Northwest Hiking

A little out of the ordinary for me, I would like to review Propel water.  Many hikers and outdoor sports enthusiasts already know about the powder  packets and water bottles available at pretty much any grocery store.  There are a few reasons why propel is such a great liquid to keep with you, but the main ones are hydration and vitamins.  Studies show that when water is flavored, you stay better hydrated.  Straight water does wonders for the body, too, but it lacks the vitamins and other trace minerals that your body needs to stay in proper balance.

After getting extremely sick to the point of late heat exhaustion symptoms (even after drinking over a 1/2 gallon of water), I know that water needs added vitamins and electrolytes to keep you running at your best and to prevent you from getting sick.  Propel offers you a variety of vitamins to help ensure that you get those, and by adding an additional powder packet that contains trace minerals, you’ll be well on your way to staying healthy.  Propel is also available in liquid or powder form, so you can always add it to your water later on, too.
