PRODUCT INFORMATION
If the afternoon soft drink is a habit worth keeping but not worth the sugar, this is a different kind of can. Arepa The Brain and Gut Soda in Lemon Lime is built on carbonated New Zealand artesian spring water with apple, lemon and lime juice, sharpened with sea salt.
What sets it apart from the rest of the Arepa range is the fibre: soluble corn fibre and Bimuno GOS, alongside L-theanine. Caffeine-free and 99 percent sugar free.

Instructions
Serve well chilled and drink straight from the can or over ice. Arepa's direction is one full 250mL can a day, and the brand notes it is worth using it daily for at least a week before judging how it suits you. Store unopened cans in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight, and refrigerate before drinking. Once opened, drink it the same day and keep it refrigerated in the meantime.

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, taking prescription medication or under medical care, talk to your doctor or pharmacist before use.
