ReHydrate
HYDRATION = WATER + ELECTROLYTES!!
Electrolytes are essential to our health.
They help our body absorb water and control fluid balance. Although drinking water during exercise is critical to avoid dehydration, drinking plain water that is not fortified with electrolytes can lead to a serious condition called hyponatremia. Hyponatremia occurs when blood sodium concentration falls to extremely low levels, which can result in seizures, coma, and even death. Electrolytes not only prevent dehydration, but they're critical to muscle function, nerve conduction, energy production and flow, and heart function. For the endurance athlete, a major benefit of electrolytes is that they help prevent muscle cramps, which can impede performance.
Athletes must be careful to avoid a shortage of electrolytes during training: Loss of electrolytes through sweat must be replaced, but most sports drink and electrolyte replacement supplements, powders, and gels ignore the fact that the body also uses an additional balance of minerals beyond sodium and potassium. One essential electrolyte is magnesium, which is necessary for energy production, muscle contraction, cardiovascular and respiratory function. Another important reason athletes need to supplement with a balance of electrolytes is that if minerals (electrolytes) become depleted, negative effects like cramping occur. Magnesium—not sodium—can help prevent muscle cramps. Studies show that the body needs up to 70 minerals to function correctly.
Sweat contains more than sodium and potassium: While sodium and potassium are two important elements in sweat, they are not the only ones. Sweat also contains magnesium, chloride, and many other trace minerals.
It is better to replace electrolytes throughout activity: The best way to replace electrolytes is in moderated quantities every time you drink, not in short, concentrated bursts.
Sugar-laden sports drinks can be overwhelming: While carbohydrates are necessary for the body to manufacture energy, drinking sugar in every gulp fatigues the palette, causes nausea and bloating, and, in some instances, provides more calories than is necessary. ReHydrate maximizes every squeeze from your water bottle because it provides only what your body needs and nothing extra to weigh you down.
ReHydrate is the only electrolyte fully compatible with all hydration systems: Unlike sports drinks or electrolyte-replacement powders or gels, ReHydrate can be added to your hydration system without the sticky stuff to clean up when you’re done. ReHydrate requires no more cleanup for your pack than plain water.
Adding ReHydrate to water creates instant and effective hydration during long rides, hikes or races. ReHydrate only contains electrolytes and nothing else; the essential components needed to be able to recover faster after an extensive physical routine.
"Maximum Hydration = Maximum Performance"
Testimonial: What we like about ReHydrate is the simplicity of the product, it’s natural ingredients, and it’s delivery system. ReHydrate offers electrolytes with nothing else added in a liquid form. Just add a serving to your water bottle and you’re ready to go. If you just want electrolytes with no added taste, ReHydatre is the way to go, especially if you don’t like carrying pills and keeping track of them while training or racing.
