Electrolytes are minerals that gain an electric charge when they dissolve in water. The most well-known are sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium and chloride. They are naturally found in many foods and in drinks such as mineral water.
An effervescent tablet is a tablet that dissolves in water and starts to fizz. This is due to a reaction between citric acid and sodium bicarbonate, which releases carbon dioxide. This creates a lightly sparkling drink.
Electrolytes are found in many everyday foods. Sodium is mainly found in salt and salty products; potassium in bananas, potatoes and vegetables; magnesium in nuts, seeds and whole grain products; and calcium in dairy and green leafy vegetables.
Many athletes use an electrolyte drink during longer or intensive workouts, during competitions or when exercising in hot weather. You can use Effer-Hydrate whenever suits you best, for example before, during or after exercise. Do not take more than 1 tablet per day.
Effer-Hydrate is made for adult athletes of all levels, from recreational runners and cyclists to dedicated athletes who train regularly.
A ready-made sports drink is usually bought in a bottle and often contains more sugar. An electrolyte tablet you dissolve yourself in water. This is light to carry with you, and you prepare your drink only when you need it.
After dissolving, natural granules may still be visible in the water. According to NOW Foods, this is normal and does not affect the quality.
