Comments about NUUN Active Hydration Tablets - 12 serving:
I use Nuun tablets for:
- during my longer training runs
- pre- and post-run hydration
- emergency hydration (keep in my gym bag & car)
They come in a bunch of flavors, all of which are great. They have a tiny bit of carbonation, which I like. It's nowhere near soda, but it makes them more refreshing than if they were flat.
They are very cost effective compared to buying any other liquid hydration product. You can snap each tab in half if you want to make only 8 oz. Or you can add additional tabs if you want a stronger flavor. You control it.
The only downside is that you have to wait 2-3 minutes for them to dissolve. But the big upside is... in places where most people will just have water, you'll have a flavorful hydration drink.

Comments about NUUN Active Hydration Tablets - 12 serving:
I love this stuff. I think I started drinking it on RAGBRAI several years ago, and I've been a fan since. Mainly I use it cycling, and I think it helps me feel better overall on hot days and it helps prevent cramping.
With running, I drink it more often post-run. It's not ideal to take on a long run, as the fizz factor will spray you when you open your bottle.
I like Nuun so much I find myself drinking it event when I'm not exercising. I get cravings for the stuff.
I find it very versatile and like the taste as directed (1 tab/16oz h2o) or a lighter mix, I'll put one in a 22 or 24oz bottle when cycling. Like any of these drinks, preferences vary.

Comments about NUUN Active Hydration Tablets - 12 serving:
I like the taste, but for what they are used for who cares. The Fruit Punch and the Lemon are pretty good-and help when you need a little more the just H20-beats lugging Gateorade.

Took this product to Utah last week. Used it to flavor my filtered water. NUUN must be a code name for bowel clean-out. Bring extra paper...

Comments about NUUN Active Hydration Tablets - 12 serving:
I would not get the fruit punch again. I got stick of the flavor almost immediately. I used two tablets in my 3 liter bladder. I may try just one next time to see if I can still tolerate it or try another flavor.

Comments about NUUN Active Hydration Tablets - 12 serving:
I've been using Nuun tablets for about a year now. Gatorade Pro used to be my everyday running fuel, but it has way more carbs than I wanted to take in on 3-5 mile runs. I need a higher amount of sodium when I run, so plain water won't cut it. Nuun falls perfectly in between the two. It has the electrolytes to help keep me hydrated without all the extra carby sweetness.

Comments about NUUN Active Hydration Tablets - 12 serving:
I love these Nuun tablets! I've been an active user for two years. They are an excellent quick boost anytime or anywhere you have access to a bottle of water. I use whether backpacking, day hiking, cycling, working at the office or a quick hit late in the day at home. While the directions say 1 tablet for 16 oz, I prefer to use 1.5 tablets in a tall glass of water (approx. 12 oz) as I like it a bit more "carbonated". The tablets are made so that you can easily break in half. While hiking I use 2 tablets in a 32 oz Nalgene...less fizzy but still very good. I just did a 4-day packpacking trip and was so glad I took a tube of the tablets to add to my Nalgene at the end of each day. The tube makes it easy to store in your car, bike bag, backpack, etc. (And it's pretty lightweight if you are backpacking.) My favorites are grape and fruit punch which I could only find online at REI.

Comments about NUUN Active Hydration Tablets - 12 serving:
This product is such a dissapointment, I got about half way through my first tube before I discovered it contained Sorbitol and Polyethylene Glycol- both of which are nasty! You can buy NUUN Natural but that has so much Stevia it is too sweet and tastes like full-on sacrine. So I'm back to mixing fruit juice with water and adding a pinch of Sea Salt.

Comments about NUUN Active Hydration Tablets - 12 serving:
I discovered Nuun as an alternative electrolyte hydration option to Gatorade about 5 years ago while shopping before my annual backpacking loop in the High Sierras. Less weight to carry, no carbs, easy to prepare, and more sodium and potassium. I am now hooked. I dropped coffee, then tea, for Nuun as a morning beverage for everyday use.
My daily recipe is a 12 oz can of lemom or lime flavored sparkling water, a splash of lemon juice, 3-4 oz of pomegranete/blueberry juice, 1 tab Nuun and 4 cubes of ice in a 20+ oz nalgene OTB bottle. Of course on hiking trips, it's just 2 tabs in a 32 oz bottle.
Ever wake up with a hangover? Try my morning recipe for help...go for the Tri-Berry, my favorite

Comments about NUUN Active Hydration Tablets - 12 serving:
Most sport drinks contain too much sugar which interferes with my attempts to train my body to burn fat. I had been running and hiking with only water but found I really needed to add salts. Rather than sucking on a salt packet I tried the NUUN tablets. They are really working great for me so far. On long hot runs I'm not feeling weak from either a lack of water or electrolytes. Now I only feel weak because I'm actually tired. The flavor is light and best described as being a little flat, but honestly I prefer it when exercising. Strong flavors put me off and I end up drinking less. Very good and simple to use product.
