What actually comes out in sweat?
Share
From our founder
Sweat isn't just your body losing some water when it decides you need to start cooling off. It has a complex mix of electrolytes and minerals that will also leave through perspiration as well. Unless you have had a lab or medical professional analyze your specific sweat composition, you'll never know what exactly comes out in your sweat. But, through extensive research and studies conducted by people way smarter than us at SipScience, we have a good understanding of what a "normal" or average sweat composition looks like. We have gathered information and numbers from a couple of different sources and have come up with what a normal composition could look like.
Chloride: 710mg-2840mg | Sodium: 460mg-1840mg | Potassium: 160mg-390mg
Magnesium: 0mg-36mg | Calcium: 0mg-120mg | Zinc: .4mg | Copper: .3mg-.8mg
Iodine: .052mg
Again, you can't be sure what exactly comes out in your sweat unless you have it tested. There could also be a handful of other minerals or electrolytes not listed above that your body might be expelling through sweat. The question that you should be asking yourself is, "Does my electrolyte/hydration supplement address all or a vast majority of what actually gets lost in sweat?" We can only speak for ourselves here at SipScience, and with our focus on providing our customers with only the most outstanding supplements, this ratio is exactly what we based BioDrip on. Replenishing exactly (almost) what gets lost in sweat shaped and formed our ratio of electrolytes and minerals in Biodrip.
We also wanted to make sure that Biodrip can hit base with as many customer preferences as possible in one swoop. That is why we ensured it only contains exactly what it needs to with no other fluff added. It is naturally sweetened with stevia, no artificial sweeteners (if you care about that), leading to zero calories. It contains no added colors or dyes (drinks don't need to be colored, especially if they taste good). We wanted to make sure that we could cover a good portion of the recommended daily value for the electrolytes and trace minerals (providing a good % Daily Value for a normal intake throughout the day).
In short, hydration isn’t just about replacing water — it’s about replenishing the full spectrum of electrolytes and minerals your body loses through sweat. That’s exactly why we created BioDrip: a clean, science-based formula designed to match what your body needs, without the sugar, dyes, or unnecessary fillers. Simple, effective, and built for real performance.
