Vitalyte Electrolyte Powder Drink Mix, Isotonic Electrolyte Hydration Mix, Gluten Free Post Workout Powder Mix, Pack of 1, 35 oz., Grape Flavor

My favorite electrolyte filled with all the stuff you need and none of the stuff you don't. It is flavorful and light. I've been using for a hydration station for our group runs and others also like it.

I have used this product for many (many) years. It's outstanding. There are a variety of flavors from very mild to strong. So there are plenty of options based on your personal preference and tolerance for flavoring when working hard. It's not super sweet and I find it improves the palatability of water even when it's warm... I struggle to stay hydrated in warm weather by drinking warm water. That said, time will tell if the new packaging is an improvement. I struggled with the tubs because they really were not very air-tight and even with desiccant packs the mixture would cake up and become difficult to scoop. I have high hopes for the bags as I thought the zip-lock seal should be pretty air tight. Plus I can burp the excess air from the packaging after each use. That said, I got my first order the other day with the new packaging. The seal isn't very good. I can squeeze air out of the package with little effort after it's closed. However, the air doesn't seem to get back in. So time will tell. If I don't experience the same caking issue with the product I will update the review to 5 stars. By the way, some may argue that the new packaging is cheaper than the tubs. However, I think it's a potential upgrade in overall quality. Also, note that the customary measuring scoop is still included in the package. If this was done to cheapen the product and increase margins I suspect the scoop would be gone too. Updating after using the new packaging for a long time now. Zip top is hard to close but I have had zero issues and it is an awesome product always. So I am raising my review.

Ordered this stuff to help with hydration after bicycling in the heat. Works great for that, as well as for during work when it is in 100s. I have more energy at the end of the day after drinking this periodically through the day. I mix up about 30 ounces according to the directions. I drink a about 10 ounces in the morning, then 10 around lunch, and the last 10 at afternoon break. I can hop on my bicycle when I get home and pedal a dozen miles without feeling drained. Taste wise, it takes a bit of getting used to. If you are expecting Gatorade sweet, you won't get that. I find it perfectly balanced between taste and lack of it. When I cycle, I typically don't want something really sweet tasting. This is a perfect compromise and in fact, has a slightly salty taste to it. Yeah, there's grape there but not a huge amount of it. I like it though on my next order from Vitalyte, I think I'll try another flavor just so I can try them all and find the one that I like best.

The mix tastes OK - it is for replenishment and works. The package size and the price works for me.

Adding more to review on May 2021: this has been my only choice as other brands give me tummy cramps. I’ve ordered it several times now. Can’t do without it. Only flavor I like is Orange. I am reviewing after 2nd time order. I used the 1st order that had lumps in it and when i got the 2nd order, I saw that the electrolyte powder should be as coarse as table salt. If you guys find lump like structures in it, please ask for refund or return it. I found that after seeing the 2nd order. I wasn't aware of the lumps until I saw the 2nd time order which was so coarse like table salt. I am still leaving a 5 star. Reordered many times: 9/3/2019 - There’s been a change of packing I believe. Previously it came in shiny finish bag. This order came with matte finish bag. Still a 5 star rating for one sold by Vitalyte. Beware of 3rd party sellers. I made a switch to orange flavor 2nd order onwards. May 2021: This has been my best used electrolyte powder.

I've been using vitalyte for a few years now. This is my least favorite flavor. The lemon and citrus are still tops for me. I've tried the watermelon, fruit punch and orange in addition to the grape.

I love that there are no artificial sugars. Stevia is artificial and I have no idea how they convinced everyone they are natural. What a marketing campaign! I have the grape flavor. It basically tastes like a watered down gatorade. Perfect for me. I get the electrolytes I need, no artificial sugar and it’s not overly sweet. It’s very refreshing. I also bought a pack of the individual servings for on-the-go. I’m really happy I found this brand!

I have been buying this product for years! The product was called Gookingaid and transitioned to this new name… This was my go to drink for over 25+ years… I lived in San Diego, was local to the market and a great alternative to other commercial brands. Seen the brand progress, adding different flavors, packaging, from a nice container to the current bags.. we have been on auto-ship orders for years and the time has come to say goodbye….. REASONS! The changing of the packaging didn’t matter that much.. understand the need to be competitive, so understood…. then the new bag started to increase in price… understood.. but at the same time started reducing product content while maintaining same price…. I know, because I still up to this day have the original canisters that were really nice and would dump the new bag in the canister… and the product was less, while charging the same… became a bit of disappointment in a brand that I trusted, my alternative health care provider in Encinitas had recommended, was a family business and was a great product while supporting that business…. fast forward to 2026… besides the disingenuous short cut/product amount the actual product has changed!! It does not dilute as it used to and a mound of sugar like substance settles at the bottom of the cup… extremely disappointing. We have since found newer more innovative products, without naming brands that are Element intensive and better alternatives, but had always kept this coming since our kids love the flavor and a great alternative to other types of drinks… but this innovation has caused us to Stop the subscription and move on….. very disappointed on the Gooking innovators!!!
