HASTA ELECTROLYTE

Electrolytes are minerals which carry an electric charge when dissolved in liquids such as blood. The human body needs this charge to carry out physiological processes such as muscle and nerve function, hydration regulation and PH balance.

Your body needs a mix of minerals such as sodium, magnesium and potassium to function. The delicate balance of electrolytes can be thrown off when an excess of fluids is lost from events such as physical activity, drinking alcohol, vomiting and diarrhoea or certain medications. Electrolyte imbalances can cause nausea, exhaustion and fluid retention.

True Electrolyte restores the balance of electrolytes to your body through its optimal ratio of sodium, magnesium and potassium. This ensures you are well hydrated and your body can continue to perform at its physical peak, whether you are in the midst of physical activity or even a tough day at work.

Electrolytes are delivered to your blood via a process called osmosis, which is the movement of water in and out of the cells. Many alternative electrolyte formulas on the market are isotonic or hypertonic solutions. Isotonic solutions are in equilibrium with their surroundings, meaning there is no significant movement of water in or out of the cells. Hypertonic solutions have a higher solute concentration, causing water to move out of cells and actually dehydrating you, which can result in gastric distress. True’s Electrolyte is a hypotonic solution, meaning it has a lower concentration of dissolved particles and can be absorbed by the gut walls faster than isotonic and hypertonic formulas or even water alone.

As all humans need an ideal electrolyte balance to survive, True Electrolyte is a product suitable for anyone. However, it is particularly beneficial before, during or after times of physical exertion when fluids are quickly lost.

When using in conjunction with exercise, True Electrolyte can be taken prior to, during or after your session or event. For alternative uses, consume as needed.

True Electrolyte is a hypotonic solution which facilitates optimal gastric emptying (is gentle on the stomach) and ensures that you do not feel full or heavy and can focus performing at your peak.

Fuel & Electrolyte should not be used simultaneously. If using both prior to strenuous sustained exercise, the optimal use would be be to consume Fuel prior to the session, followed by Electrolyte after the event has concluded to assist with regaining hydration.

The key ingredients and specific dosages in both True Fuel and True Electrolyte are based on months of researching and reviewing scientific literature to ensure the products perform where you need them most. Although True Electrolyte contains some carbohydrate in the form of Palatinose™ as well as premium electrolytes, the dosage is purely for the purpose of fast and effective rehydration or maintaining adequate hydration. If you require an energy source to fuel a strenuous training session or event where you also want to prevent catabolism, then True Fuel is the preferred choice.
