GainfulHydration + Caffeine Powder Packets with Key Electrolytes Magnesium & Sodium + L Theanine, Low Sugar Drink Mix, Tropical Mango, 21 Sticks

Super clean ingredients. Only hydration/caffeine supplement I could find that is IBS friendly with an evidence-based ingredient profile.

This product really gives me the energy needed for my pre-workouts.

A great pre-workout drink. Great taste, great hydration, and a nice energy boost without the jitters you may get with caffeine.Mixes well with water. I like it COLD.

This Gainful powder delivers better nutrients than mere sugar and salt. One serving has only 2 grams of sugar and contains magnesium instead of just sodium chloride. The point is that it makes you feel better without crashing or making you thirsty, and without causing weight gain. At least that is what we have experienced. And for us, it is well worth the price to enjoy the increase in hydration, energy, and endurance.

I’ve previously tried several packaged electrolyte powders before. Some were not meant to accommodate a 16oz water bottle, some were WAY too salty, some had odd flavors. But these are the “Goldilocks” of the powders as it’s not salty for my taste and has good flavoring. I just wish they had a bigger variety pack so I don’t have to order as often.

I’m 65, often not drinking enough water, it’s a wonderful hydration product. My daughter is very health conscious and recommended it to me.

I was really hoping to find a solid hydration solution with these Gainful Hydration Powder Packets, especially with the promise of key electrolytes like magnesium and sodium, plus the added energy support and low sugar content. The convenience of the individual stick packs was a major plus, perfect for tossing in a gym bag or purse. And the caffeine-free aspect was definitely appealing for those times I need hydration without the jitters.However, the major drawback for me was the flavor. The Lemon Lime, while a seemingly safe bet, just didn't hit the mark. It tasted artificial and somewhat medicinal, leaving an unpleasant aftertaste. I found myself struggling to finish a glass, which defeats the purpose of a hydration drink designed to encourage consistent consumption. For me, the flavor made it hard to look forward to drinking it, and ultimately made the experience less enjoyable.Positives:Electrolyte Support: The inclusion of magnesium and sodium is great for replenishing lost minerals during exercise or daily activities.Energy Support: While I can't speak to a significant energy boost, the ingredients are generally beneficial for sustained hydration and energy balance.Low Sugar: A lower sugar content is a definite win for those watching their intake.Convenient Packaging: The individual stick packets are easy to use and travel-friendly.Caffeine-Free: Great for avoiding caffeine-related side effects.Negatives:Unpleasant Flavor: The Lemon Lime flavor was, unfortunately, a significant turnoff for me.Aftertaste: The artificial taste lingered, making it hard to enjoy the drink.Overall:While I appreciate the intended benefits of Gainful Hydration Powder Packets, the poor taste experience was a major obstacle. If you are not particularly sensitive to artificial flavors, the product might still work for you, given its positives. However, for me, the flavor is a dealbreaker. I won't be repurchasing this particular flavor and would be hesitant to try others without reading reviews that explicitly speak to the taste. I would recommend trying a single packet first, if possible, before committing to a full box. I'm still on the hunt for a tasty and effective hydration solution, and unfortunately, this one didn't quite make the cut.

Genuinely my favorite electrolytes. No weird artificial taste
