Come summertime, it can be difficult trying to ensure you’re consuming enough water and electrolytes when you’re working outside in the heat. We know maintaining hydration and electrolyte balance is significant when you’re sweating excessively, but a lot of us are unaware of how to go about getting these electrolytes back into our bodies, and furthermore, the best methods to take in order to do so.
My aunt recommended Nuun Sport electrolyte drink tablets to my mom to consider giving my dad and I when we are outside working in tremendous heat, and I, for one, am very grateful she did. They’re available from Amazon, which is the link you see bolded above this sentence.
“Nuun Sport is enhanced with electrolytes and bursting with a natural, low-calorie fruity flavor. Mix with water for a hydrating beverage to keep you powering through your next workout. Take a Nuun tablet. Drop it nimbly into 16 ounces of water before, during, or after your workout. Watch in amazement as Nuun transforms mere water into a tasty, electrolyte-replenishing sports drink with low sugar. Drink, and conquer,” says the product description from Amazon.
Each tablet contains complete electrolytes, one gram of sugar, and 15 calories. Some of the available flavours include Orange, Lemon Lime, Citrus Fruit, and Tri-Berry. I’ve sampled the berry flavour myself, and I liked it a lot. It doesn’t contain aspartame, so you don’t get that funky, toxic aftertaste, and it doesn’t taste chalky like some other powders and tablets can when dissolved in water.
I know these tablets are a much healthier alternative to Gatorade thanks to the many additives in Gatorade and other sports drinks, and if you get them through Amazon, each tablet costs less than one dollar. If you’re someone who does a lot of sweating, either voluntarily or involuntarily, consider giving these guys a try.
