Trace Minerals Power Pak Multivitamin and Multimineral Packets - Electrolyte Support - 1200 mg Vitamin C plus 70+ Trace Minerals - Acai Berry Flavor - 30 Packets

Great product! Tastes great and keeps me hydrated

While I can't say this is the most delicious flavor (it has a scent of basic multivitamins of my childhood), it sure does the trick for general fatigue and muscle cramps. I drink it in more water than they recommend just as I prefer it that way. I really like the formulation, especially keying in on the folate vs folic acid. Methylfolate is very important in this day and age, in my opinion of course. I had been taking another brand of hydration drink tablet. You know, the fizzing ones. But I think this is more what I need and I will be ordering them again for daily supplementation.

Stuff is good in small quantities. I usually use another brand in a giant 64 ounce bottle. But you can’t really do that with this stuff. You gotta get it while the getting is good in those smaller bottles. Only issue I have with this stuff is if you add it to a 16 ounce water bottle that’s full, it’ll run over like a fizzy pop because it fizzes up when it resolves. So get you some and drink up ain’t got no sugar in it. So it taste good.

These Electrolyte Stamina Power Paks are something I like to take when I'm going to be running or working in the heat. I don't use them during running, but often before and sometimes afterward. They seem to help me both prepare for and recover from light to moderately strenuous activities that like to mess with my electrolyte and energy levels. If my electrolytes get really depleted or I'm going to be doing very strenuous activity with a lot of sweating, then I need something like Normalyte NormaLyte Oral Rehydration Salts or TRIORAL - Oral Rehydration Salts ORS (15, One Liter Packets/Box) World Health Organization (WHO) New Formula for Food Poisoning, Hangovers, Diarrhea, Electrolyte Replacement (which is the same stuff as Normalyte but cheaper and without added flavor). But for preventative measures or just recovering from general malaise after running or working in the heat, throwing a pack or two of these Power Paks into a few ounces of water helps. Another great product for general electrolyte support throughout the day, especially when you're regularly sweating, is this: LyteShow - Electrolyte Concentrate for Rapid Rehydration - 40 Servings (With Magnesium, Potassium, Zinc) . (I have more detailed reviews of TRIORAL and LYTEshow on their respective pages.) The one thing these Power Paks have beyond the other electrolyte products is the many vitamins and minerals beyond electrolytes Power Paks contain. Sometimes my body notices that difference. The Power Paks are extremely easy to take and the flavor is pretty good along with the fizziness (which you can reduce if desired by waiting a minute or two after you stir the packet in). I love that I can empty the packet into a glass, throw some water in, and then just shake it gently with my hand--no need for a utensil. I've used both Acai Berry and Concord Grape and like them both. What you shouldn't do is dissolve a packet or two into a large amount of water (a full bottle) and then drink it slowly over time while exercising. It tastes rather horrible and flat. But that was me deviating from the product instructions. I learned my lesson.

I prefer Trace Minerals over Emergen-C because of the mineral content but also taste. The forms of vitamins and minerals they use are more bioavailable on every accord. They also have higher concentrations compared to emergen-c. I prefer the flavor as well, but I am disappointed to see they changed the recipe while they rebranded. Now there is a pretty apparent fake sugar aftertaste (ingredient is “onosweet”. Please go back to the old flavor!!

Great product, love the flavor.

One pack a day gives me just what k need! I feel energized and ready to face the day.

Good Berry Flavor. Dissolves easily. Good vitamin mineral electrolytes. Low sugar. subtle energy.
