Sodium (500mg)
Sodium plays a pivotal role in hydration. It increases fluid absorption, fluid retention, maintains electrolyte balance and stimulates thirst, thus increasing fluid intake. Research shows that drinks containing sodium can improve endurance, mood, and reaction times, whilst reducing the risk of cramps and hyponatremia.

Magnesium is imperative for over 300 enzymatic reactions, including those that produce and use ATP, the body's energy currency. It aids hydration by moving water into cells, essential for muscle function, energy, and performance.

Potassium works closely with sodium to maintain normal cellular fluid balance, nerve impulses, and muscle contractions. Potassium chloride specifically may counteract the effects of too much sodium, maintaining a healthy electrolyte balance.

When To Use Core 500
Core 500 can be used any time of the day.
We are generally more dehydrated upon waking, so you may find some benefit to consuming Core 500 first thing in the morning.
We also suggest that you use Core 500 30 minutes before, during, or immediately after high intensity training to replace the fluids and electrolytes lost in sweat.
For maximum efficacy, we recommend that you mix one sachet with 500ml-1L/16-32OZ of water.
Frequently Asked Questions
What electrolytes do Core 500 Sachets contain?
Core 500 Sachets contain three key electrolytes in bioavailable forms: Sodium (as salt/sodium chloride), Potassium (as potassium chloride), and Magnesium (as marine magnesium citrate), scientifically formulated to optimise hydration, and improve mental and physical performance.
How quickly can I rehydrate with Core 500?
You can fully rehydrate within 30 minutes with sufficient fluid and electrolytes.
Check out our article on hydration strategies to find out more.
Why is hydration with Core 500 better than drinking plain water?
Exercising at moderate to high intensities can result in significant electrolyte losses and electrolyte imbalances, which can negatively impact mental and physical performance. Water alone is not able to replace those electrolytes. Core 500 electrolyte sachets are specifically designed to rapidly restore electrolyte balance and optimise cellular hydration.
How should I take Core 500 Sachets?
We recommend that you add 1 sachet to 500ml-1L of water.
Are Core 500 Sachets suitable for those on a vegan diet?
Core 500 Sachets are vegan, making them suitable for those on a plant-based diet.
Are Core 500 Sachets suitable for those on a keto diet?
Core 500 Sachets contain 0g of carbohydrates, making them suitable for those on a ketogenic diet.
How many servings of Core 500 can I have in a day?
Individual electrolyte requirements vary significantly. They are dependent upon factors such as sweat rate, sweat electrolyte composition, activity levels, training intensity, environmental conditions and more.
It is important to note that Core 500 is meant to supplement your electrolyte intake; it should not be your sole source of electrolytes.
A well balanced daily diet is likely to provide a significant amount of your electrolyte requirements and we highly recommend a food-first approach. However, you can supplement with 1-4 sachets per day, depending on your activity level. For any specific guidance on daily salt and electrolytes intake, you should consult your doctor.
Additionally, if you are pregnant or nursing, taking any prescription medications or have any pre-existing medical conditions, please consult a medical professional before consumption and use only as directed.
