Energy and sports drinks — electrolytes, creatine, and endurance support
Physical activity consumes electrolytes, magnesium, and B vitamins at a faster rate than rest. During intense training, deficiencies can quickly become apparent — cramps, fatigue, poor recovery. This collection covers both daily foundational support and performance-specific products.
What happens in the body?
Sweat contains sodium (500–2000 mg/L), potassium, magnesium, and calcium. Long sessions or hot climates quickly deplete electrolytes. Glycogen storage requires magnesium and B vitamins. Creatine loads the ATP system for short-term high-intensity efforts.
How we think when we choose products
We prioritize Aussie Trace Minerals for liquid magnesium and trace minerals, Aussie's Best Magnesium Spray for topical magnesium on muscles, Jigsaw Pickleball Cocktail for pre-portioned electrolytes, BiOptimizers Magnesium Breakthrough for broad-spectrum magnesium, Friway Creatine 300 g (pure monohydrate), and Good Night Maggie for evening recovery. No artificial sweeteners, no propellants.
Frequently Asked Questions
Before, during, or after exercise?
Electrolytes during and after. Creatine anytime of day — daily intake is most important. Magnesium often in the evening for recovery.
Do I need an energy drink if I exercise for 30 minutes?
Water is usually sufficient for sessions under 45 minutes. Longer sessions or hot climates warrant electrolytes.
How is creatine dosed?
3–5 g of monohydrate daily. Taken constantly — not in cycles.
