Does Calorie Free And Sodium Free Powders Have Same Benefits As Plain Water To Reduce Creatine Levels In The Kidney?

My husbands doctor told him he needs to drink water to reduce creatine levels in his kidneys. He likes to add the calorie free, sodium free powders to his water does this have the same benefits as plain water. Before he never drank any water at all he drank coffee and diet soda only.
