      "acceptedAnswer": {
        "@type": "Answer",
        "text": "Custom electrolyte formulations exist precisely because sweat is not uniform. Rather than working from a fixed sodium concentration, the principle is to match intake to individual loss rates, adjusting the sodium content of what you consume during training and competition based on session length, intensity, heat, and personal sweat profile."

      "acceptedAnswer": {
        "@type": "Answer",
        "text": "Cramping is the symptom most athletes associate with sodium loss, but it's arguably the least useful signal, it arrives late, after performance has already been compromised. Earlier indicators include a subtle increase in perceived effort at a given pace, reduced mental clarity during complex race decisions, and a disproportionate sense of fatigue relative to the work done."

      "acceptedAnswer": {
        "@type": "Answer",
        "text": "Treat fuelling as part of your preparation, not an afterthought. The science only helps when it is applied consistently: plan around your training and competition, fuel before you feel you need to, and review what works for you over time. Science in Sport products are designed to make evidence-based fuelling simple to get right, so you arrive prepared and perform with confidence."
