Tested not to contain any banned substances
SaltStick Caps and Fastchews contain a balanced and buffered mixture of the electrolytes that are lost in sweat, in a ratio and form that your body needs for optimal performance. The general guideline for supplementation has been successful for most athletes in a wide range of event distances and training durations. The basic idea is to keep your supplementation simple and effective, so you have one less thing to worry about on race day, and you can focus on the athletic event rather than on surviving your nutrition plan.
As a general guideline, athletes should consume 1-2 SaltStick Fastchews every 15-30 minutes or 1 SaltStick Capsule per 30-60 minutes during any land-based activity (bike/run) for the duration of the activity. In hot conditions, extreme humidity, or for larger athletes, a greater number of tablets may be needed to maintain safe electrolyte levels. The addition of SaltStick Caps or SaltStick Caps Plus can be an effective means to further supplement. The maximum number of tablets recommended per day is 50, although athletes in extreme conditions and longer events may find it necessary to exceed this number, or to combine intake with SaltStick Caps. It is strongly recommended to test your planned electrolyte protocol in training several times before race day.
It should be stressed that every athlete sweats differently, reacts to heat and humidity differently, and reacts to the stress of a race or training differently. What this means to the athlete in particular is the importance of testing one’s electrolyte replacement strategy in training, prior to race day. Listening to your body prior to and during an event is also key, so you can adapt your electrolyte plan accordingly. Being flexible and keeping your plan simple will give you the best chance of success.
Dissolving tablets into water bottles
Some athletes may find it convenient to drop some tablets into a water bottle and shaking well. However, unlike effervescent tablets that are specifically designed to create a sports drink in this way, SaltStick Fastchews were designed to be consumed by eating directly, as you would with a candy or sweet.
Suggested use: 2 tablets per 15-30 minutes during activity
Each serving (2 tablets) contains: 100 mg sodium, 30 mg potassium, 10 mg calcium, 6 mg magnesium.
Also great for youth sports, travel rehydration, tennis and other sports, camping & hiking, effects of alcohol.
What is lost in sweat should be replaced by your electrolyte supplement in a manner in which your body can absorb. Only SaltStick Caps and Fastchews do this in a single product. SaltStick products have been formulated to allow your body to absorb the electrolyte content in the suggested serving of 1-2 tablets per 15-30 minutes, taken with or without water.
