All of the electrolyte tablets we taste tested on the market, when dissolved, tasted like drinking weak squash, where’s the fun in drinking that!? Instead you want a tasty, fruity, thirst quencher of a drink that helps you keep performing and optimises your hydration and recovery. So we took what is a simple formula and made it taste AWESOME. And because it’s a powder, you can easily switch up the dose if needed.

Add 1½ x 10ml scoops (9g) to 500-800ml of water.Mix well; the product will settle if left to sit. Take when training or playing sport, in hot conditions, or when sweating heavily. Can be consumed regularly throughout the day in hot conditions. Do not consume more than 2 servings per day. Tropical and Orange flavours may cause staining to bottlers or containers if left standing.

Replenishing lost fluid and electrolytes from prolonged exercise is crucial to avoid dehydration and to aid recovery. Whilst adding carbohydrates is a good idea for exercise lasting longer than 90 minutes to fuel muscular contractions, glucose actually slows the absorption of water, as described here. For exercise longer than 30 minutes, but less than 90 minutes, replenishing fluids lost through sweating and heavy breathing can be achieved with an electrolyte drink containing sodium and potassium. 

This small double-blind study shows that 10 days of magnesium supplementation can increase perceived recovery, decrease perceived muscle soreness and decrease rate of perceived exertion, demonstrating magnesium as a useful electrolyte for performance and recovery, hence we use it in our formula.
