Way Too Much Magnesium

I took two of these halfway through a hike. I'm Really glad that I didn't take them sooner and that I didn't follow the recommendation of taking them every 15-30 minutes. By the time I started driving home, my stomach was having issues. I barely made it home before having diarrhea. I can only imagine how unpleasant my experience had been if I'd taken more while out in the woods.

byebye migraines, byebye sticky hydration mixes

2 years ago

Excessively sweating hiker/runner here; I return from runs/hikes 3 lbs lighter due to sweating that much. I chew a tablet 45 minutes in and pop 1 at each 30 minutes mark after (with water interspersed throughout). I'm finally ending the day without dehydration-related migraines. These tablets are my go-to. No more dealing with sticky hydration-watermixes I always spill on myself as I try to drink from my bottle while exhausted. Just pack several of these tablets + plain water = good to go!

Handy and Effective

2 years ago

I have POTS and require more electrolytes than most people. I recently took these on several long, hot hikes in Yosemite National Park. These tablets kept my friends and me going! I chose the watermelon flavor, and, honestly, it tastes awful. But I didn't buy it for the flavor. This is an easy way to keep your electrolytes up on the trail.

Changed everything for me.

3 years ago

I used to get such severe cramping in my thighs and calves. I love to hike so I just pushed through it, and always thought I needed to "drink more water" especially living and hiking in Colorado at elevation. Turns out, I was making myself hyponatremic and throwing off my electrolyte balance so badly by drinking too much excess water that I would get those insane cramps. Finally did some research, realized I needed to balance my electrolyte loss during extreme physical activities like hiking 13ers & 14ers at 4000ft+ elevation gain and averaging 10+ miles. Grabbed these, and on my first intense hike with them I felt like I had performance enhancing drugs as I kept popping two of these tablets under my tongue every hour or so. I just kept going, passing many others along the way. No cramps and I went father and harder than ever before. These fastchews have given me so much more confidence in my abilities. I was so surprised with how little water I consumed. Everyone is different but for me, these are more valuable than simply water on my hikes. I just wish they were cheaper and wish they had a more concentrated version so I didn't have to constantly eat these things while hiking. I've only had the peach flavor, it's great. The orange is not Vegan for some reason, so keep that in mind if it matters.

Fantastic

These really hit the spot. I had some other people try them on my latest hiking trip, and we all agreed. Lemon-Lime is slightly better than Peach, in my opinion, and I'm looking forward to trying the other flavors.

Extreme sweating?

3 years ago

These Fast Chews were a quick & convenient way to replace minerals lost after sweating a lot! On recent hikes on these hot sunny days, our group of 6 hikers were sweating profusely ! I shared my SaltStick Fast Chews & all liked the taste & convenience. We all successfully completed our challenging 12 mile hike without issue!

Love these!

4 months ago

I have been buying these tablets for several years and use them all of the time while hiking. Love that you can just eat the tablets for electrolytes to supplement what you are burning and not have to mix it into your water to dirty your bottle or hydration bladder. The directions do say take "2 tablets every 15-30 minutes" but for hiking I usually find 1 tablet every 30-45 minutes works well for me unless a really hot day.

Very tasty and do their job

These electrolyte chews surprises me on how well they work. I used them first time hiking on a very hot day, they taste delicious, I got the lime ones, and didn't have any muscle cramps after. I am very pleased with them and will buy again.

Love this product...I get cramps very easily, in particular when it's hot and the physical effort is intense. These fast chews have made a huge difference in prolonged activity which also allows me to stay focused longer.
