Pocari Sweat is a must in our bike group specially when we do long bike rides (100+km) and specially during the summer. Nice video! I didn't know too that there is a powder type, will definitely check on it and buy one. Thanks GA!
The Pocari Sweat sachet is convenient when you’re cycling. It’s light and compact to carry at your back jersey pocket. Then you can just buy cold water and mix it in your bottle. Not all sari-sari store would have a Gatorade or Pocari in stock.
always loved pocari, been drinking it since 2010. its origins start in japan and is sold both in japan and the middle eastern market to alleviate the marketable dominance of Gatorade in the west. fun fact : the idea of the creation of pocari started when an Otsuka Pharmaceutical employee observed a doctor drink IV solution to rehydrate.
That's an interesting tidbit, thanks for sharing :) I think a lot of people would find the taste of gatorade more friendly, at least at the first sip. But for me, once I got used to the taste of Pocari sweat, it really became my preference.
@Gadget Addict comfortable tastes are influenced by cultural norms. Gatorade wasn't as popular in the middle East so everyone gravitated towards pocari. I love both tbh can't pick 1 over the other
I'm a heavy Sweating guy, and in work I dehydrate my self working so I had to have 2 bottle's 1lr water + 1 or 2 water per work shift = 4 liter's of water per 12 hrs or work. One of my Nurse Cousin's have warned me on getting Gatorade as the sugar level is too high to be normal to give some boosh or remove hang overs. Now I make my own electrolytes and diet Meals with a blender.
That's probably one of the best options if you're going to be using something on a daily basis. At least you know exactly what's in it, and you can cater it to your specific needs 🤷♂️
I checked their website and they really make Pocari Sweat in powder form. I just bought a single pack for 10L for 550 pesos. It is really cost effective if you bought in large packs.
Had tasted pocari sweat& ur hydrite rehydration salts is also a part of my medic bag-it serves its purpose specially if u’ll be on LBM,the electrolytes will help ur body just like gatorade..tnx GA for ur pocari sweat sachet blog:)
I just ordered some of the bottled stuff. I have heard about it for years as a closet weeb. Saw it was finally on amazon and decided to order a case. I did also see the powder but I want to try the original first. But the powder is a little off putting considering how much there is for such little water.
I have not tried Pocari Sweat because every time I visit the grocery and look at the price...yeah, too expensive. I thought might as well go for the tried and tested Gatorade although even this drink is too expensive now a days.
That's a new one.. I've never heard of someone giving this type of drink to their cat lol. I hope it was just a quick taste and that your cat isn't really drinking it 🙈
Hydrite follows the WHO recommendation for oral rehydration salts if I am not mistaken. For Pocari Sweat, it has more sugar content which is at 11g while the former is around 3g.
🙋♀️💙💙 I have a different question I still cannot understand the motorcycle Laine and I don't know why. Last week I went down the side of one of those trucks Elbow out and popped out the other end, In the motorcycle laine,....... Maybe it was just one of those rough Weaks

Pro tip. Add the powder to a cold glass of sparkling water.
I'll try it out. Thanks for the tip.

This brand is not in India, but we get many others. They are called by generic name = ORS (Oral rehydration solution) or Electrolyte.

Interesting... time to go to my nearby 7/11 store neat.
I never knew that they make those in powder form.
Picture quality looks crisp. What camera are you using to shoot your content?

We are using pocari powder in Dubai during summer in 2008.
How was the cost of it in Dubai?
Nice 👍
it tastes like buko juice from a buko vendor with rusty..i mean dark machete :)
With out glass one
weird. my cat seem to like pocari sweat...
That's a new one.. I've never heard of someone giving this type of drink to their cat lol. I hope it was just a quick taste and that your cat isn't really drinking it 🙈
@@GadgetAddict gives the cat energy, like it had a catnip... i've seen other cats drink worse tho, like pool water with bleach
Where did you buy it?

Saw these as powder in lazada
Pocari soliden. Finte in market with out glaas one
Hot water? Cool water?
I added cool water. I haven't tried it with hot water.
Of course unless your an an athlete training very hard this type of drink is pointless..
It's actually also good when you're sick.
Is that chinese pack from china?, just asking..
Developed in Japan. Manufactured in Indonesia
Got curious, rather than water, use carbonated water 😁😁
I'll try it out :D
I thought it's the same with Extra Joss 🙂
Nope. Quite different 👍
Is get lices. Are.
buhay ka pala

Yikes! If thats the case then nah, i'll pass.
It's not made in China.
Developed in Japan. Manufactured in Indonesia.
