This product contains a relatively high amount of added sugar, designed for those actively burning energy through moderate to intense exercise.

Based on my experience, I'd say that if you suffer from cramps then this Zero drink will definitely help fight them off during long rides (or even short rides). The actual amount you need to drink will be a case of trial and error, and as with any energy product you should test it during training first before using it for real in a race or sportive. Many drinks contain electrolytes in varying amounts. This includes natural liquids, such as coconut water, fruit juices, and milk, as well as prepared drinks like sports drinks. However, some of these drinks, such as coconut water, are low in sodium and may therefore not be appropriate for replacing electrolytes after strenuous and prolonged exercise.Y. Chu, Y. Shen, F. Guo, X. Zhao, Q. Dong, Q. Zhang, W. Li, H. Chen, Z. Luo and L. Chen, Electrochem. Energy Rev., 2020, 3, 187–219 CrossRef. Electrolyte drinks are generally well tolerated. However, if you consume many electrolyte drinks daily, they can lead to an electrolyte excess. High sodium intakes over time can increase your risk of developing high blood pressure and heart disease. Keep in mind that the The American Heart Association recommends no more 2,300 milligrams of sodium per day for the average person. However, that recommendation is outside of the context of fluid losses from high heat, illness, or exercise.

Like this product a lot. On long rides I go out with two bottles, one with an energy/electrolyte drink like SIS GO, but there are times when your body just doesnt seem to want any more sweet energy stuff. This works as a very thirst quenching (and effective electrolyte replacement) alternative. The caffeine-enhanced one tastes pretty foul though. Berri Fit Organic Electrolyte Beverage is a good choice for active individuals looking to replenish energy stores and some electrolytes. Think of this as a lighter, less artificial, lower sugar version of traditional sports drinks or highly concentrated fruit juice drinks.

It contains sucralose, an artificial sweetener. While safe to consume, research is mixed on the potential long-term side effects of artificial sweeteners. Some studies show that when consumed in excess, artificial sweeteners may lead to increased sugar cravings, and could potentially have negative effects on the gut microbiome.

Fig. 15 (a–c) Cycling performance of Si nanoflake powder half-cells containing various electrolytes at varying temperatures. The base electrolyte was 1 M LiPF 6 in EC/DEC 1 : 1 v/v, with 10 wt% “additive” compounds as indicated. FEC appears to offer the best trade-off between high-temperature stability and low-temperature discharge capacity. (d and e) 10th cycle charge and discharge curves for the above cells at different temperatures. While VC-added electrolyte produces the best capacity (by a small amount) at 25 °C and 60 °C, it creates extreme polarization in the cell at −5 °C. Both FEC and VC additives appear to increase cell resistance at sub-zero conditions relative to the base electrolyte. Reprinted from ref. 93 with permission from Elsevier. E. J. McShane, A. M.

Most contain water, sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium, in varying amounts. Some contain additional ingredients including vitamins, such as the B vitamins, vitamin C, zinc, or added flavorings. If you are sensitive to caffeine, be aware that some electrolyte drinks also contain caffeine. So clearly, electrolytes are a BIG deal. Thankfully, your body can maintain its supply of electrolytes through what you eat and drink, says Patton.

(Admittedly, the electrolytes in Zero might help you ride a bit further, but only by keeping the cramp at bay).
