Needed. Hydration Support with Electrolytes & Trace Minerals – Electrolytes for Pregnancy & During Lactation - 30 Hydration Packets Lightly Sweetened with Real Fruit, Grapefruit

So grateful to find something with such clean ingredients that helps me stay hydrated. Easily dissolves and all the flavors taste great, I truly can’t pick a favorite. Could be a little less sweet for my taste but not a biggie. Be warned because they are naturally pigmented that they will stain clear reusable straws (like for a Stanley)

I suffered from horrible morning sickness and was not getting proper fluids. I LOATHE sugars and artificial sweeteners, and I especially loathe stevia. Yes, these taste like salt, but it's not a big deal, get over it. Sugar is poison and these are sugar-free. I didn't mind the flavors. The only issue I had with these is as I entered the end of my second trimester and now am in my third, these exacerbate my heartburn so I stopped using them. I like all flavors. Grapefruit gave me the least amount of heartburn. I definitely recommend them because of the clean, sugar-free ingredients and I did feel good after drinking them. I feel guilty about the packaging and the price is a wee high.

and I cannot return. Save your money, this is SO gross! I thought it might taste like lemonade, it doesn’t at all. I’ll stick with Redmond’s Re-Lyte.

I had the worst metallic taste in my mouth during my first trimester whenever I tried to drink plain water. Just the thought of water sounded absolutely terrible, so staying hydrated was way harder than I expected. Adding Needed to my water made such a difference because it gave it just enough flavor to make it actually drinkable without being too sweet or overwhelming when I was already feeling nauseous. It honestly became one of the only ways I could consistently get fluids in during those early weeks. I also loved having the extra electrolytes on days when I was feeling especially drained, queasy, or just generally not myself. It felt like a really easy way to support hydration when pregnancy was making even the simplest things harder. Definitely one of those products I was genuinely grateful to have on hand and would absolutely keep stocked for pregnancy and postpartum.

Despite other reviews, I like the taste. It is a mild taste and gives me something else to drink besides water. I even sometimes just do 1/2 a packet in my water to make it last longer. I love that it’s clean ingredients as Gatorade is rated 1/100 on Yuka! My ob wants me to drink electrolytes esp in summer for pregnancy so this works.

I didn’t like the flavor of any of these. My dr didn’t recommend them because she said they had a lot of sodium. However I still drank it throughout my third trimester because I was so thirsty all the time. I appreciate the vitamin intake but again the flavor for all three options was gross.

I was a little hesitant to try the Needed Hydration Support with Electrolytes & Trace Minerals because some reviews mentioned that it tasted salty. My first sip of the grapefruit flavor did have a slightly salty taste, but after drinking it a few times, I actually ended up really loving it. It’s especially refreshing in ice-cold water. The lime and lemon flavors are great as well and not quite as strong as the grapefruit. Overall, I’ve been really happy with them and plan to keep ordering. My only downside is the price — I just wish they were a bit more affordable.

Not even sure how to rate this. 1 star because the packaging is nice and another for delivery. This is the nastiest tasting electrolyte. I got the lemon hopeful it would be palatable for me since I’m 7 weeks pregnant and have morning sickness but this stuff made me throw up.
