Frequently Asked Questions
What are O.R.S Sport Hydration Tablets designed for?
The O.R.S Sport range is specifically formulated to support hydration before, during and after physical activity. These tablets help you absorb water more quickly and replenish essential electrolytes lost through sweating. By including Magnesium and Vitamin D to help muscle function and reduce cramps, our Sport range provides comprehensive support for workouts, endurance training, and active lifestyles.
When should I use O.R.S Sport tablets?
You can use O.R.S Sport hydration tablets at any time of the day. Whether it is before, during, or after exercise, they provide a reliable boost of hydration.
They are especially effective during intense training, long workouts, or in hot conditions where you sweat more. The addition of Magnesium helps reduce tiredness and fatigue, while Vitamin D ensures your body stays supported throughout your training cycle.
Do O.R.S Sport tablets contain sugar?
As recommended by the World Health Organisation (WHO), O.R.S Sport tablets contain a small, functional amount of glucose (1.1g per 500ml serving). This specific amount is included to speed up water absorption via the sodium-glucose cotransport mechanism, ensuring your body hydrates faster than by drinking water alone.
It is important to note that our sugar content is significantly lower than that of most traditional sports drinks. We provide the essential components for effective hydration without unnecessary calories (only 8.5kcal per 500ml). Furthermore, every batch of O.R.S Sport is Informed Sport certified. This means our tablets undergo rigorous testing for banned substances, providing the highest level of assurance for competitive athletes and professional teams.
Can O.R.S Sport help improve endurance performance?
Absolutely. When it comes to endurance performance, staying properly hydrated is critical. Our O.R.S Sport range supports rapid water absorption and electrolyte balance, which helps to delay fatigue and keep you energised during longer training sessions.
Beyond hydration, Magnesium contributes to reduced tiredness and fatigue while supporting normal muscle function and electrolyte balance. To further support your training, Vitamin D is included to help muscles recover from strenuous use and reduce cramps. Together, these micronutrients help your body better handle the demands of sustained physical activity.
Can O.R.S Sport help prevent cramps during exercise?
It sure can! Muscle cramps are commonly linked to electrolyte imbalances. O.R.S Sport contains key electrolytes, minerals and vitamins, including magnesium, that work to support normal muscle function and reduce the risk of cramping during or after a workout.
Can professional athletes use oral rehydration supplements?
Oral rehydration supplements like O.R.S Sport are suitable for professional athletes as they are designed to support proper hydration before, during and after exercise.
Every batch of O.R.S Sport is Informed Sport certified. This means the product undergoes rigorous testing for banned substances, providing the highest level of assurance to athletes subject to anti-doping controls.
As with any supplement, it's important for professional athletes to ensure O.R.S Sport aligns with their specific nutritional requirements and to consult with their coaches or performance nutritionists on the best timing for use during their training and competition cycles.
