SaltStick Electrolytes Caps (4ct)

Open any endurance sports magazine, and you’ll see advertisements for products claiming to make you faster, stronger or have better endurance. It can be enticing, but when reading these assertions, it is important to examine the science behind them. Here at SaltStick, we deliver the facts behind our claims.

So when we say that SaltStick can help increase performance, we can back it up with a study from Spain, which found that salt supplementation via SaltStick Caps improved triathletes’ medium-distance race times by an average of 26 minutes! What is particularly compelling about these results is that many of these athletes were already consuming sports drinks, but it was the addition of the SaltStick Caps to their nutrition routine that made the difference in their performance.

As any triathlete worth their salt (pun intended!) knows, 26 minutes in a race is a sizable increase in speed, so if you are struggling to break a certain barrier in your endurance races, perhaps electrolyte supplementation is your answer. Read on for the particulars of this study, and note that SaltStick did not have any connection to the study in the form of counseling researchers, sponsoring or funding the study, or providing the product used in the study.
