Please make these with xylitol or erythritol but leave out the nasty stevia. Someone needs to do this. There are zero packets that only contain Xylitol or erythritol. They are the only two without the nasty aftertaste. Please!!!
While I have used GU Gels for decades even pinning them to my shorts and eating one every 5 miles at Boston, I do not like any of the flavors of their electrolyte tabs. To me they are overly intense and sweet w/ an artificial flavor. Sorry
When biking for under an hour, I don't want a sports drink with sugar, so I use these instead. Especially for indoor sessions, when I sweat a lot. I can't say I notice a big difference in how I feel between these and water, but they say the electrolytes make a difference.
It's also nice having some taste (especially when otherwise the water will taste like water bottle). It encourages me to drink more. I like the strawberry-lemonade flavor. The other flavors I find unpalatable, tasting like chemicals or medicine. Of course, your taste may vary.
I am big fan and use electrolyte tabs daily, sometimes 2+/day. We all have varying views on favor profiles and this one is OK for me at best.
I sweat a lot, and fund these tabs help prevent cramping on long rides. I add 1/16 in my bottle around the house to keep me hydrated.
Not overly sweet. Two thumbs up !!
Good for long rides on cool days and maybe the first 20 miles on warmer days.
I like this format of hydration for shorter rides, I tend to get the electrolytes from the Roctane or normal GU Energy packets on the longer rides. Or use this as a supplement bottle on a century.
I'm using for the 1st half of my 50 mile summer rides. Good hydration, no cramping. But I have to really shake to dissolve it in water. Hammer Fizz works equally well, dissolves more quickly, and is cheaper.
Glutten free! Great tasting so far and in my opinion better than Nun tabs.
Again I have been using these for awhile now and really love the taste of the Lemon-Lime. Really like the ease of mixing.
They taste great and do the job. As a bonus, Gu gives you more tabs than Nuun does. Win-win.
Easy to use and they work for me. Great flavors strawberry lemonade is my favorite.
These are good tablets, the flavors are not bad, and has enough sodium for my liking. They are not scored for breaking in half to fill 750 bottles. I carry a few in my ride wallet in case I run out of water so I can still replenish electrolytes on long summer rides.
Strawberry lemonade tastes great and get all your hydration needs. Been using these and Nuun tabs. Pretty comparable in my opinion
Easy to carry additional tabs for those long rides. No mixing or shaking to do on your ride.
Love it
The taste could be a little better and I wish the tablet would be enough for a 24 oz and not a 16 oz water bottle.
Great
These taste great & are a really good deal price wise! A+
So far, these GU tabs are my favorite. I've been using a few other brands, but I found the taste of these to be superior!
