Might not last long, but currently trying to avoid aspartame - I've come to believe that it was aspartame intake that was likely to be responsible for my brain tumour in the first place and for a recurrence of it last year.
So are there any aspartame free electrolyte drinks out there? I've tended to use powdered stuff like Lucozade sport on longer rides, and if I don't then usually end up cramped at the top of climbs. I'm riding the London to Paris ride next June and will be doing a fair bit of indoor training on the turbo and spinning classes so am thinking that keeping the fluid & electrolyte intake up will be quite important for the longer road rides at weekends.
Anyone out there use those Nuun tablets, do they have the dreaded aspartame in them? Or are there any handy home brew concotions that people use? I'd prefer the convienience of a none-home brew, but that depends if there is a none aspartame over the counter preparation.
