Want to avoid cramps? Think electrolytes, not powdered sugar

Cramp. That sneaky ache that pops up without warning during your series of squats, your yoga session or... at 3am. You know, the one that makes you jump like an electrocuted cat.

 

What if I told you that it's not your lack of courage, but your lack of minerals ?

 

⚡ The real culprit: electrolyte imbalance

When you sweat, you lose sodium, potassium, magnesium.
And without them, your muscle cells behave like a badly coded app: they crash, contract without warning and refuse to relax.

 

"Exercise-related muscle cramps are strongly associated with electrolyte depletion, particularly sodium." Schwellnus MP et al., British Journal of Sports Medicine, 2008

 

And no, drinking a soda or sugary drink won't solve anything. Except give you an unnecessary glycemic spike.

 

🍬 Sugar is not an electrolyte

Let's get one thing straight:

• Sugar doesn't reduce cramps

• Sugar is no substitute for minerals

• Sugar can can even worsen water lossby stimulating an insulin that sends glucose... and sodium into the cells, thus out of circulation.

 

 

"Excessive sugar consumption can alter electrolyte balance by disturbing the sodium-water balance." Monteiro JP et al., Nutrition Research Reviews, 2017

 

 

🧪 AQUAPOP, the anti-cramp weapon

Each AQUAPOP tablet gives you :

• Sodium → the boss of fluid retention

• Magnesium → prevents muscle spasms

• Potassium → nervous and cellular balance

• And... 0 sugar

 

A winning combo that optimizes hydration, performance and recovery. 

 

 

🥇 Sportsmen and cramps: an all-too-frequent bad combo

Even in the pros:

• 68% of marathon runners reported cramps

• 40% of top-level footballers

• 60% of crossfitters after long wod

 

And the common denominator? Poorly corrected electrolyte deficiency.

 

 

📋 The anti-cramp plan

 

 

And no, your flashy neon mango can won't do the job if it contains 20 g of sugar and a dash of potassium.

 

🧠 To sum up:

Do you want muscles that obey? Do you want to run, jump and dance without squeaking?

✅ Smart wood
✅ Forget the sugar
✅ Think well-dosed electrolytes

 

 

And if you want to keep it simple: take an AQUAPOP tablet and add it to your water bottle. Are you sweating? It works. Are you contracting? It relaxes.
