accelerade taste gas etc bloating etc etc
i thought i would try accelerade,,,,,, my opinio today is it seems frothy and has a bad aftertaste. i used it on a 28 mile ride and it seemed ok. so today on a 91 miler i used it. am i the only one that has ha dthis expierence. it made me bloaty i had to lay in the floor when i got home. kept having gas on the ride and the aftertaste was gassy. i also thought that while cleaning my bottles it smelled err may i say bad belch gassy smell. i was using a drink that was greta i just wanted to get away from the koolaid taste. anyone had this same exp?

No, but i have found that if it gets hot, then the enjoyment of the drink decreases dramatically. It does get a bit frothy if shaken alot too.

accelerade is better if mixed the night before and left in the frig overnight. experiment with the dissolution ratio. full dose + warm weather = vomit taste and bloating, you are right on. but it works for me when i use it.
