Nuun
What is nuun? In real words? Imagine being out on a long run or ride, or being in the gym. rather than settle for water or buy a sugary drink from a convenience store, you just fill up your water bottle and drop in a couple of nuun tabs. by the time you’ve tied your laces or put on your pack, you’ve got a complex electrolyte drink that recharges your salts, but is refreshing and more efficiently absorbed than water alone or most sports drinks on the market.
Said Simply
nuun was designed, formulated and tested to keep you optimally hydrated, wherever you are.
nuun is:
portable
nuun comes in a tough tube that is water resistant and perfect for carrying in your hand, bike jersey, pack…wherever. 1 tube = 6 litres (~1.5 gallons) – enough for a good ride or a week at the gym. and if you travel, forget trying to find your normal drink or suffering the indignity of bags of powder bursting in your luggage, a couple of tubes in your bags will get there in one piece and get you through the week of training in colorado or the pyrenees.
balanced
we spent years researching the levels of electrolytes needed for the product to be absorbed the quickest and to provide optimal salt balance to prevent cramping and maximise hydration. an editor of a major triathlon publication used nuun and had “no cramping issues for the first time ever in an ironman”.
refreshing
designed for the active palate, nuun’s got a light flavour that’s not overwhelming when you’re on the go. if you’ve ever watered down sports drinks because they’re too strong, then you’ve made them less easy to absorb; this ultimately defeats the purpose of using them. some call the nuun taste ‘tart’ and that’s probably the best description we’ve found yet, other than ‘just right’!
what's in nuun?
four essential electrolytes: sodium, potassium, magnesium & calcium
a nice, refreshing flavour to remind you to keep drinking
a bit of fizzy stuff to ensure it dissolves quickly without having to mix or shake
what's not in nuun?
no sugar. we didn’t want to upset your gut or overwhelm your taste buds, & wanted to give you more control over your calorie intake.
no scary things (like crazy doses of caffeine) so you can happily drink nuun morning, day & night.
no artificial colours – do you need neon green to hydrate? need we say more…?
why no carbs?
the one-size-fits-all mentality doesn’t work in our active lives. we simply want to keep you hydrated… allowing you to focus on your gels, bars, bananas or cookies. & anyway, would you pick a sticky drink over a brownie if you had your choice?
