Hydration Mix 101
Don't leave yourself high and dry. Come by the shop and pick up some Skratch Labs Sport Hydration Drink Mix. It was created for a simple purpose - to replace the electrolytes lost in sweat and to provide a little bit of energy when working out, without offending the palate or gut.
Skratch initially created this drink because some of the world’s best athletes needed better. Conventional sports drinks made them sick. They were undrinkable - too sweet, over-flavored, and didn’t even replace what was lost in sweat – which defeated the whole purpose, like fighting thirst with more thirst. Come see us to load up on your hydration needs so you can bust your butt not your gut! #skraatchdealer #skratchlabs

Why Water Isn't Enough
Your body is made up of 60-75% water and when you sweat, you begin to lose water quickly. To avoid cramping, nausea, confusion, cutting your workout early, or a DNF at your next race, you can’t just replace the water you lost. Replacing the sodium is critical to rehydrating successfully. Here at ******** stock up on Skratch Labs Hydration mix to replace what you need. We love Skratch because it is what you need and nothing more. No artificial colors, flavors, preservatives, or fillers. You don't sweat red dye, so why drink it?

How do you like them apples? 🍎
Need a warm drink on your winter adventures? Come see us for some Skratch Sport Hydration Hot Apple Cider. We know that cold weather won't stop you, but dehydration will. Even when it's cold out, if you’re exerting yourself, you’re sweating, and losing both water and electrolytes that need to be replaced. Skratch mixes can be served cold or hot, making it a winner year-round.
Get your Skratch mix at the shop and get cruising.

Cold weather/indoor training hydration
Even when the sweat isn't dripping, chilly weather is a prime time to focus on what's in your water bottle.
During winter activities you may not sense that you are losing a lot of fluid or you may not feel that you need to drink, making sure you stay on top of your hydration, especially with something warm. It’s a lot easier to keep your core temperature up from the inside out than it is from the outside in, so having an insulated bottle and keeping some warm hydration product can be a small but significant thing.
This is one of the main reasons we stock Skratch hydration, it can be served warm! Something to use on those cold days that tastes good hot and that reminds you to bring something out with you that had some calories and electrolytes. #skratchdealer #skratchlabs

Why Water Isn't Enough
While drinking water alone is just fine if you’re sitting around or having dinner at home, drinking water alone is not fine if you’re trying to rehydrate when you’re sweating or have some illness or hangover that results in... we don't want you to lose your appetite.
-
Drinking water alone when we are exercising can be risky since we can lose an appreciable amount of sodium in our sweat (700 to 1400 mg per liter of sweat) and if we don’t replace that sodium then an influx of just water can dilute the sodium in our body. This can lead to a scenario called hyponatremia, which include symptoms like headache, confusion, a drop in performance, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, and more. This scenario can be avoided the closer one gets to replacing both the water and sodium lost in one's sweat.
-
In fact, even if you're not exactly matching the sodium lost in your sweat, during prolonged exercise in the heat at moderate to heavy sweat rates there is no situation where drinking water alone is better than a sports drink that contains a little bit of sugar and plenty of sodium. Here at the shop to solve this problem, we stock and use Skratch Sport Hydration Drink Mix. It replaces what you need with none of the extras like artificial colors or flavors. You don't sweat red dye so why drink it?
