TRIORAL Electrolyte Powder Oral Rehydration Salts, 100 Drink Packets

Bottom line: cheaper than competitors, highly effective rehydration, tastes ok at room temp, decent cold, gross hot I am in military flight school and we are flying in the afternoons in the middle of summer in the Deep South. Daily temps are around 100, with high humidity. My flight suit is drenched in sweat before I even make it to the aircraft, then we have to climb around during preflight before spending several hours in a dark green metal box with no AC. My first day I drank a half gallon of water, didn't pee, and had a severe dehydration headache. The second day I used a packet of my wife's Liquid Iv. It helped, but I still had a headache (plus those are expensive). I did some research and I found this product on some Reddit posts about the medical condition known as POTS, it seems to be highly effective in helping their symptoms. At half the price per packet as liquid IV, I ordered 100. My technique is to drink about a half a packet before I leave for the day, drink a big bottle of regular water while we are doing our briefing, refill that, then during preflight I will drink from a cooled blender bottle with the other half of my packet. I will use up my other water bottle during the rest of the flight. I've felt great every day and have not had any symptoms of dehydration despite sweating for about five hours straight every day. This is absolutely a stronger rehydration packet than Liquid Iv. Of course... yes.. it does not taste sweet like other products, it really is just salts. If it's cold, it's not bad at all. At home i keep a pitcher of sweet tea on hand and I have found even just a big splash of it on top of my salty water mix will make it quite palatable. However, if you're in a situation like mine, I would recommend drinking it before it gets warm. If I wait to drink my blender bottle of Trioral and it gets hot in the aircraft, it's kinda like drinking sweat.

These electrolyte packets are the cheapest and best option for people who need multiple grams of extra salt per day to manage their chronic illnesses. They have been a game changer in allowing me to be more active without passing out. Compared to other electrolyte options, they also taste better, and use only a small amount of real sugar, no artificial (or natural substitute) sweeteners. The packets are very easy to use as well - one liter water bottles work perfectly, and it dissolves quickly.

Really great to keep your electrolytes balanced when doing intensive work. Tastes like salty water, but personally I don't really care about taste as long as its effective. The mild taste is a great reminder that you shouldn't be drinking electrolytes drinks casually, but only when necessary during hard physical labor

These electrolyte packets are easy to use and have been very helpful for staying hydrated. They dissolve quickly, taste good, and are convenient to keep at home or take on the go. I am very satisfied with this purchase and would recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable hydration solution.

I live where it is quite hot for much of the year and due to medical issues, It’s really important that I stay hydrated. Have really been looking for an electrolyte mix that is truly flavorless that I could have either alone or mix with different kinds of fruit juice. This has been the first electrolyte mix that I found that reliably meets this criteria. Also, really love that the only things that are in it are things that you need nothing you don’t to quickly hydrate. A true life saver in the summertime. I bought this package to try it out and like it so much I have since ordered the large bulk pack of these so that I always have some on hand. Great for when you are out and about and for travel. The only thing I really wish could be changed with this product is that because of how you have to rip it open, it can sometimes be quite difficult to do without a pair of scissors, and so it would be nice if they can find a way to make this easier to open for those that may not have a lot of finger dexterity and/or hand strength. Even with this issue II think this product is definitely worth it , especially compared to a lot of other electrolyte products I have tried over the last few years. Also works well for rehydrating if you have nausea and vomiting and are sensitive to smells and taste because of these issues. I think it is a better buy pricewise per packet to buy the bulk pack because ultimately it’s cheaper. However, for this pack of 10 to just try them is a good idea to assess if it’s something that you like and works for you.

This is my favorite way to stay hydrated as a person with POTS who struggles to retain hydration without a ridiculously high sodium content. I like to enhance it by combining flavor additives like gatorade or propel powders, or squeezable drink flavors. This has been so much more affordable for me, as I really couldn’t afford liquid IV or LMNT anymore, and nothing else is really as high in sodium with good flavor options. Now my body feels better and I’m hydrated and it doesn’t cost me an arm and a leg!!! The packaging is convenient, i use the markings on the bag to divide up smaller portions for my 16oz water bottle instead of making 1L at a time. It dissolves right away leaving no gross clumps, it doesn’t create a lot of “dust” while pouring the packet like other drink powders can and the ingredients are great. This feels better for my teeth and my body than any other electrolytes i’ve tried. The flavor on it’s own isn’t bad, but might not be tolerable for a lot of people. It is, however, very easy to add whatever flavoring you want (maybe you want to add vitamins, or maybe you want it sweet, fruity, or combined with a little juice!). 10000/10. If you’ve had it before and didn’t like it, I’d recommend experimenting with your preferred flavor additives before sleeping on this product!!! It’s saved me so much money!!! I bought a 15 count to try which lasted a good amount of time, and before i even finished it i bought a 100 count. Stay hydrated!

Not usually one to write a review but i think this deserves an exception. Simply put, I've tried everything, this is the real deal, nothing compares. Tastes good cold (tastes bad hot but who tf would do that??), cheap to buy in bulk, dependable, no artificial sweeteners, it just works. Wish i could buy this stuff by the pallet.

It is a very good product.
