{"product_id":"saltstick-electrolyte-capsules","title":"SaltStick Caps Electrolyte Capsules","description":"\u003cp\u003eSaltStick Caps are electrolyte capsules carrying up to 660 mg of electrolytes each, with no sugar and no flavour. One capsule with water every 30 to 60 minutes is the usual dose. The formula is built to match the ratio of electrolytes lost in sweat, and it is the highest-sodium option SaltStick make.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h5\"\u003eWhat it is and when to use it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA flavourless capsule you swallow with water, for people who sweat heavily or who simply do not want another sweet thing during a long effort. At up to 660 mg of electrolytes per capsule this is the concentrated end of the range — roughly four times what a serving of FastChews carries.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe formula is built to match the ratio of electrolytes in sweat rather than to taste good, which is the argument for capsules over anything chewable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h5\"\u003eTaste and texture\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is none, and that is the selling point. After several hours, sweet drinks and chews stop being appealing for most people, while a capsule stays neutral. They are size 0, small enough to swallow easily, and SaltStick position them as sitting well on the stomach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h5\"\u003eCaffeine, sodium and what varies\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUp to 660 mg of electrolytes per capsule\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003e0 g of carbohydrate\u003c\/strong\u003e. These replace salt only — they are not fuel, and on a long effort you still need carbohydrate from somewhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlain Caps carry no caffeine. Race Ready Caps Plus is the version with 30 mg.
