Hammer Race Day Boost 64 Capsules Review

Hammer Race Day Boost 64 Capsules
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've used Race Day Boost caps for 4 or 5 century rides over the last 2 years and convinced it helps. I typically ride on the weekend with a few friends who are always stronger riders than me. During the centuries when I've taking the caps, I am equal to or stronger than these same folks. Placebo effect? Maybe, but the difference seems significant.

The ElectroMix allows me to replace my electrolytes when working out and sweating alot. It could use a few more minerals and a little sodium, but at least does not contain high calorie sweetners like most sports drinks.
The taste is light and pleasant.

I used these during a 24-hour adventure race in Georgia in the heat of August. I used these capsules with plain water every hour and went through over 22 hours of solid effort without experiencing any cramping, muscle soreness, nausea or any other problems associated with dehydration or electrolyte depletion.
I don't use them all the time, but I would not want to do a hot weather event or long training session without them.

GU Energy Gels, Flavor Mix, 24 Count Review

I purchased the flavor mix pack a few months back. It wasn't from this link, but I assume this is the same product. I will agree that it is very frustrating they don't tell you exactly what it is. This is the review I posted - hope it helps.
I just wanted to leave a note of what the composition of the Mixed Flavors pack looked like. I had a hard time finding information on what exactly I'd get. I'm sure they change could change this from time to time, but this is what I had:
"Roctane" Gu packets (1 each): Blueberry Pomegranate, Vanilla Orange, Cherry Lime, Pineapple. These are the high endurance packets. The Blueberry Pom and Vanilla Orange are both double caffeine, Cherry Lime is normal caffeine and the Pineapple has no caffeine.
Regular Gu Packets had 3 of Chocalate Outrage and Vanilla Bean. The rest had two of each flavor: Strawberry Banana, TriBerry, Expresso Love, Mandarin Orange, Jet Blackberry, Mint Chocolate, Lemon Sublime. The Strawberry Banana, Mint Chocolate, and Lemon Sublime have no caffeine, while Jet Blackberry and Expresso Love are double caffeine - everything else is normal caffeine.
If you're looking to shake it up or find a favorite flavor, I think this is a good buy. I don't know that Gu is the best energy gel out there - I actually think everyone just has to find out what they like in taste and texture and what their stomach can handle. I've had good luck with Gu myself and I look forward to trying all the flavors.

I had to drive from Florida to New Jersey with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. A friend suggested I try this product and it worked. It gave me a lift and enabled me to drive longer and more alert than usual.

Been doing some biking in 100f weather. Got the trails all to our selves but pay the price in sweat. Without this product, I was so fatigued and burned out I could hardly do anything except want to lay down and die. Drink all the water you want, it wont save you...Brought some on the last ride and WOW! What a difference! You can feel the life pouring back into you after around 10-15 of consumption (No bottle for it, dumped a third at a time into my mouth and swished from the camelbak, nasty but it worked)
Why four stars? Well, the packets are nipped on the sides to assist in tearing open. The nips on a lot of packets actually nip beyond the seal and render the product open by maybe third of a milimeter or half the size of the period on the end of this sentence. Doesn't really hurt anything but the powder will cake over time.

I have used this product for several years now. It works. Upon getting depleted and feeling light headed and weak after long hikes on hot days, a packet of Electrolyte Stamina brings me back!
When I originally researched this product I found it to be similar to the easy-to-find Emergen-C product, but with a higher content of electrolytes. The Emergen-C is great also, but again, more trace minerals in Electrolyte-Stamina. I would suggest you compare Electrolyte-Stamina (or even Emergen-C) to Gatorade, a popular electrolyte replacement product. Gatorade (if you can keep up with the branding) doesn't cut it for me, as it has too many other ingredients, such as sugar and sodium, that I don't want or need. Although Gatorade is claimed not to obtain its "sugars" from corn syrup any more, it's made by PepsiCo. I tend to not trust companies of this size, I have learned that no matter what ingredients may be in the product, the emphasis is on promotion and market share rather than quality of ingredients. I would rather support a smaller, (may I say it) less greedy, more solution oriented company like Trace Mineral Research (or Alacer, maker of Emergen-C). Go to Gatorade's web site, then Trace Mineral Research's website and you will see what I mean.
Good health!

Trace Minerals Trace Mineral Tablets Review

Trace Minerals Trace Mineral Tablets

Someone told me years ago, after I complained about a recurring muscle cramp in my back, that I should try a mineral supplement. Very skeptical, I tried anyway, and was startled to find it was true. Several times since then, when I've forgotten to take them for a day or two, the pain returns, and goes away when I resume. I used to use liquid colloidal minerals, but these large pills are less expensive and easier to take. It doesn't fix all muscle cramps, but it has certainly improved my health noticeably. Try them.

Sportquest Thermolyte MetaSalt Salt Capsules, 100 Capsules Review

I used these throughout all my training in the Florida summer of 2009 for a marathon in the fall. I took three before a long run, and two-three every hour. I followed with three the hour after a run and maybe three more an hour after that. I did not have heat headaches if I followed this routine. With Enduralytes, I could do the same and still get heat headaches. I do also make a mix of orange juice or apple juice and pedialyte in my water bottles on really hot days (90 degrees and above.) Good product.

Ultima Replenisher, Wild Raspberry, 90-Serving Canister Review

Ultima Replenisher, Wild Raspberry, 90-Serving Canister
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have been using the Ultima sports drinks for about 3 years now. I commute 30km on my bikedaily in the heat, swim, and work with a trainer in the gym several times a week. I don't like hi-carb sports drinks and they make me groggy and queasy. I have had good results with the ultima. I use it in my bike bottles daily. I drink it before and after workouts. I sweat like a pig. In the height of summer I leave puddles on the ground when i stop at a red light. My own personal experience is that it helps with the fatigue and cramping. Look at the label and you can see that it is a good balance of electrolytes without the empty carbs.
That's the good news. The bad news? Taste. No way around it. The taste is awful. Raspberry is not bad. Orange is ok. The other flavors are simply wretched.
As noted by other reviewers it takes some effort to dissolve the powder. Don't expect instant gratification. If you just dump it into cold water you will end up with clumps of it. It is easier to dissolve it in some warm water with vigorous shaking. Then add ice / cold water to dilute it to the proper concentration. Even then it takes a lot of shaking/stirring to get most of it dissolved.
It would get 5 stars if it weren't for the taste and the difficulty dissolving the powder.

Great for electrolyte replenishment during long workouts. Electrolyte Stamina tablets work faster and more efficiently than any gel or electrolyte drink. If taken properly they prevent cramps and keep you from feeling drained after a 5hour bike ride.
