Nuun Sport Electrolytes Drink Tablets (Box of 8 Tubes)

Q: Will Nuun Eliminate Cramps?
A: Not only are cramps painful enough to stop you in your tracks, they're also completely involuntary. Good news is, yes, Nuun can help alleviate cramps by keeping you hydrated better than water alone. Each sip gives you a consistent mix of water and electrolytes to ensure you stay properly hydrated and cramp-free.
Q: What's In Nuun?
A:
- Four essential electrolytes: sodium potassium, magnesium and calcium.
- A nice light refreshing flavor that's not over powering when you're on the go.
- A bit of fizzy stuff to ensure it dissolves quickly without having to mix or shake, which disappears once the Nuun tab is completely dissolved.
- A smidgen of color in the form of riboflavin (vitamin B2) & beet juice depending on the flavor.
- And of course a dash of love.
Q: What's Not In Nuun?
A: No sugar, because athletes do no want to have upset stomachs or overwhelm taste buds, and to give you more control over your calorie intake.
No artificial colors because neon green isn't necessary for proper hydration.

Q: Why No Carbs?
A: A one size fits all mentality doesn't work in active lives. It is  better to focus on keeping you hydrated and let you decide where your carbs come from. Whether it's gels, bars or other nutrition sources, you choose what's best for you.

Q: Can I Mix Nuun With Other Drinks?

Q: Is Nuun Vegetarian?
A: Nuun and U Natural Hydration contain no animal derived raw materials. They are enjoyed by vegetarians, omnivores and carnivores alike.

Q: Does Nuun Contain Corn?
A: Nuun and U Hydration have no corn in them, but as some of the ingredients are processed from corn as starting material, Nuun cannot guarantee it is 'corn free' for those of you with corn allergies.

Q: What Are Electrolytes?
A: As you might guess from their name, electrolytes are electrically charged, which means that they can conduct electrical impulses. The body needs electrical impulses to make muscle cells contract. The foods we eat and fluids we drink contain mineral salts, which form electrolytes when they dissolve in the fluids in our bodies. The body has to perform a delicate balancing act to keep water and electrolyte levels just right.
For example, whenever sodium levels dip too low, the kidneys are stimulated to produce more urine, which restores the balance by lowering the amount of water in the blood. And when the sodium level gets too high, thirst develops, stimulating the person to drink. A hormone is also secreted by the brain in response to thirst that causes the kidneys to produce less urine. Together, these effects result in dilution of the sodium and the restoration of balance.

Q: Is Nuun Carbonated?
A: A burping athlete is not a good thing, so no, Nuun is not carbonated. When first dropped into water Nuun fizzes to dissolve, but once it's finished dissolving it will very quickly become still.

Q: Can I Eat Nuun?
A: Nuun was designed to be mixed with water, but heard of some people eating it anyways. Whether as an experiment or to get your electrolytes in a hurry, it isn't the most pleasant experience, but it won't hurt you.
