    Not likely to be bad for you, but not much more than water with a pinch of salt and flavour. If it makes you drink your water, fine, but probably more expensive then they are worth.

    I probably get more than enough salt in my diet already, so would have no need for additional electrolytes.

    Some people make their own isotonic drinks. If you get lo-lo salt it is a similar enough mix as some of these drinks.

    Cheers for that ,I was going to stay out for longer originally but I can only manage 30mins at the moment.
    As soon as I get out for longer ,I'll try the salt.
