A meticulously crafted blend of three research-supported electrolytes
600mg
Sodium
Each stick pack of DUSK Hydration contains 600mg of sodium. Sodium is an essential mineral that carries electrical charges in your body. Sodium also regulates fluid balance, which is at the core of hydration.
Athletes can lose several grams of sodium when training, particularly in hot, humid climates. We’ve talked to professional athletes’ trainers and they often log up to a 7-gram sodium loss in an intense session like a multi-stage enduro race.
400mg
Potassium
After sodium and water, we consider potassium to be next in line for hydration. Deficiencies in this key electrolyte can cause headaches, low energy, and muscle cramps. Each pack of DUSK Hydration contains 400mg of potassium, a significantly larger amount than other electrolyte drink mixes out there.
Potassium is especially important because it works synergistically with sodium to maintain fluid balance. If you don’t eat (or supplement) enough potassium, your body tries to restore this balance by selectively excreting more sodium. Unfortunately, this depletes sodium levels, which really screws up your hydration status.
100mg
Magnesium
Each pack of DUSK Hydration contains 100 mg of magnesium.
Magnesium is a crucial mineral. It aids in energy production, DNA repair, muscle synthesis, restful sleep, and many other things we care about, yet up to 30% of the population may be deficient in magnesium. This is likely why we see positive effects from magnesium supplementation on sleep, strength, anxiety, and depression.
Between 400–600 mg daily seems to be a reasonable target for optimal health, and there’s no downside to shooting for the upper end of that range.
