[Sca-cooks] RE: Sugar free sports drink alternative

[John Kemker]

Alacer (http://www.alacercorp.com) Electro-MIX has no sugars or 
substitutes, unless you consider Chromium aspartate the substitute.  It 
has no warning concerning "Phenylketonurics" or other phenylalanine 
warnings.

I've used it.  Have a box sitting right here on my desk.  It's not sweet 
at all.  It's tart.  Puckery.  Very satisfying when I'm extremely 
thirsty and need to rehydrate quickly.  As a diabetic, it's been my 
"sports drink" of choice.

Their web site says the ingredients are "Citric Acid, Potassium 
Bicarbonate, Calcium, Magnesium and Potassium Carbonates, Malic Acid, 
Magnesium hydroxide, Manganese Gluconate, Chromium Aspartate, Natural 
Flavors."
