Power Pak Electrolyte Supplement

As promised, I'm now giving you the low-down on the final product I've been using from Trace Minerals. To update you, I've posted about their ConcenTrace (trace mineral drops) and their Greens Pak. This one is samples of their Power Pak, which also contains their 100 mg of ConcenTrace formula! ConcenTrace has its own health benefits, but it also helps the vitamins in Power Pak to be absorbed by the body.

Power Pak  is a travel-friendly powder supplement that easily dissolves in water. Vitamin C is tha major ingredient in this Power Pak supplement, but there are others that carry with them wonderful benefits as well -- all of which I'll discuss.

Here you can see the actual supplement/powder in Power Pak. It's a fine, yellow colored powder. 

 

If you've ever  used the stuff called Emergen-C, then you'll be somewhat familiar with the Power Pak, although there is definitely some differences, which I'll explain in a moment.

Power Pak has very similar ingredients to Emergen-C, but I actually had a few packets of the Emergen-C and decided to compare the two. The results were that they were a few ingredients different, and most importantly, Power Pak contained a little more of most the ingredients than the Emergen-C. And something that's also nice, Power Pak tastes much, much, much better! I can't stand the taste of Emergen-C, and I've used every flavor they've put out. The only one I was ever able to tolerate was their "citrus" flavor, and that's only because I could mix it with black cherry Mio water flavorer and tolerate it. 

Power Pak has a citrusy, sweet flavor and it's vegan.

Power Pak is pretty tasty! I enjoy the taste and don't have to mix it to mask the flavor. It's possible to do that, though. Orange juice, water flavors, other beverages will work.

The photo above is one I took to show you guys how it fizzes! How neat, huh? It was actually an accident. I tried dumping Power Pak into the tiny hole in my cup and there was some water on top -- well, you see what happened. The powder went on the top and once it mixed with those water drops, it fizzed like alka-seltzer. I can promise you it tastes nothing as badly as that alka-seltzer, though. 

What Power Pak does:

Power Pak was designed for replacing electrolyte loss as well as providing the body with important nutrients and trace minerals. It's great for sluggish, low-energy days. The electrolytes help balance and optimize energy levels. Power Pak doesn't use caffeine, artificial stimulants, gluten or artificial flavors. Each pack has only 20 calories. It also contains only 3 grams sugars and 3 grams of total carbohydrates.

Since an electrolyte deficiency or imbalance can cause fatigue, Power Pak may help people who are deficient to regain some of their energy. The ConcenTrace (trace minerals) are also a huge help in energy levels and also benefit the mind -- clearing foggy headedness.
