SOS ingredients have been specifically balanced and formulated for rehydration. We use no artificial sweeteners, colors, flavors or preservatives.
For more information on our ingredients and what they do, please visit the ‘The Science’ section of our website.
SOS uses the World Health Organization´s Oral Rehydration Therapy recommendations and data from the American College of Sports Medicine. By correctly balancing the amount of sodium and glucose, SOS enhances the water absorption process by activating the body’s natural mechanism know as the Sodium/Glucose co-transport system, which is located in the small bowel. When SOS arrives to the small intestine, one molecule of sodium is quickly pulled into the blood vessels by one molecule of glucose; subsequently, due to osmotic forces, water gets absorbed as it always follows sodium.
This is the main reason why we need salt (sodium) and sugar (glucose). With salt we can prevent “water intoxication” and maintain a good osmolarity; with the correct types of sugars, we forestall the development of lactic acidosis.
An ORS is an Oral Rehydration Solution. A solution can be considered an ORS when it complies with the World Health Organization specification. These solutions are made by mixing the perfect amount of electrolytes and glucose, which can help the body absorb up to ten times as much water.This form of therapy was first discovered more that 50 years ago to treat patients with Cholera. The benefits of ORS use for an active lifestyle have become apparent more recently. SOS has taken this science and developed it for people with active lifestyles.
People with water restrictions, heart or kidney problems should refer to a Physician/Doctor before taking SOS. Also, it should not be consumed by children under 1 year old. SOS is not recommended for those with sedentary lifestyles, unless they suffer from mild to moderate dehydration.
SOS should only be mixed with clean water. Each stick contains enough ingredients to be mixed with 8 fluid ounces (250ml) of water.
Always ensure that the product is well mixed and consumed within 24 hours of preparation.
First things first: SOS does not condone drinking under 18 yrs of age and recommends responsible drinking. And please don’t drink and drive. One of the main reasons people feel terrible the morning after a night out is because they are dehydrated. Alcohol has a diuretic effect because it inhibits the secretion of a hormone in the brain known as the antidiuretic hormone (ADH). This substance acts on the kidney to reabsorb water. When ADH levels drop, the kidneys produce more urine, which dehydrates you. In fact, for every 1 gram of alcohol consumed, urine excretion increases by 10 milliliters.
After an evening of alcohol consumption, we recommend drinking one SOS just before going to bed and one SOS next morning.
This is lifestyle survival according to SOS!
SOS is different from typical sports drinks because it is a low osmolarity solution that contains 3 times more electrolytes and 75% less carbohydrates than typical sports drinks. Due to their high sugar content, Sports Drinks have a high osmolarity. This may lead to bloating and even diarrhoea. High osmolarity in the gut will pull water from the blood vessels into the gut instead of absorbing it; this is known as osmotic diarrhoea.
The main ingredients of energy drinks are high amounts of sugar and caffeine. As their name says, they are made to give an artificial energy boost; they are not meant to rehydrate you. Caffeine is known to be a diuretic because it blocks the Antidiuretic Hormone (ADH) in the brain, thus increasing the urine production. After that initial energy boost you will feel tired and you will definitively be dehydrated. Some of the main dehydration symptoms are tiredness, headaches, constipation, and lightheadedness.
SOS is all-natural and gives you a fast and healthy boost of water. Proper hydration is key for good performance and lifestyle survival.
Diabetic people with active lifestyles can drink SOS to help them hydrate more effectively. SOS contains two types of sugars: sucrose and dextrose. Sucrose is a medium glycemic index sugar. It is a disaccharide (formed by two molecules of sugar). Once it arrives to the small intestines, sucrose splits into one molecule of glucose and one molecule of fructose. After drinking SOS, you will get a small glucose peak, which provides energy and water absorption enhancement.
Dextrose is a simple sugar with a high GI index.
Dehydration can cause headaches, irritability, weakness, dizziness, concentration impairment, tiredness, dry mouth, and more. Any of these symptoms may indicate that you are dehydrated.
A couple of tips below to monitor your hydration status.
Thirst: When we start sensing thirst, we are already 2% dehydrated. Be aware that our thirst sense decreases with aging. Luckily, there are better ways of assessing dehydration!
Urine volume and colour: Yes, as simple as that. Nobody knows your body better than you. You have noticed that after a long run or a big night out your urine volume is lower and the colour is dark-orange–that means that you are dehydrated. If you urinate light and clear urine in a correct volume, your body is hydrated. If you see a darker-orange colour, you are dehydrated.
Yes, even though sodium is essential for osmolarity balance and is involved in many physiologic processes, in excess it can be harmful. Our body has mechanisms to keep a stable sodium-water balance. When we sweat, we lose water with a large sodium concentration. This is why it´s important to replenish the losses. However, too much sodium can cause swelling, and other complications.
SOS provides the correct amount of sodium to replenish what you are losing.
Hydration is necessary for survival. Water is the most important element in humans, as a full 60% of our body is water. This vital liquid is involved in every metabolic process of our body. We can only live one week without it. Losing just 2% of your body weight through dehydration can significantly decrease your performance through detrimental effects on physiological, neuromuscular, reaction, decision making. Using SOS can help you keep performing at your peak.

Should be the ONLY electrolyte drink on the market – and this is my favorite flavour
jem
Great post workout recovery. Generally after a workout my stomach doesn’t appreciate much but SOS has saved me. Mango is also on point.
By Mark Braun
Small, no sugars and electrolytes that can be easily added to water bottles. Delicious and with 20 to a box, begs for a box at home and one in the car or locker.
Why would you spend more and get the same effect? SOS is terrific and rehydrates for athletes and runners who don’t want to carry an extra anything. TRY IT! Smart, really good, terrific design small tubes ready for water).
Rachel
I LOVE SOS Rehydrate, especially for winter marathon training. I use it in my bottles during my run and I also use it as a mix-in for recovery smoothies. And Mango is by far the best flavor! Thanks, SOS!
Tom
I can confirm this stuff is worth it’s weight in gold, I feel that it massively helps my hydration. Increasing my productivity on a daily basis from tedious tasks like sitting at my desk working all the way through to exercising after work. Coconut is not my favorite flavor but mango and berry really hit the spot.
KIE14
I totally recommend SOS coconut! The taste is delicious, no stomach issues and no more cramping during my runs! I finally found a drink that has the perfect amount of electrolytes that I need to help me recover. As a long distance runner I used to struggle with sugary or not enough electrolyte-drinks. A friend that is a doctor and a runner introduced me to SOS as a life saver… IT IS! Thank you SOS!
Elzabeth L.
I love the product! it taste good and it works.
Whether you have a hangover or need to hydrate for your exercising routine I found it very useful.
Well done. My favorite flavor is berries and citrus.
Jennifer Boudreau
This flavor is by far my most favorite SOS flavor of all. Incredibly light flavor, full of electrolytes that get you through your day and your long run! Already on box 4.

Rick R. Reed
What I like about this drink, aside from the obvious health benefits of boosted electrolytes and hydration, is its taste. It’s light, it’s refreshing, with just a hint of coconut. Now, if you’re not a fan of the flavor of coconut, this will probably not be–to mix a metaphor–your cup of tea. But, for me, it’s perfect pre- and/or post-workout to hydrate me and get me feeling back to normal.
AH
Great tasting rehydration drink. Add it to any water and drink away. The small packets fit great in your pocket, purse etc. I like this much better than the similar products because it mixed well. Shake and go! The mango flavor was pretty good-similar to comparable products. The packets opened easily, no frustration or scissors needed. The product “seemed” to rehydrate me, but I suppose I don’t know if it really did much more than water, but I felt it helped!
Trevor Scott
Love this stuff! It’s like Gatorade but without the sugar. Tastes great too!
Jennifer Boudreau
Always need Mango!!!! Long day at work. Pre workout drink. Post work out drink. During work out drink. Anytime of day. SOS is perfect for you!!! It turns a blah run into an amazing run.
Amazon Customer
After gym workout.
Great after drinking too!
Makenz
SOS is the ultimate hangover cure! Mix it with a giant glass of ice cold water and you’re a brand new person! And best of all, it’s organic.
JJS
This stuff is truly a life savor. I always carry some around with me now for any time I’m dehydrated.
Philip May
Very refreshing! Use 1 packet in a Poland spring bottle and shake. It’s very refreshing and Queens and quenches your thirst
Jodi Friedman
Love this flavor — great way to get electrolytes for short to mid length runs. 5 stars for this flavor and 1 star for the coconut that I HATED. That package is a waste of money for my taste buds.
Kitty
At first, I thought it tastes a bit powdery. However, as I get used to drink it, it’s okay with light coconut flavor. I like this because sugar contents. It certainly hydrates better than water when I work out.
Amazon Customer
My husband used the hydration drink mix yesterday for the first time. He had no complaints.
Boruta Di Lira
Excellent electrolyte supplement. Helps in recovery or when you dont have time to hydrate properly. Quite a life saver in many situations. Always carry one or two just in case.
KulaFam
Bought these over and over. I love both coconut and mango. But the coconut has a slightly salty flavor, not a lot, but a nice break from the sweet.
James Costello
Great for hangovers. Tested many times for repeatable results.
P. Boucher
Don’t have much experience with hydration but I stumbled into SOS researching what serious runners liked and SOS seems to be very popular. Unlike comparing fueling options, the effectiveness of SOS is clearly evident from the start. I wish it wasn’t so expensive though.
Ariana
I ordered these just to try not expecting much. I have been trying to clean up my diet due to health issues and trouble losing weight. Drinking a couple of these a day helped out with my POTS syndrome so much! Less fainting spells, not tired as quickly, muscle cramping was relieved a bit. I was able to get off of my blood pressure medication! I highly reccomend trying these!
Nicholas
I’m a Miler and it sounds weird to associate hydration with recovery but trust me this stuff transports your nutrients really well. I like to drink this after a LONG run (10-13mi) or if I’m rushing to get a run in before work this stuff helps with not being so stiff if you have to make a quick transition. If you’re feeling sick (sense sickness coming) this stuff is also better than Gatorade hands down. Leave the pedialyte in the store, Spend your money on this and only use one/two packs a day. I tried 8 ounces of water it’s alittle too “filling” so 16 ounces and I can sip that sucker away in a span of 5 hours. Worth it!
Dana
I think this stuff may be saving my mom. she gets dehydrated and has to go to get an IV every few months with her multiple auto-immune issues. This is keeping her from going to the urgent care and she loves the tasted!
Gregg1030
I’m an older MMA instructor & former all-American wrestler. I’m always dehydrated and drink a ton of water daily. My body retains very little water, so I needed a hydrating source. These are affordable, taste great, and work AWESOME. Anytime a Doctor, who’s knowledge is in this specific area, and a couple of pro athletes develope something…I’ll be more than happy to try it. Just add to your water.
pigglet824
I have used more than a few hydration drinks as a runner & athlete. Most people think sugary drinks like Gatorade help but they don’t – they jack up blood sugar & lack the actual salts you need – you need more than just sodium. This product has a great taste and costs about the same as Ucan hydrate which in my opinion is the only competitive product out there worth using. Nuun works but it’s effervescence has caused tummy issues for me occasionally and def doesn’t work fizzing up in a runner bottle. SOS works for cycling or running & tons of other spots I’m sure but for endurance – you can’t beat the ratio of salts per serving if you also have the fuel you need! It may suck to carry your own stuff in a marathon but it’s worth the stronger run and race I believe !

Easily their best flavour, absolutely brilliant product for my active lifestyle.
Ross Glegg
Great product keeps me hydrated during swim practice. Recommended to all my friends and everyone I don’t know.
Cary R. Russell
My favorite SOS hydration drink yet…It’s the best after during and after a long run.
Lindsey Weitzel
I love SOS! It’s been the perfect rehydrating drink mix!
Amazon Customer
The mango flavor is great. Has made a noticeable difference in post workout hydration and energy levels. I’m recommending this to my workout buddies for sure
bkkolota
Doesn’t taste artificial. Tastes like you’re eating straight mango. Perfect mix of salty and sweet. It’s a necessity for my half marathon training!
Ian pullen
SOS is amazing the recovery you get after a long run is fantastic and this flavour is great. I use SOS during marathon training and as mentioned once I finish my long runs
Amazon Customer
I use this product before I head out drinking and in the morning after. I’ve found that my hangovers are gone, love the stuff, couldn’t survive a big weekend without it.
K Mason
SOS is my go to sports drink for training and local races!!! I quit using Gatorade and Powerade due to the amount of sugar being used.
Destr99
Friend recommended it to me, tried it out and I was really happy with the results. It helped me sustain my energy in a swim practice, immediately following a lifting session. I plan to use this in future over other hydration products I’ve tried in the past.
Amazon Customer
I love this flavor! Its super light on my stomach and great for those days when you wake up hungover.
Craig Shepherd
Great product for those with an active lifestyle. Meets all of my hydration requirements for competition and training. Tastes great too!!
Amazon Customer
Best hydration product on the market. No artificial ingredients and contains ONLY what you need for hydration purposes and nothing you don’t.
I recently moved to altitude from sea level and SOS was the only hydration product that helped me combat dehydration from the elevation change. I won’t ever buy anything else!
Oli
Having used a variety of sports and rehydration products, SOS is by far the best. It does the job in keeping me hydrated before, during and after exercise and it also tastes great. Since first trying this product it has become a staple for me when racing and training. Would definitely recommend to anyone with an active lifestyle!
Ty Godwin
I have run in thirteen marathons including five Boston Marathons. I have tried a variety of hydration supplements and this is the only drink I’ll use anymore. My favorite flavor is Mango followed by Citrus. I am not a big coconut fan in any product so I can’t speak to that. I couldn’t say enough good things about SOS. My review;[…]
Justin W. Newlin
Love SOS. I’ve been using it for a few years now for both staying hydrated when working out or hiking to those morning after a big nite out to help bring me back to “reality”. It’s a great way to start the day. I enjoy all of the flavors, but the new Coconut option is my new favorite.
Nick Grisham
I LOVE SOS!!! I’m in the medical field and know the importance of staying hydrated. I can feel a physical difference after I drink SOS. I will never go on another 6 mile run without it. Also, the girl that introduced it to me, Danielle, has become such an important part of my fitness journey! Thanks y’all!
Melissa K Vance
Having been a runner for almost 20 years now, including running multiple half marathons in a variety of temperatures (#Texas), this continues to be the most hydrating, low sugar/calorie drink I have found. Berry is definitely my favorite, but mango runs a close second
Amazon Customer
This flavor is delicious! I like coconut and mango best, but sometimes I am in the mood for citrus or berry, which have a slightly more mineral taste. Anyway, the stuff works. I use it before and after running. I’ve also tested it after a night out… Long story short, I had too much to drink but felt great in the morning after drinking two glasses of SOS before going to sleep!
Wesley
SOS Hydration Powder is essential for me when biking or running, especially during the summer time in the Texas heat! I had to reach out to their customer service team for some assistance ensuring my order would arrive on time prior to my vacation, and they were able to make it happen!! PS also works great for hangovers 🙂
Emma H
SOS Rehydrate is now my go-to energy drink for long runs and rides. Favourite flavour is mango but I love the citrus one too.
So convenient when you are racing away from home as you can just take some sachets with you rather than the whole 2kg tub which seems to be the norm.
I’m running London Marathon this year and I’ll be taking SOS with me, I won’t rely on the drinks on the course. My training runs are already up to 2 hours and I haven’t had to use a gel yet, this wasn’t the case last time I trained for a marathon.
Cris M
Delicious with no artificial colors or sweeteners, definitely helps with post-workout rehydration for only 10 calories. I tried a liquid electrolyte with no flavor added but found it to taste like salty mineral water and ended up having to add orange juice for flavor. This takes care of everything in a convenient little packet.
Happy Maui Mom
Ever since I started running with SOS my runs have been better and my tummy happier. I am able to run strong in my long runs and marathons while taking less gels and that is WONDERFUL! The stix are easy to carry and I love adding two to my CamelBak vest. Mango is a great flavor that is indulgent and my daughter loves her mango sips after intense riding lessons.
John C. Devito
This product is a game changer. I have been training for 7 Marathons spaced over 6 months. This makes a noticible difference in performance & recovery. Taste great!!
Elizabeth Inpyn
I have a Masters Degree in Exercise Physiology and Sports Nutrition and I couldn’t recommend this product more highly. I have used it myself for over 2 years in both my running and long distance triathlon events. I also recommend it to all of my sports nutrition clients and they have had huge success with it as well. It was a game changer in my performance – I was able to put out more power on the bike and go longer/harder in my training. The taste is a bit ‘salty’ at first but way better than the overly sweet fake sugar sports drinks on the market these days. The science behind SOS is reason enough to drink it. My priorities when choosing a product: science/efficacy, clean (certified to have no toxic or banned substances), taste and company (are good people making the product and I can I support them). For SOS – the answer is yes to all of these. All the flavors are fantastic – I like Berry for long rides, mango for runs and citrus during my swims… can’t say why, just my preference.
Lauren
I must admit that this product saved my @$$ during a fairly important business trip and Sales Meeting this fall. We have all been guilty of the “booze and schmooze” tactic, but it becomes a little more risky when duties require you to show up and lead a group run for the members of a multi-million dollar business. After “happy hour” became a little too happy and prolonged into the night, and maybe the next morning, I mixed two packets worth of SOS in my hotel room before going to sleep, one in the morning, and I was good to go. I swear… NO HANGOVER. And a pleasant run! I highly recommend having this product on hand. I never plan on drinking too hard, but I always want to be ready to go and perform respectably in the morning. As far as flavor recommendation… I am a huge fan of Citrus. (But some complain it is a little too salty… I think of it as a healthy margarita!) Berry is fine. Mango seems to be a popular hit.

I like this so much, I am ordering more. Coconut!
I am not an athlete. I do exercise regularly. I do have a tendency to under-hydrate. This is perfect. As stated elsewhere, I prefer this mixed with cold water, instead of room temperature. It has real coconut and a slight coconutty flavor. Shortly after consuming one of these, I do feel more hydrated. I like this well enough, I will continue to stock it in my cupboard, even though the price is a little dear. Recommended.
An Amazonn famiilyyy
Wow! What a game changer! Honest to God this product has literally saved my life on multiple occasions. Drinking one before bed and one the next morning truly prevents the dreaded hangover! I highly recommend trying it out as there is nothing worse than a bad hangover!
Jimmy K.
This is a great product and has a great flavor that is not overpowering. I purchased this for a 12 mile hike with 5,000 feet of elevation gain. I believe this product had a great deal to do with how successful my hike was. I took one packet before I went to bed (w/24oz of water) and another packet one hour before I did the hike (w/24 oz of water). This allowed me to reach the summit with only drinking 1 liter of water the whole way. I felt really hydrated and did not have any issues with cramping up. Good stuff.
Amazon Customer
If you run one mile or 50 miles in a week, THIS is your hydration!

I used to buy an Advocare product for energy and find this product as effective and much less expensive. I’m a fan.
Latonya John
Easy to drink

Taste amazing!
shanna r.
Excellent product, i love that it has no chemical or stevia aftertaste
Cat
I really like the berry flavor of SOS — I’m a marathon runner and use this all the time for both prehydration and while I’m running. Unlike some other hydration powders the flavor is great without being too sweet.
Donna Peterich
The citrus flavor is amazing! I have used this in every marathon and think the electrolytes always help to get me to that finish line.
Robert L Burger
Fantastic product. So smooth without the sugar sick feeling that other sports drinks give you
Theo Corfiatis
This works very well, and is great to carry a few sachets which can be added to bottled water in case of dehydration.
Amazon Customer
Great for long runs…no dry mouth!! Works great the next morning after having too many adult beverages:) It is a little on the salty side, but for feeling hydrated, it is the best I found.
Roger E Dunham
Terrific product that helps me fight off dehydration . I am a photographer and on the street 8-10hrs day ..when its hot I need a little help to stay hydrated . This stuff works great !
Melixa
This hydration product is the best I’ve tried on the market. I’m a long distance runner and even have the physicians and nurses I work and run with using the product. We are all reporting top notch results. Coconut is the top choice for flavor followed by the berry in our group.
Amazon Customer
SOS saved my Saturday!! I took SOS after going out on on a Friday night and woke up feeling hydrated and ready to go. It’s my go-to hangover solution. It’s also great to take for a workout or when you’re sick!
Sgitheanach
Helps me after working on the Ranch or when I’m feeling not so good…
Jennifer Boudreau
I don’t know what I would do without SOS. It’s amazing! Fast absorption into the body so you are ready and rehydrated for your run. I drink SOS before and during my runs and have never felt better.
ellyn delaney
Works great
Morgan Wilson
This is the best hydration solution out there! All flavors taste amazing but I especially like the citrus and coconut flavors. There isn’t a neon color which means its all natural and not artificial. The packets are so convenient, I have them everywhere in my life, (desk, backpack, kitchen). Also, make sure you mix with correct amount of water (8-16 oz), otherwise it tastes a little bland. I 100% recommend this product for everyday uses!
Texasgirl
I have Ulcerative Colitis, and have a problem staying hydrated. This helps quite a bit.
KH
These things work, period. You will not have the hangover headache. It doesn’t fix any stomach issues the next day.
JEJ
Fantastic product, full stop. It keeps me hydrated for long runs (50 minutes or more) to maintain a quicker pace deeper into the workout. Of all of the workout supplements I use (hydration, pre-workout carb bars, gels, post-run protein shakes) this is the most NOTICABLY effective component to my nutrition regimen.
Taste wise, it is salty but the science of the product dictates that. The berry variety has a flavor that I enjoy.
Carlos
Fantastic , Awesome Electrolyte drink I used it especially after and before my runs or sporting activities. A must especially heavy night of drinking alcohol beverage. Definitely saves me next the next day 🙂
Nancy J. Williams
Great hydration product. I use it for all of my training hydration needs. It is great for before, during, and/or after activities. I can’t recommend this enough. It is as helpful as having an IV, without the pain of getting an actual IV! Great source of hydration, and it is likely because it has great science and great developers behind it! It is way better than any fizzy tablet that you put in your water. This product is actually useful unlike the competitors. The fizzy tablet products are fake and nasty tasting. SOS is real hydration with great taste. BOOM!
John
Products has less content than competitors, for myself this product is best!
I dehydrate quickly, always have, this product does as it says, and as many others have said, I can safely say SOS has gotten me out of less the desireable situations like sleeping in my own bed rather than sleeping on a trail overnight..
Brie
I love the flavor of these. They give an extra punch to water. I’ve used them during long gym sessions and after hangovers and they’re great for both. I keep some in my gym bag and my purse in case of emergencies.
Jennifer Baldwin
Most mango flavor is off and doesn’t really resemble mango much. This does. It’s light, refreshing and not loaded with sugar so we like it in our house.
Shirley
Glad I found these on Amazon! I tried a sample at my local grocery store & was instantly hooked! Unfortunately they no longer sold it when I went to purchase. Keeps my hydrated all day, I use it after my kick boxing class & will continue to use! Amazing stuff!!
Jill L. Goyette
Best hydration aid I’ve found. Wish I knew about it sooner. I’m a long distance marathon runner prone to dehydration and leg cramps. I’ve been looking for the perfect hydration drink; without drinking all those sugary sports drink. So far I love SOS, all though I have not used it during a long hot summer run. I suspect it will work great this summer, since I’ve been having such great results with it.
Rob B.
I’ve been using SOS for 3 years now. It’s seen me through multiple triathlons, century cycling rides, and other events. I tried a bunch of different drinks through the years. Most of which are somewhat heavy/dense compared to straight water. During endurance events, I find my body reacts best to SOS’ light feeling. Anything that doesn’t bog down my body is best for long-distance events.
Karen
I discovered SOS products at he 2017 Boston marathon. As an avid runner, specifically distance running, I’m always on looking to optimize my hydration plan. SOS works great for me. It doesn’t leave that sugary taste in your mouth like most sports drinks & doesn’t upset the stomach. I also feel like you don’t have to drink as much to get the same level of hydration. I highly recommend. Oh and all the flavors are great. Right now I’m on a mango kick.
Heidi Reviews
Now that I know about SOS, I don’t know what I would do without it! I first started using SOS for high intensity workouts and noticed that I felt more capable to operate at higher levels of fitness for longer periods of time, which was amazing. Bonus: every time I drank it prior to a workout, people I saw would comment on how incredible my skin looked, which is awesome! Then, I became pregnant with my third child, and noticed that SOS is organic, so I kept drinking it since you need so much more hydration in pregnancy, and felt so much better than with normal water since you need less, and there isn’t that much space for water when you are pregnant. Now, I am breast feeding my third child, and again, I require extra hydration. SOS is SUCH a gift for my current high level hydration needs, it quenches my thirst perfectly every time. I love all the flavors, but mango is my current favorite – so delicious and refreshing – just the sweet treat I need when I am feeling dehydrated. And, as previous commenters have noted, the individual packets make SOS so convenient to have anywhere at any time. I love this stuff!!
Amazon Customer
SOS is amazing. I’m an avid runner and all-out life enthusiast. I’ve tried many different forms of electrolytes. Most leave you with a terrible gut rot feeling and sloshing in your belly. I have not once encountered those feelings with SOS. The taste is great (I love mango and coconut). It dissolves quickly so you aren’t left with a sugary mess at the bottom of the bottle.
I drank a bottle of SOS before my last marathon. (I happened to PR and BQ!) I didn’t feel like I had to pee it out 30 minutes later, my head was clear thoughout the run and no belly troubles.
This stuff is amazing and I highly recommend it. It has a mild salinity to the flavor but never feels thick or leaves a sticky residue. Awesome product. Will never use anything else!
SHELDON BRIGHT
These things literally saved my life. I was hiking in hot humid Texas back country not paying attention. I was drinking plenty of water and sweating like crazy. I figured since I was drinking lots of water and peeing a lot I was okay. NOPE! Started getting light headed and feeling sick. first signs of hyponatremia. I quickly drank one of these in a cup of water and added two to my camel pack. I felt much better in an hour or so but still a little shaky. After drinking one more before bed I felt fine the next day. I kept adding these in my water pack the rest of the trip and didn’t have any issues. Even though I was drenched in sweat. Made me a believer.
AJ
We bought this as a treatment in case we got a case of Montezuma’s revenge on a trip to Costa Rica (Montezuma being one of our stops) to replenish electrolytes. We didn’t need it for its intended use but it was a life saver as it came to the high temperatures and humidity. We nearly passed out on our second day there and started adding this to our water at the start of the day. What a difference we were able to stay active all day using one pack each/day. The flavor is great and tasted better than the EmergenC brand (Though EmergenC has no artificial sweeteners). Both worked well and both were the proper level of sweetness when dissolved into 1 liter of water. Hint: Freeze the mix overnight and it stays cool almost all day.

I tried this product once because I heard about it a lot from the running community. I’ve had a few instances where SOS has saved my run.
Whether it’s hydrating to make my 18+ mile long runs feel like 7 mile runs, or the quick rehydration after a race or a long run, you can definitely feel SOS doing its job. I had a 10mile run one day where I didn’t take SOS prior but 3 miles in I felt sluggish and tired running 7:15pace. So I went back to my car put 2 packets in a water, gave it 5mins to do its thing and went back out. The 7:15s turned to 6:40s and it felt comfortable. This is where I became a believer.
Ever since I’ve taken SOS I’ve PRed in 3 distances in 2016. (5k 15:22, 5 miles 24:54, Marathon 2:39:19). I’m not saying SOS is 100% the reason why but I wasn’t running these times when I wasn’t taking SOS. The factors that make up SOS are key for staying hydrated and for helping out immensely with the rehydration process. Just like the Boston Marathon, I’ll be taking it prior, during (its a 2 loop course) and after the Baystate marathon in October as I shoot for sub 2:30.
The professional and Olympic athlete backing should speak enough about this product. If you want to be the best you have to train like the best and SOS is on their list. They have a user for life in me and I’ll continue to recommend this product to all my friends and athletes. I use SOS for every workout, long run, race, and just if I need something more then water.
For those who say it’s too pricey is absurd, for $18-20 you get 20 packets which is anywhere from 10-20 drinks. So anywhere from $1-$2 a drink, where gatorade us $2 and up per drink (also filled with some junk along with good ingredients) for that price it’s at least worth a shot. You would be disappointed! It’s awesome stuff!

I’m not a huge fan of the taste but it’s tolerable. I love this product because it friggin works! I moved to Vegas from the PNW and I would be dying of thirst about 1/2 a mile into my run. I tried running with a water bottle but I was still struggling wth serious dry mouth and throat issues. Enter this stuff… I drink one the night before or the morning of a long run and hydrate like normal and I can run for about 2-3 miles before I feel like I REALLY need water. I’m impressed.

SOS is the best hydration option I have tried. I’ve only had the citrus flavor, but will definitely try the blueberry. I used it during a long run and felt great….no stomach problems or cramps like I usually get from sports drinks (which are too sugary tasting for me) or other tabs (which just taste like chemicals). I really enjoyed the taste too…a little sweet and a little salty – it was just right. I will recommend SOS to my running club for sure.

SOS hydration is gold to my running routine! I’m training for an ultra 50k and SOS gives me the extra hydration and boost I need on my long runs! I love the coconut flavour and the citrus!! They are at the top with my other faves!! I don’t leave the house for a race or run without SOS in my soft flask! Thanks so much SOS great product!
Keisha
Love my SOS hydration – it’s my go to for during or after a long run. With convenient sachets, and great flavours, I couldn’t survive summer runs without my SOS!
Jeanne
I love SOS – great way to stay hydrated while on the run!!
Meredith
I have tried the mango SOS. At first I was dubious about the flavour because I usually only like lemon flavours, but the taste was fantastic. It wasn’t too sweet, and I found that it really aided my post race recovery. Thanks for making such a great product.
Darren
Absolutely love the SOS range. The flavours are great and it gives me such a refreashing feeling after a long run. It feels like thats just what i needed, because it is! It makes me feel great and perform better. What more could you ask for?
Rohan
Since discovering SOS Hydration I have been so impressed with the product that I have shared my first batch with my Run Well training crew . Not only does SOS taste great, I feel refreshed & wbegetic after workouts & training sessions and appreciate the reduced sugar content & hence avoiding associated sugar spikes . SOS has become a daily replenishing drink that tastes great!
Kerri-Ann
LOVE my SOS! Before exercise to make sure I’m hydrated, afterwards to get my electrolytes sorted… without having to worry about extra sugar and calories. Great flavors, easy to mix, it’s brilliant!
Denyan
I have been using SOS for nearly a year now and it has helped me balancing a busy Uni and Running life by making sure I have a hydrated healthy body and mind! The flavours are great, my favourite taste-wise is the coconut, but I can’t go past citrus after a race or tough workout!
Cullen
I love sos they have the best hydrating products out there hands down. Love these emails as well.
Kirsty
I love that SOS is in individual sachets so I can have a few in my running bag, a few in my glove box and some in my handbag! Also, they dissolve easily so there isn’t any gritty water at the end!
Jina
Love SOS. Because of low sugar content I can drink without worries.
Carlos
Fantastic product, it works a must buy especially if your doing sports ⚽🎾⚾

Each morning I would wake up and start my day with a scoop and a bottle of water. Helped me recover from the night before and feel good for the day in the sun at the beach. No complaints and will continue to order this stuff.

I just finished training for my first half marathon and used SOS during and after my runs. It was not only tasty, but also allowed me to keep going. The citrus flavor is my favorite. It’s small, easy to carry and easy to drink. I plan on keeping a constant supply of these at my place, and I highly recommend you do the same!
Amazon Customer
I run a lot and I have tried several hydration products. This one is my favorite. It’s not sweet and immediately begins to make me feel better after a long, humid run.
TJK on Amazon
Drink before bed after a night of drinking. Maybe placebo but I swear it helps.
Nikki Zepeda
I have an illness that makes me extremely dehydrated and I’ve tried many things, including hospital IVs….. This is the only product that I’ve found that makes the difference and the price is much cheaper than most energy drinks!
Guillermo Ortiz
I use to have the regular brands after running but got tired of drinking plain water with sugar. I have been trying with SOS and I do feel the differece. Aside from the formulation has many good things: 1. Small packages are easy to carry 2. Simple to mix with water when you’re ready to drink, 3. Taste is good and refreshing. Citrus flavor is my fav.
Erin
Amazing taste and great value, after following few girls on instagram was convinced to try and was amazed how good they taste
Betty
Love this flavour! Why can’t all sports drink be like SOS Hydration?
Trevor Rogers
What a great product, Ive been using SOS for almost a year now and I’ve yet to catch a cramp during my Tri events. Beyond the product being amazing I got a chance to meet the founders who are highly educated and retired world class athletes, I was able to speak with them and learn more of hydration and how immense it was towards my physical performance.
Daniel Rogers
I work in the construction industry and its a great product to take to work. The convenience of small sachets makes it easy to put into your bottle of water whenever you need to. Water isnt enough for me and SOS helps keep me hydrated and focused especially on a hot day in the sun.
Bob Webley
I tried it for the first time yesterday, free samples on Bicycle Qld’s Great Brisbane Bike Ride, I found the product great, good taste, not too sweet, and seemed to make rehydration just that bit easier, it is a product I intend using on future rides.
Bronwyn Yudkin
Great idea as the SOS on the bottle is a great reminder to drink and rehydrate yourself
Lynsey on Amazon
I used the product before and after my first half marathon and was able to see a noticeable difference in how I felt; now I use SOS on a daily basis! I did a lot of research on other similar rehydration products and found SOS to be the best option health-wise. I have a magnesium deficiency and a big draw for me was the levels of magnesium in the SOS product; an added bonus was the low levels of sugar the product offers in comparison to other similar products.
Whitney Shearer
The first initial tastes kind of salty but immediately afterwards it goes away and you can barely taste anything. I love it because it has low sugar but great for hot summer days. I’m a runner and use it in a more concentrated form on race day.
Matt S Slee
I tried your sachets last week in training. Good choice of flavours! I’ll make a purchase before my next race block. 🙂
Damien Gosley
Honestly, just tastes great, works great. No flaws.
Allisha Jean
Current favourite is definitely coconut!
Hayley Wolfenden
Tastes great! …………………………….. 🙂
Sarah Spoljaric
I really like the coconut flavour. SOS doesn’t upset my stomach post run like some other brands.
Hayley Mclean
I love every flavour. We all need more then water every other day. SOS is the perfect choice as there is less sugar.
Belinda Garlick
Tastes great, refreshing and easy to drink – instead of sugary. Amazing product for sports, hangovers and firefighting.
Gregory on Amazon
I can say with confidence that the product also works extremely well when taken before going to bed to mitigate the effects of drinking alcohol. I notice a huge improvement the next morning versus drinking just plain water.

What a fantastic product I can’t recommend it any more highly it was such a game changer in my training and on race day. Thank you SOS.
Michelle Eggers
Historically I used SOS regularly for any run post 7 miles. I am very sensitive–prone to quick dehydration and allergic to sugar so SOS is the only drink on the market that works for me, preventing dehydration, muscle cramps and headaches. Last week during my run my arm swelled up and I was rushed to the hospital; the end result was a blood clot as a result of a sports injury. The blood thinners the doctor put me on is dehydrating me and causing severe cramping/pain. I remembered that SOS essentially works like an IV. I have been drinking 2 a day and it completely relieved the cramping.
Cayla
So delicious (especially the mango flavour 😉) and great that it’s a better alternative for me than other brands on the market!

Great product. I’ve recommended it to a few friends and they’ve loved it too!
