Product Information
Unived Salt Capsules are electrolyte capsules formulated to serve as electrolyte replacements to replenish the lost electrolytes through sweat and urine that are inevitable during endurance activities lasting more than 3 hours, especially in Indian weather conditions.
Unived Salt Capsules contain electrolytes in the right proportion and in a highly bioavailable form that ensures that your system is instantaneously compensated for the loss of vital electrolytes, without experiencing spikes and drops in performance levels due to issues like muscle cramping, dehydration, stomach distress, and fatigue. They also shield your body against lasting physiological upheavals caused, by delivering adequate levels of nutrition that support optimal performance and complete system recovery.
Unived Salt Capsule gives you a formulation that goes the extra mile – just like you. In addition to the crucial electrolytes like Sodium, Chloride, Potassium, and Magnesium, salt capsules come enhanced with Vitamin D3 to sustain optimal bone health and immune function – a first in India. Unived Salt Capsules complement your hydration source (water/sports drink) perfectly in keeping hydration imbalances at bay. With the Unived Salt Capsules, you get a timely replenishment of electrolytes and bone health support during intense endurance activities like ultra-marathons, brevets, and triathlons.

Electrolytes
Electrolytes are an indispensable part of the fuelling mechanism of your body, especially during high-endurance activities. Electrolytes mediate the transport of nutrients, enzymes, and fluids in and out of our cells. Common performance issues during endurance activities like muscle cramping, stomach distress, hydration imbalances, and weakness are often linked to rapid electrolyte loss due to sweating and weather conditions [1]. Undoubtedly, electrolytes are the bedrock of performance, especially during physical activities exceeding 3 hours.
Your body’s hydration status and electrolyte balance are closely linked, as the transport of electrolytes in and out of cells are carried out in a fluid medium. This means that if you are dehydrated or over-hydrated. It has an effect on the electrolyte balance of your body, which in turn has a cascading effect on your performance. [1]
The ‘sweat rate’ factor
Endurance performance is greatly compromised in warmer temperatures and higher humidity levels. To dissipate heat from the body to the environment, the blood flow to your skin increases. A greater supply of blood to your skin results in more sweating, which helps to bring down your core temperature. However, since electrolytes are transported through the body’s fluid, a large proportion of the electrolytes are also expelled along with sweat [2].
The amount and proportion in which various electrolytes are lost depend on your ‘sweat rate, which is the amount of sweat you lose during an endurance activity. Sweat rates vary wildly on an individual basis, depending on the athlete’s physiology, and the temperature and humidity levels. Knowing your sweat rate is important for understanding how your body responds to heat and humidity, and the rate at which you will dehydrate and lose electrolytes. This will help you test out an electrolyte plan and fueling strategy during training itself, to give the body the chance to acclimate to it before an important event.
