FastChews are ideal for anyone who sweats, including athletes and outdoor workers, or in situations where you need a boost of electrolytes.* How do I use them? It’s in the name! FastChews are FAST-absorbing electrolytes designed to be CHEWed, not mixed with water. The electrolytes in FastChews are absorbed through the lining of your mouth, which studies have shown to take in nutrients 2-4x faster than the intestines. Chew FastChews or let them dissolve in your mouth; then wait 2-3 minutes before eating or drinking so the electrolytes have time to be absorbed into your bloodstream. How often do I use them? Everyone is different, and your exact electrolyte needs will be based on your bodyweight, genetics, level of fitness, and outdoor temperatures. But in general, we recommend taking 1 FastChew every 15 minutes during exercise if you’re consuming a sports drink, or 2 FastChews every 15 minutes if you’re consuming plain water.
