Right on with mixing your own. Salt substitute (such as nu-salt) is a great source of potassium, and magnesium powder is cheaply available also. This product has only 150mg of potassium per serving, while the RDA is about 3500-4500mg. Nu-salt contains 530mg per serving. The 3oz product has about 85 doses. A Two-pack costs $5 on Amz.
I know it was just a joke but you definitely need electrolytes if you have severe dehydration or you'll end up in the ER on an IV. Drinking plain water just made the symptoms worse and worse.

Pedialyte has sucralose, Walmart's generic Pedialyte has stevia, this one has stevia. There's only one brand I've seen that has monk's fruit extract (which I haven't had any gross aftertaste from so far) and it's really expensive.

At this point I've gone back to diluted Gatorade/Powerade, whatever's on sale. If you look up "make your own rehydration drink" most sites just say 'add sugar and salt' which is a terrible idea because you need dextrose, salt, carbonate, magnesium, and potassium. Why they feel the need to add stevia or sucralose when there's already dextrose in the formula is beyond me. I would rather have fully unsweetened and leave it to me whether I want awful synthetic sweeteners or awful 'natural' sweetners (stevia is disgusting idk why it's so popular).

There's a market out there for hydration packets/tablets that just have normal dextrose in them but aren't unhealthily oversweetened like the *ades.
I'm surprised to hear complaints about the taste. Not all flavors are equal but I like these better than gatorade. Everyone in my family enjoys them. In for 20.

Quote from v4vendetta :
Liquid IV is 11g of sugar per 16g packet. The packet recommends mixing with 16oz water but it's still way too sweet for me when I mix it with a full 25oz bottle. You're right though, Nuun is an acquired taste.

Agree. I've used their vitamin C tablets for years. I've wondered how the hydration ones compared.

Most flavors are decent to good. Fruit punch is ass though.

Got the last deal for a similar price. Had a few drinks already and I'm liking it, ordering more.

I used to drink Nuun all the time before trying something different. I'm not too crazy about the fizziness of it, but the flavors are great. I'm in for 2 just to mix up my hydration routine when I'm working out.

This product does not have enough sodium. I recommend Kinderlyte. Kinderlyte has 830 mg of sodium per packet. You can also get it on Amazon and some big box stores carry it as well.

Kinderlyte Electrolyte Powder, Advanced Hydration, Easy Open Packets, Supplement Drink Mix (Lemon Lime, 16 Count) https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B08NW...UTF8&psc=1

My second choice is Pedialyte Sport. It has 650 mg of sodium per packet. I can find Pedialyte Sport at Target in the Atlanta area.

Pedialyte Sport Electrolyte Powder, Fast Hydration with 5 Key Electrolytes for Muscle Support Before, During, & After Exercise, 12 Lemon Lime & 12 Fruit Punch, 0.6-oz Packets (24 Count) https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B08GK...QJD3MKWRGC

If you sweat a lot and find yourself cramping after a hard workout or other strenuous activity, try either one of these. I used to drink pickle juice in order to replenish the sodium I lost. It was the only thing I could find with enough sodium to stop the cramping, especially in my legs. Now I just use the packets and some water and when I am in a pinch, I swallow the powder straight from the packet. Cramps are gone within 2-3 minutes or if I did a good job hydrating while active, I never get leg cramps. Gatorade, powerade, etc., are a joke. They do very little in the way of rehydration for people who really sweat.

LoL. If they were 'hydration' tablets you wouldn't need to add water.

😂😂 first the tablets have to be hydrated, and then they can hydrate you 😂😂

Idk, I think once you get your fluids back to normal you aren't really dehydrated, if you have lost other minerals or vitamins then that is a deficiency other than "dehydration" so by definition Gatorade poweraid etc do just fine to "hydrate" you

Can you share what the one with monk fruit is? I Googled but wanted to see if it was different than the one you were mentioning!

What do you consider having your fluids back to normal? Which fluids?

The only one I found was on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Sacred-Eat...08H3L5GPB/ $30 for 30 servings isn't /too/ bad considering Gatorade is $2 at the gas station for 2.5 servings so despite sounding expensive I guess it's just 'reasonably priced'.

TL;DR these are pretty good. I'd give them a 6/10. I think they are about half of what you need. Still a good deal even at 2x dosage. I'm in for 4. Thanks, OP!

$1.00/serving is a pretty fair benchmark for hydration powders. This deal comes in at $0.28. So, even at 2x dosage, these are still a good price. Also, they are handy to carry in the tubes.

Hydration and electrolytes are a big deal. Everyone needs them. 75% of people are not adequately hydrated. Personally, I have shortened bowel syndrome and work out vigorously >90 minutes a day. So, it's critical for me. I have to take some sort of hydration supplement every day. In a pinch, I will just do a pinch of sea salt.

I have tried nearly every hydration product on the market. There is a lot of hype. But salt is salt. Your body needs more than just sodium chloride. Potassium and magnesium are also critial.

In my personal experience, Drip Drops 10/10 are the hands-down best. It's used by the US military. (Though I read it was the only hydration powder that has a procurement spec.) That's what I will use when working out.

Liquid IV 9/10 is my go-to because it's almost as good and available at Costco.

Don't sweat the glucose - People who are doing keto get the keto flu, which seems to be helped by electrolytes and hydration. They need hydration salts but will often avoid ones with sugar. That's probably not necessary. A significant recent medical finding is that glucose dramatically increases electrolyte transport. And, having done keto, with a continuous glucose monitor, I can tell you that your body creates glucose naturally. (It's weird, but exercise will cause my glucose to spike as high as 150ml/dL sometimes.) Glucose is the fuel source for your brain. I have never had a hydration powder cause of a major glucose spike in my blood.

Here's some interesting stuff on hydration. https://rehydrate.org/index.html

The bottom line: these are a great deal worth having on the shelf.
