Answer:
No, actually vitamin waters are very bad for you.
Even if you were to absorb all the vitamins, vitaminwater might have trouble living up to its image as a salubrious substitute to sugary soft drinks: Each bottle of vitaminwater contains 32.5 grams, or two heaping tablespoons, of crystalline fructose. Fructose is a simple sugar that sweetens many fruits, even though the crystalline fructose in vitaminwater is produced from cornstarch, not fruit, by crystallizing the fructose in fructose-enriched corn syrups. As one would expect, nobody needs these extra sugars, according to Nestle, the NYU nutritionist. One research team has even indicated that the intense sweetness of sugary drinks may be addictive.
“The way that vitaminwater is marketed and positioned it’s made to look more healthful than other sugary beverages, but it’s not – it’s still just a soft drink,” stated Margo G. Wootan, Director of Nutrition Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest. “It has this aura of healthfulness that is not deserved. Adding vitamins and minerals to junk food doesn’t make it healthy.”
What you do need, is a balanced diet (which obviously includes FOOD), with foods from all the major food groups, lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, plenty of milk, and lots of plain water everyday. Try to cut out junk food (cookies, candy, chocolate, chips, pizza, fries, processed foods of any kind etc) - you don't have to cut them out completely - just limit the quantities.
Answer:
No, you need fuel. Vitamins =/= fuel.
