Liquid I.V. Hydration Multiplier - Lemon Lime - Hydration Powder Packets | Electrolyte Drink Mix | Easy Open Single-Serving Stick | Non-GMO | 48 Sticks …

I've been getting these in my Walmart goodie bags for a while but it was SO helpful after I had to leave work after a kidney infection and a fever. I had chugged water to try to flush everything, and because the fever made me thirsty. I was throwing up and all of this brought on such severe muscle cramps that I could see my calf caving in when it happened. I was so sick and laying on a heating pad, but when the leg cramps kicked in, I'd have to jump out of bed and stomp and stretch on the ground until both legs stopped cramping, more times than I could count, so I really couldn't get rest despite trying. I took my regular potassium and magnesium after this, and I found a resting position where it seemed to be least likely to happen, and I looked up possible causes. I read that it could be a lack of sodium from water intoxication. I didn't think chugging salt was a great idea, so I scoured my cabinets for anything that might help. I found this from my Walmart pickup goodie bag and the leg cramps INSTANTLY went away. I already know I sometimes drink too much water, and sometimes I get these cramps at night anyways, but not as severely, so I purchased another bag. This REALLY helped me when I was sick and couldn't get comfortable. I can't give it a high enough rating. Definitely worth the price if you need it!

I dont know why this doesn't show the nutritional information on the product page. Ingredients, yes, but amounts, no. If I was shopping around, I likely would never have purchased this. But I had tried it before and already knew that it was a legit electrolyte replacer. But here's the thing. There are any so-called electrolyte replacers on the market. Don't buy this if you are just looking to flavor your water. Buy this if you profusely sweat, work hard labor outside, or go for long intense hikes, or for emergency use if water is scarce (I like keeping some in my car). A true electrolyte replacer of a serious kind will have quite a bit of sodium (and sugar) and will not taste all that great. But it will help your body quickly, and could be matter of feeling well or feeling bad, or maybe difference between life and death. It isn't water itself that hydrates you, it is minerals/electrolytes. Did you know that if you drank too much water and didnt have enough actual electrolytes, that you are in fact dehydrating yourself further? This is because your body is being diluted. So add in an "electrolyte multiplier" such as Liquid IV, and you will be set. Keep this in mind in case you are the type that aims for drinking a gallon or so of water a day (or be sure to eat foods that will replenish electrolytes). Not seriously dehydrated? Then go with something more low key. Something that may have just a little sodium, sugar, and minerals. Some are even sugar free. That's good for those not into drinking water or much of any fluid or watery foods, of for light weight activity, basic hot day, just feeling run down. Just need the little extra to top off small losses. Save Liquid IV for more intense stuff, big electrolye losses. 4.5 stars. Will likely buy again. Would like to see them include the detailed packet information, That being said, I bought it for use in intense sweat situations and true dehydration scenarios. I am a bit of a prepper, and so I will be adding this to my hiking bag, emergency car bag, get home bag/bug out bag, medical kit. If food is scarce or low or only foods with little sodium or other minerals are available, then the need to replace is that much more vital. If you have ever been truly dehydrated, it is a scary feeling. The immense relief that can come from the first few sips is amazing. Ingredients Pure Cane Sugar, Dextrose, Citric Acid, Salt, Potassium Citrate, Sodium Citrate, Dipotassium Phosphate, Silicon Dioxide, Rebaudioside A (Stevia Leaf Extract), Natural Flavor, Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid), Vitamin B3 (Niacinamide), Vitamin B5 (D-Calcium Pantothenate), Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine Hydrochloride), Vitamin B12 (Cyanocobalamin)

This stuff is effective and delicious. I have always been a person who has struggled to drink enough water. I'm often dehydrated and this can lead to brain fog and migraines - especially during and after workouts. When I use Liquid IV, I put 1/4 in each large bottle of water I drink. The yummy flavor is enough to keep me drinking throughout the day and by the end of the day I have used one entire Liquid IV dose. I do notice a difference from when I am hydrated with just water versus being hydrated with Liquid IV. I feel like the biggest difference I notice is that Liquid IV helps reduce brain fog. If ever I feel a migraine coming on, I quickly use Liquid IV and notice a quick reduction in my symptoms. During fasts, I also use Liquid IV to ensure I am getting enough electrolytes. I have tried the other flavors of Liquid IV but Lemon Lime continues to be my all-time favorite. The visual identity is well-displayed on the packaging and the info has a decent hierarchy to where you know what you're looking at and how to use the product. The only thing I would change is that I wish they sold a stackable version.

The product has a really high carb count. That means you can drunk this when you need a little help Sunday morning. If you drink one everyday so you’ll stay ‘healthy’…if by healthy you mean fat, then yes everyday.

Deliver all day in the Arizona sun with no AC, past 3 years I’ve used liquid IV as my primary hydration method. I’ve had heat illness in the past, but not since liquid IV. 2-3 during the day during the summer and I’m good to go!
