Nuun Nuun Tube - 8 Pack

Nuun Nuun Tube - 8 Pack description

Leave sugary, over-concentrated sports drinks in the convenience store, and messy mixes in the cupboard, because a few nuun tablets in your hydration bladder or water bottle will do the job far better. What's nuun? It's our favorite solution to the hydration problem: tablets that transform normal H2O into an optimized blend of electrolytes, without the sugar. No more messy drink mixes, no more plastic bottle waste, and no more pre-planning. Just a 12-tablet tube of nuun in our pack, pocket, or gym bag, and we're always carrying 1.5 gallons of instant sports hydration when we need it. Nuun tastes great (not sicky-sweet or salty, ever) and has only five calories in every 16-ounce serving. The 8-pack contains eight 12-tablet tubesthat's 24 gallons of nuun.

Bottom Line: Pre-race, pre-workout, or post-party, nuun is better hydration without the hassle.

I brought a thing of nuun on a backpacking trip and threw a few in a water bottle several times along the trip. For some reason the nuun made the water almost "carbonated" and honestly I didn't like the taste. Maybe I am just a gatorade guy at heart, and while I hear a lot of people saying good things about Nuun, I am just going to stick with Gatorade.

Perfect thing to alternate with water or replace water on long hikes or on climbs (took mine to climb Kilimanjaro). Light taste and just slightly carbonated, which I found refreshing. Gatorade and those things are too heavy, sweet, and thick for me -- especially for long trips where you're exerting everyday, all day. You'd end up with way too much sugar. And they're the easiest thing to carry and use on the run. Just plop one in your Camelback or Nalgene. Tried Lemon Lime and Citrus. Really loved Lemon Lime.
