When to Choose Gnarly Nutrition Hydrate
Competitive athletes who need NSF certification and zero-sugar clean ingredients
Gnarly Hydrate checks the boxes for competitive athletes: NSF Certified for Sport, zero sugar, monk fruit sweetened, and solid electrolyte ratios. The taste won't please everyone, but the clean formula and certification make it a strong choice for anyone subject to drug testing.
Strengths
- NSF Certified for Sport — safe for competitive athletes subject to drug testing
- Zero sugar with no artificial sweeteners — uses monk fruit extract
- Good electrolyte balance with 200mg sodium, 250mg potassium per serving
Limitations
- Monk fruit taste can be polarizing — some find it has a slight aftertaste
- Less widely available in retail stores compared to mainstream brands
- Resealable bag format can clump in humid conditions
When to Choose Momentous Fuel
Competitive athletes who need NSF-certified fuel with carbohydrates for endurance training
Momentous Fuel is a premium intra-workout formula designed for serious athletes. The NSF Certified for Sport designation and carbohydrate-electrolyte blend make it ideal for prolonged training, but the high price and carb content limit its appeal for casual hydration.
Strengths
- NSF Certified for Sport — trusted by professional athletes and tested for banned substances
- Includes carbohydrate blend for sustained energy during prolonged exercise
- Developed with input from sports scientists and used by elite teams
Limitations
- Most expensive per serving (~$2.60) in this comparison
- Contains 25g carbs per serving — not suitable for keto or low-carb diets
- Only 15 servings per jar means frequent reordering
