Non fizzy minerals/vitamin tablets for your bottle

[hdp_gmx]

HI Guys,

 

Hope somebody can help me; a few weeks ago (before the 94.7) there was a stand by the rhinopark circle in the cradle with people promoting their new non fizzy tablets that you drop in your bottle for use while riding, the three options were:

1. Ginseng
    
   
2. Vitamins
    
   
3. Minerals
   

I cant remember the complete name of the product, but sort of remember the colors and graphics on the tubes, i have been to many pharmacies but did not managed to find them. I am basically looking for a non-fizzy mineral/electrolyte tablet that i can throw in my bottle and ride with for rides under 2 hours. There are way too many carbs in the sports drinks out there that contain electrolytes for everyday use in rides under 2 hours IMHO.

 

If you dont know the name of the product but can recommend something that would fit what i am looking for i would appreciate it.

 

Cheers

I use Hammer electrolite tabs.

 

I pop them in and let them settle down (about 2 mins) before closing the bottle and it goes completely flat.

 

Nice taste too.

Zym tablets?

 

I remember getting one of these in a goodie bag a while back - tasted ok.

Not Zym or Hammer, but thanks for the feedback guys, will put those on my list.

The hammer, is it this one:

Then you just open up a few capsules and drop the power in your bottle?

Try Nuun as an Electrolyte drink for short rides, until you have found the one you are looking for.

Cool thanks will give them all a shot, this should all be available at Dischem?

Or you can order it directly from etienne@kttape.co.za . He is the distributor and if you mention that you heard about Nuun from Table Mountain Bikers, you get it for R59/tube instead of R89. Keep it a secret.

There is something called Zero i think as well... I think ASG brings it in.

 

EDIT. High 5 Zero electrolyte tablets.

Pluuuuuusssszz?

Got the Ginseng and Vit one.

Our Pharmacy in Rooihuiskraal stocks it. If you want we could arrange something, but they dont make a real difference. I stopped using them. If you want I'll give you what is left (more than half) to try out first

plusssz, I saw it in checkers today.
