Section: Nutrition/Hydration

Proper hydration is essential for runners and other athletes. Sports drinks are good options, but many people don’t enjoy their very sugary taste and/or experience stomach problems from the excessive carbohydrate intake. Looking for an alternative? Try nuun’s portable electrolyte hydration. Read on for our comprehensive review and the results of our product testing.

Product: nuun portable electrolyte hydration
Price: $6.50 per tube (12 tablets)
Rating: Excellent 8.6/10.0
Pros:Effective hydration on the go; convenient; versatile; won’t cause stomach discomfort; variety of flavors
Cons: Lacks vitamins; no individually packaging
Overall: An effective and convenient hydration option for runners, cyclists and other endurance athletes.

nuun is a portable electrolyte tablet. The tablets come in a small container that resembles Airborne and quickly dissolve when added to 16-20oz. of water. They are also effervescent so no mixing or shaking is required for the tablets to dissolve (unlike many sports drink powders).

Yes, that’s interesting and I want to know what are the exact advantages for this portable electrolyte hydration… I am interested in a healthy point of view, not a practical one.

But does these electrolyte tablets contain enough antioxidants? I highly doubt that they do. Will buy one just to try it out.

I didn’t like the idea of these, but once I tried them, I really started to like them.

Plus they’re super easy to mix!
