My go-to method for resort skiing over the last couple of seasons is chugging a big glass of electrolytes before hitting the slopes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Health sources everywhere are pushing the idea of

minerals can lead to hyperhydration, which brings health risks of its own and annoying issues that interfere with a powder day.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-15\" style=\"margin: 8px

key summer activity in my hometown of Breckenridge, Colorado, which sits at an elevation of 9,600 feet.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>As when skiing or riding, I\u2019ve developed a unique aversion to pedaling with a backpack on, so I try to pre-hydrate and carry only one bottle of water on the bike.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Usually slogging up and down singletrack with a friend or four \u2013 all hard-charging badasses \u2013 I often ended long rides with an exertion headache.<\/strong> Thus, the experimentation began \u2013 trying various electrolyte powders in my water bottle \u2013 to see if there was some sort of preemptive remedy. Some of these drink mixes, especially compared with straight-up H20, were so saccharin I gagged with every sip. Others were unnaturally salty, also causing stomach cringe. Only one or two slightly helped in mitigating the headaches. There was one standout, however, that not only served that end, but genuinely seems to keep me energized throughout every ride.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Pure Ingredients and Smart Carbs<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/nakednutrition.com\/products\/electrolytes-powder\">NakedAde<\/a> is an electrolyte mix by <a href=\"https:\/\/nakednutrition.com\/\">Naked Nutrition<\/a>, which launched in 2014 with the goal of producing supplements and products (protein powders, shakes, multi-vitamins, nut butters, etc.) made from only pure ingredients.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cThe idea behind NakedAde is the same as the rest of our line \u2013 keep it simple and skip the junk in most sports drinks.<\/strong> It starts with Palatinose, a low-glycemic carb from sugar beets, so you get steadier energy instead of a spike and crash,\u201d says Naked Nutrition\u2019s Ryan O\u2019Connor. \u201cThere\u2019s 285 milligrams of potassium per serving to replace what you lose in sweat, and the flavors come from things like juice, sea salt, and monk fruit, not artificial sweeteners.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_427909\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-427909\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" class=\"size-full wp-image-427909 lazyload\" src=\"image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAoAAAAGlAQMAAABQitV4AAAABlBMVEUAAAD\/\/\/+l2Z\/dAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAADhJREFUeNrtwTEBAAAAwqD1T20Gf6AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAOA4U1AAFo\/yvVAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC\" alt=\"NakedAde\" width=\"640\" height=\"421\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/snowbrains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/NakedAde3.Naked_.jpg?resize=640%2C421&amp;ssl=1\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/snowbrains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/NakedAde3.Naked_.jpg?w=800&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/snowbrains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/NakedAde3.Naked_.jpg?resize=300%2C197&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/snowbrains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/NakedAde3.Naked_.jpg?resize=768%2C505&amp;ssl=1 768w\" data-max-width=\"640\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-eio-rwidth=\"640\" data-eio-rheight=\"421\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" class=\"size-full wp-image-427909\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/snowbrains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/NakedAde3.Naked_.jpg?resize=640%2C421&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"NakedAde\" width=\"640\" height=\"421\" data-eio=\"l\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-427909\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">NakedAde by Naked Nutrition.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>In addition to the 285 mg of potassium, each NakedAde packet, designed to be mixed with eight to 16 ounces of water, has 60 calories and 14 grams of carbs (12 grams of sugar).<\/strong> They are vegan, GMO, gluten, soy and additive-free. Flavors include Blueberry Lemonade, Citrus, Strawberry Lemonade, Grape and Watermelon Mint.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For biking, I mix it in a 16-ounce water bottle.<\/strong> I find the flavors (I\u2019ve tried the Strawberry Lemonade, Watermelon Mint and Citrus) pleasantly subtle and not too sweet. There is a hint of salt, but it\u2019s not overpowering. One of NakedAde\u2019s most winning features from the start is that unlike just about every other electrolyte mix, the powder blends seamlessly without clumping or leaving residue at the bottom of the bottle. One bottle gets me through a two-to-three-hour ride. I\u2019m shocked at how refreshed I feel afterward. I suspect the impact will be similar on backcountry skiing adventures (when, sigh \u2026 I\u2019m forced to wear a backpack, and typically bring water\/electrolytes in a Nalgene bottle).<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Ideal for Year-Round Hydration on the Mountain <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Since deserting my hydration pack when resort skiing, if it\u2019s a deep powder day (I know an endless parade of them is coming this season \u2026 I feel it in my bones), there\u2019s no buzzkill like getting suddenly parched and needing to dip into the lodge to suck on a water fountain.<\/strong> To avoid this, I keep a soft water bottle in a pocket, which I plan to fill with NakedAde this season \u2026 after chugging one in the morning, of course.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Related: <\/strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/snowbrains.com\/the-effects-of-high-altitude-on-your-bodys-largest-organ-the-skin2\/\"><strong>The Effects of High Altitude on Your Body\u2019s Largest Organ: The Skin<\/strong><\/a><\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>While more anaerobic than mountain biking and involving less obvious sweating, lapping chairlifts on skis or a board is sneaky when it comes to draining hydration reserves.<\/strong> NakedAde\u2019s smart carb ingredient (Palatinose) with its energy-prolonging feature could potentially be even more helpful on the slopes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cFor winter sports that\u2019s useful because you\u2019re often out for hours, you\u2019re still sweating when it\u2019s cold, and you need something that hydrates without wrecking your stomach or your energy,\u201d O\u2019Connor said.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>I\u2019m eager to see how NakedAde helps keep me charging in that deep pow.<\/strong> For early season especially as my legs get dialed in (it\u2019s amazing how even something like mountain biking doesn\u2019t prepare the muscles for winter), I might try pairing NakedAde with <a href=\"https:\/\/nakednutrition.com\/collections\/creatine-supplements\">Naked Creatine<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/nakednutrition.com\/products\/bcaa\">BCAAs<\/a> for the added benefit of reducing muscle soreness.
