Comments about Pacific Health Labs Accelerade 60 Servings Nutrition:

I really had good results with the lemon-flavor. I used it while training and during my last 1/2 and full marathons this past May. The taste is a bit icky when warm, but I usually mixed it with ice cubes and water in my hand-held water bottle to keep it cool as long as possible. I had no tummy problems, and I really felt it helped with energy on those runs longer than 1 hour.

Taste good. The product really did help my muscles recover faster than without any supplement. I was starting to feel muscle fatigue after three runs during the week before taking this supplement. Now my muscles are not feeling the fatigue even after my five days of running and working out. I like that it has whey protien in it to give you a longer sustaining energy as well as the quicker carb energy. I will purchase this product again.

mixes well and tastes good

I use this before and during runs over 10 miles. I find that it really aids hydration and replenishes electrolyte loss. I don't like running without it.

My family uses this product durning and after workouts and running. My teenagers use it after track practice and it keeps them from being sore.

I've been using Endurox on the bike for three years now. I have been around and trialed just about every drink floating around in the world of triathlon and so far I haven't been able to part with Endurox. My body craves the stuff when I run out of it on long rides and I'm forced to switch to gas station gatorade. I don't suggest drinking substantial amounts before an intense run (I'm assuming the protein in it, which is a blessing on the bike, is what disrupts the bouncing GI tract on the run.) I've found as long as I'm not chugging bottles of it it works just fine on the run too though. But if you're a cyclist, there's nothing better in my experience. It helped me achieve a 7th place overall amateur bike split during the Lake Placid Ironman, so I think it deserves every one of its five stars.

I have always loved the Accel Gel on long runs and when I ran out I had a container of Accerade that I purchased from my local running store. I drank 12 oz prior to a long run and really did feel the difference. My son uses it before his hockey games. He calls it Hurcu-aid, you know like Hurcules. I do think that RRS has a high price, my local running store charges much less and I am a VIP member.

I like the mountain berry, when i went to order it they didn't have it in stock. So that is why I dropped two stars. The drink is a great choice

FANTASTIC PRODUCT! A MUST USE!

Comments about Pacific Health Labs Accelerade 60 Servings Nutrition:

This product is fine, but RRS took a major step back in discontinuing the Orange flavored drink that does not contain caffeine. I see no reason for any runner to require caffeine during a run, and I am an early morning runner. I had call Pacific Health to confirm that they still sell non-caffinated Orange--they do--and then I had to go to an RRS competitor to buy it. I STRONGLY recommend that RRS start selling non-caffinated Orange again. They'll have to if they want my regular business for this drink.

Out of all the sports drinks I've tried, Accelerade (fruit punch) suits me the best for long, strenuous bike rides (never tried any sports drinks during a run though). First of all, it doesn't make me phlegmy like the others do. Second, it feels like fuel for my body: it's hard to describe the feeling, but after I drink some on a ride, it feels like "my body needed that" -- whereas after I drink other sports drinks on a ride, it feels like "hope that helps." =)

I enjoy this product.

I add this product to my vanilla protein shake and i get the benefits all together. it makes the protein taste really good.

Comments about Pacific Health Labs Accelerade 60 Servings Nutrition:

Tastes great and extends my endurance during racing and long distance training.

Comments about Pacific Health Labs Accelerade 60 Servings Nutrition:

4:1 Carb to Protein ratio. I've been using it for years. I prefer mixing it in a 1/2 liter bottle (16.9 oz). Use before and during long runs, and after runs under an hour. Orange and Mountain Berry are my favorite flavors.

Comments about Pacific Health Labs Accelerade 60 Servings Nutrition:

The most important thing to know is that it works as advertised!

Comments about Pacific Health Labs Accelerade 60 Servings Nutrition:

I've tried others and they don't compare. This taste great,mixes easy and works.

Comments about Pacific Health Labs Accelerade 60 Servings Nutrition:

While I use gels and this product while running long, for soccer or shorter workouts up to 90 minutes or before workout I prefer just staying with Accelerade.
For soccer and runnning I did not take anything else than water and decided to change in prep of a half marathon. It really makes a great difference.
I like this product because my muscles do not get tired by far as they did before.
Great product. Tastes good, not best, but I prefer functionality!

Have been buying the mountain berry flavor for years and liked it very much. Just got a new order and it isn't the same. It used to be a light blue color when mixed but now looks like dirty dishwater. The taste is off from what it was and it doesn't seem to mix as well as it used to. I tried calling the company to ask what is going on, but nobody answers phones, it's all voice mail and I refuse to play phone tag. I bought two cans on my last order. I'll be returning the unopened can and haven't decided if i'm going to continue to use the can that was opened. The one thing I do know, i'll be looking for a new sports drink.

I use before and after workout.

Taste is good and easy to mix.

Comments about Pacific Health Labs Accelerade 60 Servings Nutrition:

I think that Accelerade really fuels my runs well, but I'm not totally in love with the taste. (I ordered the Mountain Berry flavor.) It tastes a bit chalkier to me than a drink like Gatorade, but the flavor isn't necessarily "bad," and I keep drinking it because I think it fuels my workout really well and helps my recovery. If you really like sweet drinks for workouts you may not like it, but if you're looking for something to give you good performance, I'd try this product.

can use product anytime. tastes great and hydrates you.

Comments about Pacific Health Labs Accelerade 60 Servings Nutrition:

Just trying this product for the first time. Tastes okay--a little hard to get used to at first--kind of tastes like milk mixed with OJ. (Has milk and soy protein). Not served on my marathon course, so I don't want to rely on in solely. Package information claims it to be better than the average sports drink.

Comments about Pacific Health Labs Accelerade 60 Servings Nutrition:

Bought this for the first time. Seems like from the description it should be better than your average sports drink. Little different taste--looks kind of orange juice--not a "clear" product when mixed, so it looks a little to me like a milk product mixed with orange sports drink. I'm getting used to it, but can't tell yet if it is much better during runs. It's not served on my marathon course, so I hate to rely on it too much.

Comments about Pacific Health Labs Accelerade 60 Servings Nutrition:

I mix up 3 scoops in one of my large water bottles prior to a long ride. Easy way to get needed calories.

Comments about Pacific Health Labs Accelerade 60 Servings Nutrition:

I would rate the Acclerade a 5 out of 5 in performance, but a 3 out of 5 for value. Its great to take during a workout in the morning to ensure you are nourished for an evening workout. Or if you have two big workouts on back-to-back days.

I would not recommend for race use because the protein is not needed and would slow down your digestive tract.

Comments about Pacific Health Labs Accelerade 60 Servings Nutrition:

I have been using Accelerade for several years now after having it recommended by a track coach. I have never had any problems with digestion or cramping when using this product and I use it both before and during exercise. I feel like I have an unfair advantage when using this product as my energy and endurance levels are both increased during long bike rides, stair workouts or ultimate Frisbee games.

Comments about Pacific Health Labs Accelerade 60 Servings Nutrition:

Great for long workouts!

Comments about Pacific Health Labs Accelerade 60 Servings Nutrition:

This product does the job for us long distance runners, be it a three mile run or a half marathon. It comes packed with energy that we need, and it quenches our thirst which is inevitably going to affect us during our runs. Versus replying on a water handout during a half marathon, we should all utilize this drink to replenish us and allow us to easily finish our races and to recover that much quicker. I'll never consider running any distance with this drink.
