Pedialyte
Does anyone use Pedialyte as an electrolyte solution in their hydration systems?
If so what is a good mixture to start out with? Water to Pedialyte ratio? Compared to Gatorade, what seems to work better? Thanks

Nuun is much better, in my opinion. I have used it with great success. One tablet per 16 ounces of water will help you during and after an event. I don't use it in my hydration pack, if it's a very long ride I pack it separate, or else I just leave it at the truck and enjoy after the ride.
Low calories, it's an electrolyte replacement, not a sports drink. It makes it a bit fizzy, so wait for the bubbles to settle before twisting the lid down tight.

I go simple.
In my 3 liter C-Bak I add a pinch of salt and a squeeze of lime. If, on the rare occasion I feel like getting creative, I will add a few ounces of coconut water. It was 105F when I finished riding yesterday. I did fine. |

I've been using Elete, found it at a bicycle store, no 'sweet' taste to clog my mouth up.....
http://new.eletewater.com/ actually the first taste was awful but it has grown on me....

Elyte Sport, add a couple oz's to a gallon and some Tang for taste, if you like orange. I have been trying the Camelbac stuff Elixr and that seems to help, but I think the ElyteSport was the best:
