Hydration & Electrolytes: FAQ's
Are electrolytes better than water?
Water is essential, but during exercise or heavy sweating, electrolytes help your body absorb and retain that water more effectively.
Do I need electrolytes if I don't exercise?
If you live in a hot climate, work outdoors, sweat heavily or struggle to stay hydrated, electrolyte supplements may still be beneficial.
Can you drink electrolytes every day?
Yes. Many active people include electrolytes as part of their daily hydration routine, particularly during warmer months or periods of increased activity.
What's the best electrolyte drink?
The best electrolyte drink replaces the minerals lost through sweat without excessive sugar or unnecessary ingredients. Look for products containing sodium, potassium, magnesium and calcium.
