Sugar-Free Electrolyte Powder | 1000mg High-Sodium Electrolyte Complex | POTS Support & Keto Flu Prevention | 45 Servings Natural Hydration (Orange)

I've consumed several glasses of this product over the past week, and I think it's very reminiscent of another product I've recently tried called Saltivate. The key functional difference between Hydrate Pro and Saltivate seems to be that Saltivate also includes chloride. As explained by a paper entitled "Chloride: the queen of electrolytes?" available via the National Library of Medicine's PubMed, chloride plays "a key role in the regulation of body fluids, electrolyte balance, the preservation of electrical neutrality, acid-base status and it is an essential component for the assessment of many pathological conditions." Individual jars of both products provide 45 servings each, with a serving of Hydrate Pro at a current price of $0.64 and a serving of Saltivate at a current price of $0.80, so the $0.16 difference is probably at least partially due to the missing chloride from this Hydrate Pro product. Another reviewer here commented that this product "doesn’t taste salty and personally I think it tastes better with ice". I agree that it tastes better with ice, as I have a similar opinion about most beverages. But this product actually tastes salty to me, albeit less salty than Saltivate, which is interesting because Hydrate Pro claims 200mg more sodium per serving. This same reviewer also commented that "the sweetness comes from stevia leaf extract which I prefer over aspartame". While I appreciate that natural, non-sugar sweeteners are used in this product, I avoid all artificial sweeteners regardless of relative taste. In looking at the supplement facts for this product, I find it odd that the folks at Hydrate Pro chose to disclose its 0g of vitamin D, as most products would simply leave out this entry from the labeling in the absence of it. I didn't initially notice the 0g of vitamin D, and instead focused on the lack of disclosure with respect to specific form of vitamin D together with the fact that one of the product description images here mentions 200mg of K which isn't mentioned in the supplement facts. I consume vitamin D3 and vitamin K each day because these work together, and so found it odd why Hydrate Pro chose to mention D in the supplement facts and not K. Again, I initially misinterpreted the product description and labeling, as the K mentioned here is actually the chemical symbol for potassium rather than vitamin K. Hydrate Pro should focus on consistent messaging, since the supplement facts instead explicitly spell out this ingredient as potassium.

This dissolves quickly and contains more electrolytes than many other brands that I’ve researched. I like the lemony taste.

I just can't enjoy the flavor of this. It's hard to describe, maybe it's the stevia? I'm sure someone else would enjoy this. Just not for me.

This drink mix is a great way to increase electrolytes and make water taste better. I use this mix after bike rides and while I am at the gym. I also take this on hikes. The taste is decent, not too strong, but also not too weak. It does have a bit of a fake taste, similar to what I have experienced with other electrolyte mixes. Overall this is a good mix.

It's really hot in Arizona, and I do a lot of work outside. This powder is excellent for getting some electrolytes back into my system without all the sugar that most hydration drinks have. It has a very "soft" orange flavor, which tastes great.

I use drinks like this for long-distance hikes (or I just take some capsules with me). This drink is fine for this purpose. It's not delicious, but it will do the job. Just pay attention to what you're getting here, this is not something you would want to drink a lot of without needing it, it's full of salt.

It's salty by design. I hadn't paid attention before I bought it and I read the informative instructions and started out with 30oz water for those who are unfamiliar with sodium based electrolyte beverages like I was. What I really like is that it is made in the USA in a GMP facility and it has no sugar. A lot of the options out there have crappy ingredients and this one offers clean ingredients and no additives. It suits vegan, Paleo, and Keto diets.

The sugar-free orange-flavored drink with electrolytes for hydrationThis drink is pretty good, but next time, I'll cut back on the amount to put into 20 ounces of water, even though a whole tray of ice was involved. The sugar-free part is always tricky because some substances are going to cause you to use the restroom more than average. That happened to me today, and I drank it yesterday, so be aware of how much you drink, just in case that was it. I can’t say it was that because I had something else that could’ve caused it. I just happened to drink coffee yesterday, water with this product, and lots of cookies, and I went without food for a long time and then had Mexican food and dessert. Also, I have been very sleepy today and a little achy. I think I overdid it yesterday. So try it because it isn’t bad, and I suppose the hydration is worth it. I had no problem at the Hairdresser for four hours, where I usually had to go upstairs and powder my nose a few times in the morning.I suppose it could be that the water was hydrating and not being eliminated. Anyway, I thought I would include that information. Today, I had a little bit of the drink, and as I said before, it wasn’t bad. It tastes orange and reminds me of a tiny bit of sodium in orange gelatin with water. It has that kind of consistency. I love that flavor and always have. So try a little bit at a time and test it out. What would work for me and others? You could give this as a gift if it turns out that you love it. It might not work for you and vice versa. Next time, I will put half a scoop and 20 ounces of water in a large mug with the ice tray. That should help.You could give this as a gift if it turns out that you love it. I might add it to the bag with a sports bottle or something suitable for your situation. The recipient might love this—especially someone who’s used Stevia products. I use Stevia, but I’ve never mixed it with other ingredients.Ensure to drink a lot of water when hydrating using products like these. Anything can become a problem. And stay away from stimulants as much as possible. They aren’t healthy anyway. Eat as healthy as possible. Today, I’m craving pro and low carbs.Regarding price, I would check what it says on the product page, and match it against what I wrote and others. Pricing and value can be subjective, and I’m not really quite sure I can tell you if it is valuable to you in this case.Enjoy!
