Gnarly Nutrition launched two limited-edition flavors of its electrolyte supplement, Gnarly Hydrate, in Salted Margarita and Lemonade. The flavor drop was selected by customers and first release in Gnarly’s Limited Edition Flavor series. Gnarly surveyed “nearly 5000 customers” to determine the new flavors, with Salted Marg and Lemonade as the top two.
Gnarly Hydrate mixes into water and contains sodium, chloride, potassium, and magnesium to replace electrolytes lost in swea, “critical for proper hydration, nerve function, muscle function, and body pH.” Hydrate flavors also have “just enough sugar to optimize water transport, without tasting too sweet.”
There has been recent demand in the supplement industry for electrolyte solutions that offer higher sodium levels, to provide an option for athletes and heavier sweaters. Dr. Shannon O’Grady, Gnarly’s COO with a Ph.D. in nutritional physiology, said “Sodium plays a key role in how your body functions, as it helps to maintain fluid balance and cognitive function. Sodium is one of the most important electrolytes, if not the most important, so Gnarly wanted to provide a higher sodium option for customers–which naturally was a fit with the Salted Margarita flavor.”
Flavors are available in a limited run. For more product information, go here.
