OrangeFit Hydrate Lemon Orange 300 g

An electrolyte powder to stir into your water bottle, with a lemon and orange flavor. Seven grams in half a liter of water.

Why it works

Water alone does not replenish what you lose through sweat. For that, you also need the salts it contains. One serving provides 800 mg of sodium, 320 mg of potassium, 75 mg of magnesium, and 1090 mg of chloride.

Magnesium contributes to electrolyte balance, normal muscle function, and helps reduce tiredness and fatigue. Potassium contributes to normal muscle function.

It contains virtually no sugar: three kilocalories per serving, sweetened with steviol glycosides from stevia. The powder is vegan and free from lactose, cow's milk, gluten, and soy.

For whom

For anyone who sweats: during exercise, in the heat, in the sauna, or after a long day on your feet. It's also great for those who struggle to drink enough water, as flavor helps more than you might think.

How to use it

One 7-gram scoop in 500 ml of water, shake well. Drink it during or after your exertion, in small sips rather than all at once. A 300-gram tub is enough for approximately 43 servings.

What I'd like you to know

This is not a sports drink with sugars that provides you with energy; it only replenishes what you lose. You don't need it for an hour of light exercise; plain water is sufficient then.

Where I do find it useful is during long efforts in the heat, and on those days when you notice yourself that you simply aren't drinking enough. Keep the tub next to your water bottle rather than in the cupboard—it makes a difference.
