SaltStick Caps – Buffered Electrolyte Capsules Matched to Sweat Loss
SaltStick Caps are vegetarian electrolyte capsules formulated to replace the specific minerals your body loses through sweat. Each capsule delivers sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium in a ratio designed to mirror actual sweat composition, plus 100 IU of Vitamin D to support calcium absorption. The buffered formula is easy on the stomach, which matters when you're an hour deep into a run or a long shift in the heat.
Key Benefits
- Electrolyte ratios matched to sweat — Each capsule provides 215 mg sodium, 63 mg potassium, 22 mg calcium, and 11 mg magnesium, reflecting what your body actually loses rather than a generic electrolyte blend.
- Reduced muscle cramping — Replacing key electrolytes during activity helps minimise cramping linked to dehydration and prolonged exertion.
- Heat stress support — Maintaining electrolyte balance helps your body manage heat load, which is useful in warm conditions or during sustained physical output.
- No stomach discomfort — The buffered formula is designed to sit well, so you're not trading cramps for nausea mid-activity.
- Vitamin D included — 100 IU per capsule supports calcium absorption, which plays a direct role in muscle and bone function.
Why Capsules Work Better Than Drinks Alone
Most sports drinks load up on sodium and sugar but under-deliver on potassium, calcium, and magnesium. SaltStick Caps give you precise electrolyte replacement without relying on flavoured drinks to get there. You control hydration with water; the capsule handles the mineral side. A study published in the Scandinavian Journal of Medicine & Science in Sports supports the performance benefits of this approach to electrolyte replacement.
Directions for Use
Take 1 capsule with water every 30–60 minutes during physical activity.

FAQs
How are SaltStick Caps different from a standard electrolyte drink?
Most electrolyte drinks prioritise sodium and carbohydrates, while SaltStick Caps deliver a four-mineral profile (sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium) in ratios that closely match sweat composition. They work alongside water rather than replacing it, giving you more control over intake during long sessions.
Will these cause stomach issues?
The formula is buffered specifically to reduce the risk of stomach discomfort, which is a common issue with high-sodium supplements taken during exercise. Taking each capsule with water as directed helps further.
Can I take SaltStick Caps if I compete in tested sport?
Yes. SaltStick Caps are Informed Choice certified, meaning they are regularly tested through an accredited process to give competitive athletes added confidence in the product.
