Electrolyte SR is a sustained-release SmartMatrix™ supplement featuring a balanced & buffered electrolyte formula. The proprietary vegetable-based, wax-matrix tablet ensures electrolytes release in a slow, steady manner over 4 to 6 hours as the body needs them to better absorb and retain fluids consumed. 

Electrolyte SR can benefit patients at risk of dehydration as a result of intense physical activity, especially in hot, humid conditions or other causes of excess fluid loss. 

Sweat contains significant sodium, plus smaller amounts of potassium, calcium, and magnesium. Beyond fluid and electrolyte balance, replacing these sweat-lost electrolytes is vital for muscle and nerve function, acid-base and digestive homeostasis, bone strength, and exercise recovery. 

Suggested Use: As an electrolyte replacement, take 1-3 tablets with a large glass of water one-half hour prior to physical activity that results in fluid loss. Dose depends on duration of activity and volume to fluid loss. May also be taken after fluid loss to help restore electrolyte and fluid balance. Drink plenty of water according to thirst. Do not exceed recommend dosage without consulting your physician or team doctor. 

A proper hydration plan for activity requires consuming enough water and replenishing electrolytes. In this way, active adults can maintain adequate hydration before, during and after activity. General guidelines for activity are outlined below (1). 

• Before Activity. Drink 0.7–1.4 fl. oz. of water per 10 lbs of body weight 2–4 hours—and up to 30 minutes—before activity.† Take 1-3 tablets of Replace® Electrolyte, depending on anticipated activity duration and fluid loss. 
• During Activity. Drink enough water to keep fluid loss under 1–2% of body weight (about 16 oz per pound lost per hour).† For longer, intense, or multiple events, add 1-3 tablets of Replace® Electrolyte, depending on activity duration and fluid loss. Drink to satisfy thirst, avoid overdrinking. 
• After Activity. Drink 16-24 oz of water for every pound lost, as sweat and urine losses continue after activity.† To help replenish electrolytes, take 1-3 tablets of Replace® Electrolyte, depending on activity duration and fluid loss, during recovery, such as before bedtime. 

Electrolyte SR 

Electrolyte SR is ideally suited for competetive athletes to support hydration needs, help retain fluid consumed and maintain electrolyte balance. The recommended dose is 1-3 tablets before, during, and after prolonged, intense exercise or multiple events. The duration of activity and volume of fluid loss determines the number of tablets per serving.* 

Ingredients: Monosodium phosphate, sodium chloride, vegetable wax (rice bran and/or carnauba), potassium chloride, magnesium citrate, stearic acid (vegetable), silica, and magnesium stearate (vegetable). 

Consult your healthcare professional prior to use if you have or suspect a medical condition, including high blood pressure, are taking any medications, are pregnant or nursing, or are sensitive to salt. 

Electrolyte SR is manufactured in the United States (Oregon) in a state-of-the-art, FDA-registered facility that meets or exceeds current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP). Quality control tests are performed at every stage of the manufacturing process from rigorous raw material testing to finished product testing.
