Description

Salt and caffeine in one capsule. Each capsule supplies sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium, plus a small dose of caffeine. You swallow it with water and taste nothing, with no sugar or calories.

Made for the tough hours. Think the second half of an ultra, long trail races in the heat or kilometres in the dark. You notice it most when fatigue hits and you need some sharpness on top of salt.

Watch your total caffeine. If you also use gels or drinks with caffeine, count those too. Taking electrolytes all day? Start with caffeine-free SaltStick Caps and save these for later in the race.

A practical combination of electrolytes and caffeine for long races.

Why SaltStick?

After a few hours of sweating in the sun, you often notice it first: your legs get heavier and cramp is lurking. That's when you want to replace salt without yet another sweet gel or an extra bottle. That's exactly why we carry SaltStick at Trail.NL.

SaltStick makes electrolytes in a fixed dose: capsules you swallow with a sip of water and FastChews you simply chew. They supply sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium, and you choose whether you want caffeine with it. Handy for ultras, long trail runs and races in the heat.

For us, SaltStick is above all a simple choice: easy to dose separately, easy to carry and independently tested for banned substances.
