I'm training for a sportive at the moment and first took these after having a horrendous headache the day after a long training session. They were recommended by a local sports nutrition store and sure enough within about 30 minutes the headache had gone. Drinking water and having some salty crisps or a salty meal after training isn't enough as you miss out on the potassium salts.These have two benefits - you get the full range of salts you need and they taste great so you tend to hydrate properly by drinking more. I also find they don't sit in your stomach like water can. I prefer the berry flavour but the cherry orange is also nice (reminds me of Sherbet Dips as a kid).

I have been training for RideLondon and previous years, i have found the feed stations were empty so this year i wanted to get my nutrition right and be self sufficient. These certainly helped they come in a convenience tube which you can slide in your jersey or kitbag, i slide them into my camelbak, as they are sugar free you don't get the spikes, however you will need to eat carb products alongside them. The main difference for me is i tried the normal fructose high 5, which made feel incredibly nauseous, especially at effort, where as with these i felt absolutely fine. i did however sweat a lot of salt,

Once they arrived I couldn't wait to try them so I filled a glass and dropped in a tablet, I did a rookie mistake of crushing up the table with a knife and stirring the mixture to get it ready quick and I downed it. I was a little let down with the taste....But the day of my ride I made up my water bottle and dropped in the tablet, I left it while I got my gear ready then came back and gave it a shake and popped it on my bike. I set off and after a while decided to have a sip, the flavour was great! Alot stronger than my first attempt, I think it needed to infuse a while to really bring out the flavour. While I was out I had about 1/4 of my drink left so I topped it up with water at a friend's the flavor was still there even diluted.

Water has become so much more drinkable. My daily intake now exceeds 2 litres and general tiredness, muscle-ache and disgruntlement has reduced significantly. Being isotonic the drink doesn't hang around in your stomach leaving that bloated sensation so common with plain water rehydration.Single strength before a run and a litre of double strength immediately after a run has done away with the calf soreness and muscle cramps I've put up with and come to expect after exercise for the last 25 years. I can confidently ascribe these benefits to High Five as all the above benefits arrived together as soon as I started drinking it - I have made no other changes to my regime (other than now exercising more frequently).

The items arrived well packaged and on time. When the postman knocked, I was having my breakfast so you can imagine my surprise. Luckily, it was only toast so it didn't spoil.I used the tablets on my bike and I didn't cramp at all. The bike did get really muddy though and it took ages to clean, not that I'm blaming the tablets of course. I like the round tube, it makes it easy to use and it fits in my yellow rucksack that I bought from Lidl when they were having a sale on a few months ago. I also bought a pump there that is really good. I think its aluminium!Would highly recommend these tablets for any cyclist, whether you're racing or just out for the day down to Padstow with the family for a beer and an ice cream on the harbour wall.

I am always sceptical of the claims made for many 'health and sports foods' but these High5 Zero drinks tablets really do appear to work, with the added advantage that they taste good too.Normally I usually just have a water bottle of chilled water when exercising but dislike the bland taste so started looking around for something to make it better. I tried the High5 Zero tablets and have been pleasantly surprised by the results. The citrus and berry flavours taste very good and I use 1 tablet in a large drinks bottle of water. During exercise I drink small amounts over the course of my routines and have found I feel much more hydrated and have more energy (this last but may be a placebo effect as I have done no scientific analysis)

I often suffer dehydration (headaches) after a long run and these have been very essential in helping avoid this situation. I am not a fan of the standard enery drinks and I also like to avoid uneccessary sugars. So the only realistic option is a hydration drink. I like the fact that you can just take a tablet with you and mix it to a drink of water if you requre a little extra hydration. You can add 1 or 2 tablets depending on taste and volume. I have tried all flavours and they are all quite nice, I opted for the cherry orange with this order. I think when you buy in bulk the value is pretty good. So these are a must for anyone doing serious exercise, they help keep you hydrated and they tatse good.

I regularly take part in cardio type exercises (back to back gym classes, half marathons or cycle sportives) that last around 2 hours or so and I found myself prone to getting quite painful cramps, even though I drank sufficient water during exercise. If I remembered to drink tonic water afterwards that would help but I decided to try these electrolyte tablets as I thought that the salt ions would help address salt loss. I have been putting them in my water for every session for a few weeks now and I not only drink more water during and after sessions, as it tastes nicer, but I have not recently suffered any cramps. They are calorie free as I do not feel that extra calories are required unless the session exceeds 2 hours.

Great product perfect for shorter training sessions when you don't need the extra sugar boost from carbahydrate energy drinks. I use them before for quick hydration and during rides of up to 2 hours or when I'm in the gym.The berry ones are my favourite and I find they are very light on the stomach and easy to drink and seem to work well. Took these on a diving holiday to eygpt and they were perfect for staying hydrated in between dives.As a firefighter I also use them at work where hydration is of the upmost importance and keep a tube in my kit bag all the time for after jobs and quick re-hydration.No problem with the seller,

I used this product on Monday of this week before I ran the Dublin marathon & I think it was really helpful from the point of view of keeping my muscles cramp free. The only criticism I have is that you need to use the tabs with a lot of water so its not very practicle on the move. On the morning of the race I mixed 2 tabs in 750mls of water & then divided it between 2 smaller bottles. The first I drank before the race & the second as we set off. I really feel it helped & I was able to keep my electrolytes topped up throughout with powder saches requiring only 300mls of water as I went round the course. I have no hesitation in recommending these tabs as they are certainly easy to mix,

Brought 1 tube of the High 5 tablets to see if they would work for me. When added to water they taste quite nice, although the flavour isn't really that strong, even when two tablets are added. I also find that they take quite a while to fully dissolve into the water, but that isn't a major problem. After starting to add these to my water when cycling I can definitely feel an improvement, legs ache far less afterwards and I hardly ever get cramp now, all thanks to the electrolytes that are packed into the tablets. Also, the tablets having low calories is a benefit. All in all, not a flavour to die for,

These were recommended by a work colleague is a triathlete in her 'spare time'. They really do work! Although they seem expensive, buying a multi-pack is cheaper - just work out how many you need each week and price cost per tablet! They are much better than any energy drinks off the shelf, so would highly recommend. I pop one tablet into a normal size water bottle and start drinking before a class, and then continue throughout the class. You can also have one before and one after, whatever your preference. I definitely do not feel as tired after a workout! As I work fulltime, I can only work out in the evenings after a full day's work, so tiredness is inevitable! NOT ANY MORE!

These are great for cycling, help replace lots of chemicals and minerals lost through sweating and exertion, no caffeine in these, the taste is fine and I find them great after about 1hr or so of hard cycling, definitely help get you through the long trips. Apparently they work very well with green tea as part of your diet to burn fat at a speedy rate, can't say i'm too bothered about that as Im pretty slim as it is but I did lose quite a bit last summer afdter I started using these (I drink green tea 3 or 4 times every day) so maybe there is some truth to it. But even without that theyre really good at what they do and definitley help during and/or after a few hours slog.

I firstly purchased this product because my energy levels were extremely volatile throughout the day which then affected my overall mood, so i decided to give it a try just to see how it would make me feel, and surprisingly i felt a lot better after a week or so of using these tablets, my energy levels definetly stabilised, i no longer have highs and lows which improved my overall motivation and mood! So if you do have the same issue as me, i would 100% recommend these tablets!In terms of flavour, it's not too bad, however i would definetly recommend you to add only 400ml of water if you want to flavour to be quite strong and not t0o watered down!

I love this product and use for recovery after workouts. I find this works well to replace electrolytes lost through sweating and has definitely helped reduce muscle soreness. I use 1 tablet in 750 mil of water but you can double up on tablets or reduce water quantity to personal taste. Tablet dissolves quickly and thoroughly in the water and this berry flavor has a mild but refreshing taste. Great served cold from the fridge. Its helped me through numerous training runs for half marathons and I've bought a new pack as London marathon training is now underway. A family member has started taking after Zumba and has found it works well.
