GOOD THINGS COME TO
THOSE WHO SWEAT
made by people who sweat, for people who sweat
Sweat can be rejuvenating. Imagine the afterglow of a hard workout, or the glisten of being outdoors.
Or, it can be debilitating. Push too hard, and you could be left with exhaustion and a pounding headache
Our goal is to help you enjoy more of the first kind.
We do that by being the fastest and most convenient way to replace electrolytes on the go.
Almost 20 years ago, Jonathan Toker noticed a problem. So, like many entrepreneurs, he created the solution himself: SaltStick.
As a professional athlete and heavy sweater, Jonathan needed to replenish electrolytes during his training sessions.
Jonathan's day job as a Ph.D chemist gave him access to the latest medical literature on hydration. Science showed most people's sweat contains a similar ratio of electrolytes across sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium.
OUR PRODUCT PHILOSOPHY
Our goal is to provide a faster, nore convenient way to replenish the electrolytes you lose in your sweat
But when he compared the electrolyte breakdown of products on the market (methodically, in a spreadsheet, as any good scientist would), he realized non of them delivered this ratio. Some options had too much potassium, while others didn't have enough. Others didn't contain crucial minerals like calcium and magnesium at all.
Not to mention, sports drinks were too bulky to carry around, and powders were messy.
