Who are electrolytes for?
Anyone who sweats more than usual: a long workout, the sauna, a hot summer day, physical work or travelling. Water alone does not replace the minerals lost in sweat. Magnesium contributes to electrolyte balance and to normal muscle function; potassium contributes to normal muscle function, to normal functioning of the nervous system and to the maintenance of normal blood pressure. More background: Fluid balance, the nervous system and magnesium – the underrated importance of electrolytes.
Which powder should you choose?
The unflavoured powder is our bestseller – you can mix it into water or a smoothie, or even sprinkle it on food, and dose it precisely. The flavoured versions (lemon, raspberry-strawberry, mango, green apple) are handy for your training bottle and tend to go down better with kids. None of them contain added sugar.
How to use
One scoop in 500 ml of water – before, during or after a workout, the sauna or a long day in the heat. On an ordinary office day you don't need electrolytes; water and your usual diet are enough.
Frequently asked questions
Can I take electrolytes every day?
On days when you sweat, yes. On an ordinary day without exercise it isn't necessary – you already get plenty of sodium from food.
Does the electrolyte powder contain sugar?
No. Puhdas+ electrolytes contain no added sugar and no artificial colours.
Are electrolytes suitable for sauna-goers?
Yes – the sauna is one of the biggest sources of sweating. A glass of electrolyte drink before or after the sauna helps replace the fluid and minerals you lose in sweat.
What is the difference between electrolytes and a sports drink?
Shop-bought sports drinks usually contain lots of sugar and few minerals. Electrolyte powder is the opposite: minerals first, no added sugar.
Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. Keep out of the reach of children.
Electrolytes — mineral balance for athletes and active individuals
Electrolytes are essential minerals for the body — magnesium, calcium, potassium, sodium and chloride — which participate in regulating fluid balance, muscle function and nerve impulse transmission. During sweating and intense physical activity, the body loses electrolytes, making their replenishment important.
Puhdas+ electrolyte powder contains all essential electrolytes in the right ratio. Magnesium contributes to normal muscle function and helps to reduce tiredness and fatigue. Calcium contributes to normal muscle function. The powder has a lemon flavor and dissolves easily in water.
When to consume electrolytes?
Electrolyte powder is particularly suitable during and after training, in hot weather, when traveling and whenever the body loses fluids. Suitable for both athletes and people living an active lifestyle. Also check out our sports supplements, amino acids and functional drinks selection.
