Liquid I.V. reviews and discussion

Liquid IV is great in a pinch and I used to use them a TON when I was in college and needed a next morning boost, if you know what I mean. However, they are pretty high in sugars which in my older age, is something I am aware of. You definitely have to mix them in pretty well to avoid settling of powder at the bottom.

Overall Liquid IV is a better option than some other electrolyte or energy drinks, but it still doesn’t mean it’s good for you. I enjoy the lemon-lime energy one, and do feel like it helped give me more energy during a long day, but don’t like a lot of the other flavors. We always had a supply of this in our house for a long time but have since switched to LMNT to avoid all the sugar and focus more on hydration through salt.

I have used Liquid IV off and on for a few years now. I have to be honest that I don't enjoy all of the flavors - Lemon Lime has to be my favorite (i know that is the unpopular opinion). However, I just hate how much sugar is in these small packets. But they are small and great to travel with - especially if you just need an extra boost of hydration!

I have tried the energy liquid iv and was pleasantly surprised that it did give me energy. The flavor is not that great but is definitely not the worst I have tried.

I love Liquid IV! Such great flavors and it really does work. The only issue I have is how much sugar is in the product.

Finally got influenced!! I got Liquid IV for a festival and now I’m hooked! The mango habanero flavor is fireeeee!! The packaging is easy to transport and very event friendly! I also have shared these with friends and love trading flavors too!

Very salty but good for if you are dehydrated and need a significant dose of electrolytes. I don’t use often but am glad I tried it and could use if I know I’m getting a lot of extra sun/sweat exposure.

I did not like the taste of this. I will say I don’t often like flavored water so that might play into I also don’t like stevia which this is flavored with. From a hydration standpoint I tried it to help with my migraines but I think because of not liking the taste it didn’t help with the hydration

I tried so many electrolyte drinks when going through chemotherapy. I like the availability of liquid IV but it definitely wasn’t one of my favorites. With all of the hydration supplements it seems to be a balance between enough sweetness to balance the saltiness.

LOVE these. I used to be so bad at remembering to drink water throughout the day (a crime, I know), so having one of these in a glass of water would revive me from that dehydrated feeling.

I have tried many different flavors of Liquid I.V. and have yet to find one that I truly enjoy the taste of. I really appreciate how easy they are to use and the idea behind the product, especially as someone who struggles to drink enough water, but I find them too sweet and artificial tasting.

First ingredient? Pure cane sugar. Second ingredient? Dextrose (sugar made from corn or wheat). Third ingredient? Citric acid - a preservative that's also used in cleaning products. THEN come the vitamins. Need I continue? Just take a multivitamin, this is useless.

I have one before and after a night out, as well as after long summer runs. Definitely makes me feel more hydrated and does most of the trick in regards to hangovers. That being said, it's hard to make a scientific A/B test, but at the very least I can say that it's delicious (lemon lime flavor) and because of that, I always end up chugging a ridiculous amount of it.

This is such a lifesaver! I have talked about needing a literal liquid IV since I was a child, as I have issues with fainting when I stand up, change from running to walking, etc. Not getting enough water or electrolytes makes the issues worse, and unfortunately I am one of those people who does not like water. I have definitely noticed a huge difference when using Liquid IV, and it feels like the same effects as just drinking a lot of water. I think it is perfect for hangovers, POTs, or any other health problem related to water-intake!

Life saver. Truly. Great for when I'm not getting enough water in. The taste is as good as I've been able to find for an electrolyte product.

I bought these for my dad. He is a type 2 diabetes and works outside at his Texas ranch. This works great to keep him hydrated and his sugar from dropping while he is working.

Delicious! Functional! What more do you need? Love this things. Easy to keep in your gym bag, purse, desk, wherever. I seriously try to drink water all day and I love it but sometimes I can't keep up. I had a few months were I thought something was wrong with me, i was dragging all the time but turns out I just needed some electrolytes! If i have an especially sweaty gym sesh or it's a really hot day, I'll add these to my routine. Otherwise, I keep on hand for when I feel "off" and gives me a little boost. Love the watermelon flavor especially, but they are all good. No weird fake sweetener taste to me.

While I appreciate the hydration boost provided by the electrolytes in this product, I often find the flavor to be too sweet. That said, the travel packs are very convenient. However, the price point is much higher than that of many of its competitors, without a noticeable difference in result.

Liquid IV is good, but I consider it to be quite overpriced for what it is. If you are trying to cure a hangover, just take any electrolytes rather than paying the upcharge for a name brand item. They all do the trick!

Honestly, I feel like they’re too poverty and don’t taste good. I mean they make you feel better but the taste isn’t something that I would say it’s my goal too and it doesn’t have that big of an effect but it’s still.
