has announced that it will re-launch HINT Kids at the 2009 Fancy Food Show taking place from January 18-20th. HINT Kids will offer HINT's younger fans an easy grab - and - go drink pack, available in three of HINT's delicious signature flavors; strawberry-kiwi, tropical and watermelon. This new kid-friendly packaged drink is the only responsible flavored beverage containing fluoride, unlike other compromised beverages on the market with hidden calories, sugar or sweeteners.

"We are thrilled to re-launch HINT Kids with fluoride to give younger consumers a healthy beverage that tastes great without sugar, sweeteners or calories." says founder and CEO of HINT Inc. Kara Goldin." After seeing countless products focusing on healthy perception instead of healthy reality, we felt obligated to deliver a no-compromises product that addresses the needs of children and their parents. The acceptance of HINT by kids, demonstrates that great taste does not have to go hand in hand with sweetness."

The 2009 Winter Fancy Food Show is hosted by The National Association for the Specialty Food Trade. It will be taking place at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, CA, and is the premier marketplace for specialty food where retailers, restaurateurs, distributors and others discover innovative, new food and beverage products.

Selected as best flavored water by Health magazine, HINT Essence Water is light, refreshing and never sweet. As a flood of energy drinks and functional beverages blanket the market with reinvented sodas and fruit punches, HINT arrives with a simple solution - water that just tastes better, not sweeter. Natural essences infused into pure water deliver on the promise of HINT's outstanding packaging - refreshing great taste without all the junk.

Fluoride is not healthy for everyone. Too much ingested fluoride discolors teeth while they are forming under the gums. Parents need to know that this product adds to their child's total daily intake of fluoride. Fluoride is also in many foods and beverages but not on the label See: http://www.nal.usda.gov/fnic/foodcomp/Data/Fluoride/Fluoride.html

If it wasnt for fizzy drinks full of sugar there would be no need to add this poisonous crap. Simplest way is to make sure you use real and natural flavours without sugar. Using aspartame and other unsafe sweeteners is even worse, We should not play fast and loose with the health of chilren and before you say it, not only is fluoride unsafe but it doesnt even protect teeth, in fact it damages them. . Dont take my word for it though, cheque out the fluoride action network web site for all the facts.

Strange to brag on added fluoride when 19 EPA unions want a moratorium on fluoridation. No current research can document any meaningful ingested benefit. Even the CDc admitted in 1999 the primary benefit is topical.Featherstone in 2000 also reported the same findings as another 20 other researchers in thge last two decades. Policy does not reflect the science.
