22-11-2024I cannot express how awful the watermelon is. The initial flavor is nice but then you get this horrible, I mean just GOD AWFUL salt taste. I threw the bottle away after two tablets, I ate the second only because I believed the first had to be a fluke. It was not. The orange is great and has replaced Saltstick gel caps with caffeine as my go to for runs past 45 minutes.

> 3 dayI got dehydrated once on the trail and wasn’t right for 3 days. I started using these while out backpacking and they are a game changer. I never want to dehydrate again and these will be a big part of keeping me going while hiking.

> 3 dayLove the flavor and small enough to easily carry on the run. I use these on long runs or when its hot out to help keep from cramping and to stay properly hydrated (along with water).

Greater than one weekThis didnt do as much for me as Id hoped but the taste was pretty good. Great ingredients and an amazing company! Just not for me. I still recommend it.

> 3 dayI moved to a hot and humid region about three years ago. The heat has been so hard on me that I have had to cut my running from about 40 miles a week down to 20 miles a week because my body ached so much during my runs. Not just my legs at the end of a long run, but my entire body just aches and aches during short runs. I knew that the issue was hydration, but water alone wasnt cutting it, even Smartwater. I ended up suffering from kidney stones, which my doctor attributed to general dehydration. A coworker suggested I look into some sort of electrolyte replenishing product to take during my runs. I did some research and was able to pick up a couple of sticks of Saltstick caps at a running event. I tried them on a long run on a not terribly warm, yet still humid day (68 degrees, about 80% humidity). I took two chews with about a cup of water 30 minutes before I ran a 1:45 run, and I ate one chew with a drink of water every 15 minutes during my run. The results were UNBELIEVABLE! I had NO ACHES or SORENESS at all during the run. I felt the natural fatigue in my legs at the end of my run, but I did not have any of the upper body soreness or overall aches Id typically experienced when running under those conditions. I tested the chews again under warmer conditions (90 minute run, 74 degrees, 90% humidity), which were perfect conditions for the general soreness I began experiencing when I moved here. For this run, I took two chews with about a cup of water 30 minutes before I ran, and I ate TWO chews with a drink of water every 15 minutes during my run. Again, I had the natural fatigue at the end of my run, but I had NO general aches or soreness! I feel like these chews have changed my life and I am so relieved that I can start working my way back up to my former running volume! The one minor caveat I have about the chews is that I have noticed that the following day I need to go to the bathroom far more often than usual, but that is worth it for the relief these chews have brought me.
