We suggest consulting with your child’s physician prior to use.

Our tablet products (Nuun Sport, Nuun Vitamins, Nuun Immunity, Nuun Rest) contain small amounts of both carbs and sugar. We use 1-2 gram of dextrose (d-glucose) to help increase the rate of fluid and nutrient delivery. Dextrose is high on the glycemic index (GI), but the minimal amount of dextrose in our tablet products will have a little to no impact on blood sugar. We recommended consulting with your physician with any additional questions or concerns.

Most of the nutrients in Nuun are water-soluble, any excessive consumption will be excreted through urine. However, some of our products contain over 300mg of sodium.
