All our pouches available for purchase contain 30 pods

A pack of 30 pods vary in cost from $35.99 which makes 30 x 32 fl oz drinks, which is the same as $0.60 per 16 fl oz drink.

Based on the available scientific evidence, it can be concluded that Vitapod is a nutritious drink that provides a comprehensive range of essential vitamins, minerals and polyphenols. Using Vitapod, can improve overall health and help reduce the risk of chronic diseases.  

The calories in each beverage varies and is clearly stated on the website as well as the packaging. All our beverages are low calorie, ranging between 4 and 20 calories per beverage.

Yes, none of our drinks contain genetically modified ingredients.

Our drinks do not contain common food allergens, including dairy, gluten, nuts, soy, and eggs. They are produced in a facility which processes products containing milk, eggs, soybeans, wheat, shellfish, fish oil, tree nuts, and peanut.

Yes, our pods are formulated without dairy ingredients. They are produced in a facility which processes products containing milk.

Yes, our pods are formulated without soy ingredients. They are produced in a facility which processes products containing soy.

Yes, our pods are formulated without gluten ingredients and are certified to <20ppm. They are produced in a facility which processes products containing wheat.

All our beverages are sugar free, except Sports+, which contains 2g of organic cane sugar to provide energy to working muscles.

Our beverages are naturally sweetened with plant stevia and erythritol. Stevia extract is naturally derived from the leaves of the plant species stevia rebaudiana. Steviol glycosides is the active compound in stevia extract. This plant has 30 to 150 the sweetness of sugar. Erythritol is derived from starches in grains and contains only 6% of the calories of sugar with 70% of the sweetness.

All of our drinks are vegan except Beauty+, which includes collagen as a key ingredient.

Yes, all of our drinks are kosher certified.

We do not currently have the halal certification but we are working with our suppliers to gain the certification.

Yes. The flavors used in our drinks are extracted from natural sources. Learn more about our other ingredients here.

Our sealed pods have a shelf life of 2 years. Our products are clearly marked with an expiration date on each pod.

Drinks marked with a plus sign have a unique blend of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants that are lacking in the typical American diet.  The drinks without a plus sign contain electrolytes, minerals and antioxidants but not the vitamins, so there is no risk of overconsumption of vitamins.

The maximum daily intake varies by each drink and age.

Yes, all Vitapod beverages except Energy+ (due to its caffeine content) can be enjoyed by children.

All our beverages, except the shots, are designed to be 16.9oz. Making them on the medium setting, 8.5oz, will produce a much stronger drink. Currently our shots include Beauty+ and Immunity+, which are designed to be 3.5oz. However, any pod can be consumed at any size to your taste.

In order to achieve a taste profile that fits your needs, you are able to taste control your pods. Simply press the 16.9oz button (tall glass) option, and use a Vitapod 1 liter bottle under the machine 

When it has reached the 500ml level, hold down the go button to dispense more water into the bottle. This way you have the same great ingredients, with a lighter taste profile, not as sweet.

Most hydration competitors rely on sodium and sugar. While this can help improve hydration, it can also be incredibly unhealthy to consume so much sodium and sugar on a regular basis. Our formulas are very advanced in comparison. We use the minimum level of sodium and include other electrolytes such as calcium, magnesium and potassium to ensure the optimal level of hydration. We also do not have sugar in any of our pods – except the Sports+ pod which is geared toward fitness and recovery.

Additionally, Vitapod does more than simply hydrate. Each of our pods marked with a + is overflowing with vitamins, minerals and flavonoids which are vastly under consumed by the average American. We take each beverage beyond hydration to nourish our bodies and minds with each pod.

Flavonoids are antioxidants developed in plants over millions of years with the purpose of protecting them from UV radiation and viruses. They are important because on average, Americans consume only 10-15% of the recommended 400-500 mg. Vitapod beverages include up to 370 mg of flavonoids per serving, making it easy to close this essential nutrition gap simply by drinking delicious, healthy beverages.

Sustainability

Unfortunately, every town is different. Check with your local municipality to see if your bag of pods will be recycled. Otherwise, we are happy to provide a recycle bag with each order to make recycling easy. Simply fill the bag with empty pods and pouches and send them back to us in the pre-paid envelope. We’ll take care of the recycling and our partner will turn your used pods into brand new products. Need another recycle bag? We’ll be happy to send one. Just click here.

Our pods are specially formulated with an organic compound that accelerates biodegradation.

No. We’ve carefully created our packaging without these harmful plastics.

Our pods use 90% less plastic than a typical single use bottle.
