Nuun


Recommended Posts

I'm just a sucker....I love Nuun.  It would be far cheaper to use a powder, but I'm hooked on the taste, fizziness, and color.  It costs @$22 for 60 tabs...worth @22 cents. I order thru Amazon.

Says right on the box it enhances hydration...(that's it's value), but it gets me to drink @ 4 liters/day, which has really improved my symptoms.

I use I tab per liter (1/2 suggested "dose").  Taste is subtly sweet, unnatural, but nice.  Colors do not correspond...but all additives are natural. 7-8 calories, no sugar. You can carry tabs around to add to water anywhere.

I sound like a commercial...sorry, I just discovered it.

I liked the concept of Nuun and I liked several of the flavors. Unfortunately,  it was the only thing I've had in years with artificial sweetener in it and it made me very nauseous. Original  Gatorade/powerade/Skratch Labs do not do this to me, so I have to assume it's the artificial sweetener. The Nuun tabs were super convenient to carry in my purse so I always had them available to add to water. They are also more economical than Gatorade per serving.

I used to drink them all day long, but then I started making my own drink. I have a 50 oz. pitcher that I fill with water, add a flavoring (usually Crystal Light Pure), 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon potassium. This saves money, and I wasn't sure about the sorbitol and acesulfame K in the Nuun tablets. I carry a little packet of salt/potassium in my purse if I have to mix something up on the go. At this point, I'm so used to salty water that I don't really need the flavoring.
