Next up to discuss is
Lemon Lime, Blackberry Currant
O2 Oxygenated Recovery (15 calories – 14g/0g/0g. I know this math is weird). The two flavors we offer are both caffeine-free.
This is one of the newer players on the market, and in our fitness space. O2 is basically a hydration drink based off of a formula molded off of an IV drip, claiming 50% more electrolytes than leading sports drinks. It also contains seven times the oxygen as water to increase “your body’s ability to process toxins and accelerates recovery”. Also made in the USA.
Since it’s got a very short list of things inside the can I like this one a lot. I don’t like how they changed the size on us. Hmph.
When should I drink it?
- Anytime you need hydration, especially since there is no caffeine content, but their site says post-workout. That said it does contain 15 total calories so be mindful if watching your intake.
- These are not replacements for plain water, but if you want a nice kick of electrolytes then these will do you well!
What’s in it?
Oxygenated water (duh), Erythritol, Sodium Citrate, Organic sugar, Malic acid, Monopotassium phosphate, Natural flavors, Citric acid, Stevia extract, and Monk fruit extract. Smallest list of ingredients but the need makes sense for those who like simplicity.
