Best of Thingtesting4.4

Magna earns largely positive reviews for delivering noticeable hydration, recovery, and calm focus, though opinions split on flavor consistency and an occasional lingering aftertaste. Reviews highlight standout flavors like Blood Orange, Watermelon Lime, and Apple Juice, but note uneven dissolution, some artificial-tasting notes, and sensitivity on empty stomachs.

    I was intrigued by Magna who had been targetting me with their ads. The hydration market is oversaturated but what stands out is the focus on magnesium, which is the new buzz for better sleep and recovery. I got the starter kit which got me a free bottle too, but also was dying to try the apple juice flavor (stands out again from the lemon limes, berries, etc). I will say unfortunately there is an aftertaste I can't shake, so this is going to be my husband's to finish. Love to see the product out in the market and worth while to try!

    I got to try the variety pack and apple juice flavor. Based on flavor alone, I'm actually very impressed with the right amount of sweetness. I work out a lot and I do feel it helps with my muscle recovery, and sometimes you don't want to guzzle down a candy-sweet drink all the time. I'm kinda over the blue raspberries, and pink lemonades, and sour gummy flavors out there so these were refreshing for a change. The variety pack is good. Watermelon lime is tasty, more lime than watermelon. The watermelon note is the artificial/candy type, not like the real fruit. Blood Orange, Lemon Lime taste closer to light gatorade flavors, and the Ice Tea is pretty spot on to a lipton/snapple ice tea. All are good with ice. The new Apple Juice flavor definitely has a strong scent of apple but the sweetness is VERY mild/delicate (think rock or palm sugar). You won’t get that sharp sweet taste of a biting into a real apple, it tastes more like the lingering aftertaste of apple. My tip: I find that squeezing a lemon and a few drops of monkfruit gives it the tartness of a pink lady.

    I hate how much I love these (because of the priceeeee)... I genuinely think that this is an incredible product and I will tell you why. I got samples of these at an event and at my run club and I tried it because ya girl needs extra magnesium all day everyday. Let me tell you, I did NOT like that first flavor I tried. I don't remember which one it was. So for a while, even though I generally liked how it made me feel, I left my samples untouched. But then I was running low on my favorite electrolytes and went back to my Magna sample pouches and drank them a few days in a row with some flavors still being rough while really liking others. And, unfortunately for my wallet, I really noticed a difference in how I felt. It shouldn't have been a surprise because I have been told by numerous doctors that I need more magnesium (but after my favorite magnesium supplement was discontinued I just stopped doing that) but it really did make me feel better. Anyway, so after looking into the price I was a little discouraged, but Black Friday deals helped me pull the trigger and now I'm happily drinking these every day. It's like a little treat. I feel a little guilty for abandoning my other electrolytes but these just cover everything I need for now. Maybe once I run out and prices are back to normal I'll go back to my old faves.

    Tbh I was not expecting to like this as much as I do! They're not too salty or too sweet, no weird aftertaste, and no gross gunk left in the bottom. Lemon lime and iced tea lemonade were good, but I didn't find myself reaching for them. Watermelon lime may have just made me a liquid iv convert, though. If there were more flavors like that, I'd be fully sold. But none of the others speak to me right now. Also the pouches are kinda hard to open. Love the magnesium in it and will deff try again!
