SaltStick Caps replace the key electrolytes you lose in sweat, including sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium, which helps avoid fatigue and muscle cramps due to dehydration.
An independent study published in the Scandinavian Journal of Medicine & Science in Sports found athletes who replaced at least 50% of sodium lost through sweat with SaltStick Caps finished a 70.3-mile triathlon an average of 26 minutes faster than athletes who did not supplement electrolytes.
1. How do I take SaltStick Electrolyte Capsules?
Swallow one capsule with water every 30–60 minutes during physical activity. Your needs may vary based on factors such as your sweat rate, exercise intensity, duration, and environmental conditions.
SaltStick Capsules may also be taken before activity or as part of your post-workout nutrition plan.
2. Can I combine SaltStick Capsules with SaltStick Capsules + Caffeine?
Yes. You can alternate between SaltStick Capsules and SaltStick Capsules + Caffeine to help manage your total caffeine intake. For example, some athletes use the non-caffeinated capsules earlier in an event and switch to the caffeinated version later.
3. Can I take SaltStick Capsules with a sports drink?
Yes. SaltStick Capsules can be taken with water or a sports drink.
When combining them with a sports drink, be sure to account for the drink’s electrolyte content as part of your overall hydration and nutrition plan.
4. Do I need to drink water with SaltStick Capsules?
We recommend swallowing SaltStick Capsules with water or another beverage. This generally makes capsules easier and more comfortable to swallow.
Electrolytes do not replace the fluids you lose through sweat, so regular fluid intake should remain part of your hydration plan. Your fluid needs will vary based on your activity, sweat rate, weather conditions, and other individual factors.
5. Can I open SaltStick Capsules and mix the powder into a drink?
Yes. You can open SaltStick Capsules and mix the contents into water or a sports drink.
The powder has a naturally salty taste and may not dissolve completely. Be sure to consume the entire drink to receive the full contents of the capsule.
6. Can I chew a SaltStick Capsule or open it directly in my mouth?
We don’t recommend it. Opening a capsule directly in your mouth will produce a strong, salty taste and may be less comfortable than taking it as directed.
7. How quickly do SaltStick Capsules work?
The timing of digestion and absorption varies by person and can be affected by factors such as exercise intensity, food intake, and fluid intake. For best results, take SaltStick Capsules consistently throughout activity according to the directions on the product label rather than waiting until you feel depleted.
8. How should I store SaltStick Capsules?
Store SaltStick Capsules tightly closed in a cool, dry place. Protect them from moisture, heat, and prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
