Health and Prevention Get the Hint: Drink Water, Not Sugar

SAN FRANCISCO (July 2007) – HINT all natural essence water is pleased to announce that it has been honored by both Health and Prevention magazines as the leader in the beverage industry as a healthy option amidst the hundreds of others on the market today. Health Magazine, one of the nation’s leading health and lifestyle publications touted Hint as “best flavored water” and noteworthy publication Prevention cited the brand as one of the “best new foods for you.”

Hint Inc. — whose mantra is Drink Water, Not SugarT — has grown into a national phenomenon with nationwide distribution and strong media recognition. Created by San Francisco mother of four, Kara Goldin, Hint responds to the countless juice and soda offerings lining supermarket shelves and the eruption of a new beverage competition based on dubious functional claims (gives you energy, calms you down, makes you smarter, and protects you from disease).

“Being included in these noteworthy publications reinforces the message we have been trying to project since our company’s inception.” Goldin says. “We’re just offering a great tasting, extremely simple alternative to plain water that makes the water drinking experience more enjoyable.”

Hint is available in nine delicious flavors including: Pomegranate-Tangerine, Peppermint, Pear, Raspberry-Lime, Lime, Strawberry Kiwi, Tropical Punch, Mango-Grapefruit and Cucumber. Sold in specialty markets, grocery stores, fine spas, luxury hotels and on www.drinkhint.com, Hint has a suggested retail price of $1.69 for 16oz. A case of 24 bottles can be purchased online for $44.
