LEVELEN/Consumption-related Questions

Once you complete your LEVELEN™ Sweat Test, you will receive an e-mail with your detailed Individual Sweat Profile and Dashboard.

Your Recommended Fluid & Electrolyte Replenishment Program will be based on your Individual Sweat Profile, the Duration of your workout/competition, and your specific Sport/Activity.

LEVELEN™ Electrolyte Drink Mix is custom formulated with the right amount of electrolytes based on your specific needs, as determined by your Individual Sweat Test. The formulation includes healthy, all natural ingredients found through over 15 years of research to be valuable in enhancing performance, preventing muscle cramps, aiding recovery, and avoiding heat-related issues.

The most rapidly depleted electrolyte is sodium (Na+), and sodium loss is the primary electrolyte that we assess in our sweat testing. Chloride (Cl-) is lost at a highly predictable rate based on sodium loss.

Backed by over 15 years of clinical research with professional & collegiate sports teams, and data on over 2,500 athletes, we have found that the body is very efficient at regulating Potassium levels. Potassium is naturally released in your system during exercise. Contrary to popular belief,

Potassium deficiency does NOT lead to muscle cramping.

Even though we lose Potassium in our sweat, our body is naturally able to keep Potassium levels balanced, without supplementation.  

Competitive athletes can lose excessive amounts of salt, but it is highly individualized. Knowing exactly what you lose is the key to successful replenishment and optimal performance. The LEVELEN ERS™ is designed to address your specific needs, so high salt intake should not be an issue. The goal is to replenish what you lose, rather than take on unnecessary sodium and other electrolytes. Without determining your specific electrolyte needs through a LEVELEN ERSTM Sweat Test, electrolyte replenishment remains a trial-and-error guessing game.

In most cases, you should maintain your normal diet. Remember, the goal is to use LEVELEN™ immediately before and during training & competition to replenish electrolytes that you lose. So, at all other times when not training or competiting, you should maintain your normal, healthy diet.

There are some individuals whose test results will reveal the need for more extreme electrolyte supplementation, and for those, we will recommend increasing salt intake in their diet, in combination with using LEVELENTM Custom Electrolyte Mix during training/competition.
