What are electrolytes?
Electrolytes are essential minerals, and Thirsti Sport is packed with them! They help to regulate bodily fluids, maintain normal blood pressure, and support muscle and nerve function.
- Potassium is a powerhouse that helps every cell in the body use glucose for energy. Without sufficient potassium, muscles get tired sooner, reflexes are slower, and the body can become shaky.
- Magnesium promotes healthy cell function. It helps muscles use oxygen and glucose – making it critical for strength and endurance.
- Calcium regulates muscle contractions, allowing increased intensity and duration of exercise.
- Sodium balances fluids in the body and it influences blood pressure. It helps to send nerve impulses and it is needed for muscle contractions.

Frequently asked questions
What are the benefits of drinking electrolytes?
When should I drink electrolytes?
What is the best sports drink to replace electrolytes?
The best sports drinks help athletes maintain both a healthy electrolyte balance, and stable blood glucose levels through carbs. Thirsti Sport has been expertly crafted to hydrate athletes during extended periods of physical activity.
What do professional athletes drink?
Professional athletes drink many different products such as protein drinks, alkaline water, and other sports drink alternatives. Thirsti Sport is an electrolyte-fuelled sports drink that athletes drink to rehydrate themselves during long periods of exercise.
What is the quickest way to rehydrate your body?
Dietitians say drinking water is generally the best (and cheapest) way to remain hydrated. Water contains no added sugars or calories, making it ideal to drink throughout the day. However, during a workout, important electrolytes can be lost through sweat and rehydrating with a sports drink, such as Thirsti Sport, is ideal to replenish those important minerals such as sodium and potassium.
Should athletes drink electrolytes or water?
The short answer is both. For daily hydration, plain water, which is carb- and sugar-free, is best. During training and long periods of physical exercise, electrolytes need to be replaced and sports drinks, like Thirsti Sport, are the ideal choice to rehydrate.
Can I take electrolytes at night?
You can drink electrolyte drinks at night for rehydration but because Thirsti Sport is designed to give you an energy boost it may not be desirable to drink it just before you want to sleep.
