I am working out hard these days, and was ending up with horrible leg cramps at night. I needed electrolytes! At fist I was buying bottles of Propel. It solved the problem when drinking 1 to 2 bottles a day. However, I was horrified with how many bottles I used. These little packets solved both problems. No night leg cramps, and no plastic bottles. Win, win.
These work well to supplement my electrolytes. I run, and after doing some pretty long runs, I’ve noticed my leg muscles will involuntarily twitch after a long run, and when I take electrolytes my muscle do not twitch, so I take electrolytes after I go for a run.
These seem to work fine, I have used them after long runs and not seen any muscle twitching. The flavor is a lot sweeter than some other electrolyte powders I have used, these have sucralose added to sweeten the flavor. I don’t really care for the sucralose or the sweetness, but the electrolytes are working for me so it’s fine.
I noticed the packaging says “No sugar” and at least for the “berry flavor”, the ingredients has sugar listed as the 7th ingredient, with Total Sugars listed as 0 g on the nutrition facts… so I’m guessing there is some sugar in this but not enough to “have to” list it on the nutrition facts. I almost always take this as recovery after a run, so I’m not concerned about added sugars, but I thought I’d point this out in case people are trying to maintain ketosis and supplementing their electrolytes.
Overall, this is probably not my favorite electrolyte powder based on the flavor, but the price for 50 packets of electrolyte mix is a great value, and it’s preventing my electrolyte imbalance muscle spasms, so I’m very happy with this product and I would recommend it to people who need some electrolytes.
These packets are definitely much cheaper, have fewer calories and less packaging and waste than bottles of Propel fitness water or Gatorade type drinks that also help supplement electrolytes lost during exercise.
I'm a runner, so I purchased these packets to help replenish and hydrate after a run. I absolutely love these! I'm not a fan of sports drinks at all (or anything with a "weird" taste) but these weren't anything like that! They don't have an after taste whatsoever and the flavors were great! I got 5 boxes in total - 2 grape, 1 raspberry lemonade, 1 kiwi strawberry, 1 berry. My favorites were grape, raspberry lemonade and berry! The kiwi strawberry weren't that great to me, but I still used them. It was a plus that they had zero sugar and calories! Super happy about these and will be purchasing more soon!
This is not a heavy mix, and when added to water you can hardly see a change in the color of the water. It has a very pleasant taste and the cost was more reasonable than others I have bought. This summer will be the test when the hot weather comes in as to whether it works or not, but I have enjoyed adding this to my soda stream water this winter.
Good alternative to buying the bottles, especially if the supply is inconsistant in the area's stores.I would gove it a higher rating if could get a few other flavors such as the Black Cherry.

Propel Powder Packets are an easy and delicious way to hydrate your active lifestyle. Simply pour one powder packet into 16.9 ounces of water and shake.

There’s more to sweat than just water, which is why Propel Water is a water with more. This is how Gatorade does water.
I take these packs when backpacking in the mountains to offer something different than just filtered water. Love the sodium and electrolytes in propel. Really helps restore all the sweat and energy depletion after hiking for hours and hours.
I love that I found these on Amazon. Previously, I've only been able to get this flavor by driving a half hour to my nearest Walmart and buying everything on the shelf. The pricepoint here is better and I don't have to go anywhere.
This is our favorite flavor of beverage mixes in general. The flavor is full and no delicious, fruity but not overwhelming. And my partner likes to use them because they're one of the only brands whose flavor packets are clear and therefore okay for him to use at work.
love it, great for the KETO diet.
I like these don’t use artificial colors. This is my favorite water additive. I’d rather use these than buying plastic bottles. The cost of these packets is quite a bit less than bottles. I will continue to buy more soon.
I bought these Propel drink mixes for traveling and they are a great idea! They take almost NO room at all and I simple pour one in a 16.9 oz bottle and shake it up. It has no sugar and will serve me well to wet my whistle while I drive. I had purchased another brand of BOTTLED drink but it had so much sugar that I had to reconsider and settled on the Propel drink mixes!
