Water Additives

[Dustin07]

I really like the Modern BCAA+ because it tastes good and gets me to drink more water. I mix it with pine pollen in the morning in a 24oz bottle, and use that to slam an arginine and tribulus.

I'm almost out though and need to figure out what next. does anyone have any water additive type supps they like? It just gets me to drink more water....

I have been doing that for the last couple of months with SNS Energized Amino's .. different new flavors and can be found for $18.99 for 30 servings.

Also like kaged muscle hydra charge as well.

Eaas or Kool aid liquid. Mio is good too.

Ketolytes @DieselNY can help you out with this one from Ketogenics
Very solid electrolyte profile. If you just want something cheap grab the MIO things from the grocery store.
There is really no need to slam BCAA/EAA all day as you never allow protein levels to reach their refractory stages before being spiked again. It is actually counter-productive to MPS (Muscle Protein Synthesis)

Keto Lytes HP: Keto Electrolyte Powder & Keto Flu Support

Keto Lytes HP Is an advanced hydration supplement for replenishing electrolytes while following a keto or low carb diet. The zero carb and sugar free formula of Keto Lytes HP is scientifically formulated to rehydrate your body quickly and deliver energy fast while helping you stick to your keto...

Thanks for the tag. If you add anything to your water it really should be some sort of hydration product AND taste amazing. The Keto Lytes HP was formulated with unreal amounts of "stuff" you won't find anywhere. Youd need like 30 gatorades to get 2000mg of sodium found in Keto Lytes HP. Many of my MMA friends and clients drink it all the time and love it.

I am keto and fast and sometimes go 2-3 days with no food and my workouts are outstanding as long as I am taking my Keto Lytes HP daily and pre workout. as a 25+ yr keto vet, my avg sodium intake is 8,000mg a day and more when longer fasts........Grape Bubblegum, Blue Razz and Raspberry Banana are top sellers.

I have a 64oz bottle and I add 2 scoops to ice cold water...,my kids LOVE this stuff but I only let them have some here and there but my kids play tons of sports and helps them a lot during practice and games especially in the heat. Most of the parents buy it from me for their kids too (Football team)

Its also sold under another name - ***********. Only because some people can't stand the keto craze so I made one for the rest of the normal people (lol)... Its a cool ass label and same exact profile a Keto Lytes HP. ***********.com

Many of my good friends, non keto meatheads LOVE It and take 1-2 scoops pre workout for an INSANE pump and non stop action in the gym.

1 scoop to 32oz very cold water is the perfect mix, remember 2000mg sodium = 5,000mg of table salt and the potassium is in there too.

right on, thanks guys!
I typically take my BCAA's either in the morning/during after breakfast, or around lunch time when I'm also running a caloric deficit. When I refill my water I either go to something more simple (like mio as mentioned) or just drink water itself. But having something to add in does help me get more water in my system.

No need to take the BCAA's if you are meeting protein intake in the 24 hour period.
Again just drinking or sipping on them constantly elevates MPS (Muscle Protein Synthesis), not allowing protein levels to reach their refractory stages.

This will inform you a bit more in regards to that.

If you do take BCAA's it would be best between meals spaced 4-6 hours apart as a bolus
or with a meal that lacks adequate leucine to trigger MPS to its full potential.

There are also calories in BCAA and EAA, not sure if you give a **** about that or not but they are there.

Another +1 for Ketolytes... awesome for hydration and electrolytes.

 

[jrock645]

I dont use that particular product, may have to try it, but i also do the electrolytes. Stuff i use comes in a dissolvable tablet and i just drop one in my water bottle for during my workout.

 

[Dustin07]

awesome feedback thank you guys

 

[The Solution]

Highly suggest grape, blue raz, and the Sweet & Tart flavors
Super good

I like to use the following to flavor water:
-a drop of raw apple cider vinegar
-Nuvital super spinach powder drink
-and you can't go wrong with sugar free crystal lite

 

[Darkhorse192]

Bolero is badass, but I am not sure of their availability in the USA. They are similar to crystal light packets but the flavors are really great, and they mix well in carbonated water to make a diet soda type of alternative.

I know a lot of people who use the sugar free crystal lite. I’ve never been a hug fan of it but it seems to be a popular choice.

I've been adding traac minerals and sea salt. I would echo what @The Solution says about adding in eaa or bcaa frequently. You don't want mtor always turned on. Need to go through autophagy too
