Frequently Asked Questions
Product
What are electrolytes?
Electrolytes are essential minerals that are vital to many key functions in the body.
What’s in SALTE?
SALTE contains 800 mg of sodium, 400 mg of potassium, and 60 mg of magnesium. Natural flavours and stevia are added to the flavoured variants.
When should I drink SALTE?
Use it first thing in the morning, before, during, or after exercise, when dehydrated, or anytime you need electrolyte support. Keep in mind: it's more effective to replenish electrolytes ahead of time rather than trying to catch up after they've been depleted.
How do I mix it?
Simply mix one sachet with 600-800 ml of water and give it a good shake.
How many servings per day?
New research indicates that 4–6 grams of sodium, 3.5–5 grams of potassium, and 400–600 milligrams of magnesium per day support optimal health, ideally from whole foods. SALTE helps cover any dietary gaps. Many find 1-2 sachets per day effective, depending on their activity. Start slowly, pay attention to your body, and you'll know when you've hit the right balance.
Is there maltodextrin in SALTE?
Maltodextrin is not part of the overall formulation; however, our natural flavours do contain maltodextrin. Maltodextrin is commonly included in powdered flavour formulations to improve texture and stability, enhance flavour distribution, and prevent clumping.
The amount of maltodextrin in one flavoured sachet is around 500 mg - and the unflavoured does not contain any.
To put this in context, 500 mg of maltodextrin in 0.5 liters of water corresponds to a concentration of 0.1% (0.5 grams per 500 ml), which will hardly provide any energy boost or significantly impact blood sugar levels.
The maltodextrin used is gluten-free, GMO-free, and derived from corn and potato (for the Apple flavour).
We understand that some people are concerned about the use of maltodextrin, and we recommend the SALTE Unflavoured variant.
We are also continuously working on improving the product to reduce the amount of maltodextrin or eliminate it completely.
Does it break a fast?
No, it does not break a fast; in fact, it supports your fasting efforts.
Can I trust the quality?
SALTE is developed in Sweden and is produced in manufacturing facilities meeting the highest quality standards, such as BRGCS, HACCP, ISO 22000. With reliable raw material suppliers, where every batch is subjected to rigorous testing, we guarantee the highest quality in every batch.
Is SALTE only for people on a low-carb or keto diet?
We set out to create the ultimate electrolyte drink mix. While it's naturally low in carbs and perfect for keto diets, SALTE is designed for anyone looking to meet their electrolyte needs without compromising on quality or adding unhealthy ingredients to their routine.
