Nuun Multi Flavor Nuun Tube - 4 Pack

Nuun Multi Flavor Nuun Tube - 4 Pack description

The Nuun Multi Flavor 4 Pack gives you options: Choose tri berry, citrus fruit, lemon lime, or kona cola for your H2O. The subtly flavored tablets dissolve in your water and provide you with electrolytes for when your hiking, climbing, running, biking, or just hanging out. Since you don't need sugar to hydrate, Nuun left the sticky stuff out of its tablets. Each lightweight tube contains 12 tablets, which provides 6 quarts of electrolyte-rich water, so you have no excuse for not taking a tube with you into the backcountry.

I discovered these tabs on this years High Pass Challenge, a 115 mile ride up Mt St Hellens. I'd brought along the drops, etc, what a pain. Nuun tabs were at the water stops so I loaded my bottle and camel back, they were great. I have struggled with cramps before, I think these tasty little guys save the ride for me. Easy, quick, and effective, good taste.. and no cramps.

At first I wasn't a fan of Nuun, I gotta be honest. But after a while, I grew attached to them. They are convenient in the tube that they come in, and when hiking, its easy just to drop into a bladder or bottle and go. It beats the hell out of carrying a ziplock bag full of gatorade power.

I've known about nuun for a long time now, but because sports drinks have always upset my stomach while training and racing, I never tried them. Until I was stuck in the Where's Karl? RV with Karl Meltzer, Matt Hart and Senior during Karl's Appalachian Trail speed record attempt this summer. Karl and Matt drank nuun instead of plain water always. The standard dialogue at each crew stop was: "How much water do you want in your pack? How many tabs of nuun?" I decided to give it a try. Besides being super convenient and easy to manage (you don't have to deal with mixing messy powders or diluting syrupy drinks), they're not too sweet and they are absolutely great for electrolyte dosage. Plus, they don't upset my stomach. For the first time ever, I'm able to get the electrolytes that I need in a drink. That's huge. I'm a big fan of the tri-berry. It's my first choice and I rarely drink anything else. Lemon+Lime and Citrus Fruit are good too. But Cola? Can't do it. Won't do it.
