Carb + Electrolyte

Let’s be real: if you actually need electrolytes, you probably need carbs too. Sugar-free electrolyte drinks sound good on paper, but in most real training scenarios, the kind that make you sweat enough to lose meaningful sodium, you’re also burning through glycogen. Replacing one without the other just doesn’t make sense.

This product combines the two in research-backed amounts to help you keep going harder, for longer:

• 30g of fast-absorbing carbs in an optimal 2:1 glucose-to-fructose ratio for rapid energy delivery and glycogen replenishment.

• 430mg sodium + 120mg potassium to replace what’s lost in sweat and support muscle contraction.

• Informed Sport certified so you know it’s clean, banned-substance-free fuel.

Use it during training to sustain output and hydration, or after to recover faster and be ready for the next round. Perfect for endurance athletes, CrossFit and Hyrox competitors, team sport athletes, or lifters pushing long, high-volume sessions.

Because when the work is hard enough to need electrolytes, carbs aren’t optional.

1. Carbohydrates (30g, 2:1 Glucose:Fructose Ratio) – Carbohydrates are the body’s primary fuel during high-intensity and long-duration exercise. The 2:1 glucose-to-fructose ratio maximizes carbohydrate absorption and oxidation rates, allowing athletes to utilize up to ~90g/hour of carbs compared to ~60g/hour with glucose alone. This helps maintain blood glucose levels, delay glycogen depletion, and sustain performance in endurance, functional fitness, and team sport settings.

2. Sodium (430mg) – Sodium is the primary electrolyte lost in sweat and is essential for fluid balance, nerve transmission, and muscle contraction. Replacing sodium during or after prolonged or intense exercise helps maintain performance, prevents hyponatremia, and supports rapid rehydration. The amount in this product is based on average sweat sodium concentrations for athletes in real-world training conditions.

3. Potassium (120mg) – Potassium works alongside sodium to regulate fluid balance, nerve impulses, and muscle contractions. While potassium losses in sweat are lower than sodium, replenishment helps support overall electrolyte balance and may reduce muscle cramping risk in prolonged, high-sweat training sessions.

Why is Third Party Testing Important?

A recent 2023 review paper found that 15% of the 634 supplements tested contained non-disclosed anabolic steroids, and 9% contained banned stimulants. Link to the study: Prevalence of adulteration in dietary supplements and recommendations for safe supplement practices in sport - PMC (nih.gov)

Informed Sport Program

All Tier 1 Supplements products are batch-tested through the Informed Sport Program. Here are some details about the program: 

-Third-party testing organization, trusted by organizations such as the US Department of Defense, British Armed Forces, NFL, MLB, and UFC.

-Every product is required to be batch-tested. This means that no product gets to consumers without being tested for banned substances.

-Every batch is tested for over 250 compounds considered prohibited in sport and/or harmful to health. This includes substances like anabolic agents, stimulants, narcotics, beta-2 agonists, diuretics, and new/ emerging threats.
