Hydration sticks
Tear the stick at the notch. Pour into 500ml of cool water. Stir or shake for a few seconds until it's fully dissolved, then drink.
Cold water dissolves it fine. Don't add it to hot drinks — the flavour goes flat.
When it helps most
- Before and during training, especially outdoors between May and September
- After a long drive, a flight, or a day in the sun
- When you've been on coffee and not much water
- With suhoor and after iftar during Ramadan
- The morning after a late night
How much
One stick a day suits most people. On a hard training day or in real heat, up to [MAX DAILY SERVINGS]. More than that is more sodium than you need.
Collagen
One sachet in water, coffee, tea or laban. Stir until dissolved. Once a day, at whatever time you'll actually remember.
Collagen works on consistency, not on dose spikes. Daily for eight to twelve weeks is the way to know whether it does anything for you.
Storage
Somewhere dry and out of direct sun. Sachets are fine in a gym bag or a car door for a day, but don't leave the carton in a parked car in July for a week.
Important
Food supplement. Not a substitute for a varied diet or for medical treatment. Keep out of reach of children. Do not exceed the stated daily amount. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking prescribed medication, or being treated for kidney, heart or blood pressure conditions, speak to your doctor before use.
