What's Inside RedCon1 Canteen

• Sodium — 300mg (as Sodium Citrate and Sea Salt) — the primary electrolyte lost through sweat during exercise. Sodium drives fluid retention at the cellular level — without adequate sodium, water consumed during training passes through the body without being absorbed by cells that need it most. 300mg per serving is a meaningful dose for active individuals, particularly those training in warm conditions or sweating heavily.†
• Potassium — 300mg (as Potassium Citrate) — works in direct balance with sodium to regulate fluid distribution between intracellular and extracellular spaces. Potassium is critical for muscle contraction and nerve signaling — low potassium is a primary driver of muscle cramps during and after training. Citrate form is highly bioavailable and gentle on the stomach.†
• Magnesium — 40mg (as Magnesium Citrate) — involved in over 300 enzymatic processes in the body including muscle relaxation, protein synthesis, and ATP energy production. Sweat losses deplete magnesium along with sodium and potassium, and magnesium deficiency is one of the most common micronutrient shortfalls in athletes who train consistently.†
• Dextrose — 5g — a simple sugar that facilitates rapid electrolyte absorption through the sodium-glucose co-transport mechanism in the small intestine. The presence of glucose significantly accelerates sodium and water uptake at the cellular level compared to electrolytes consumed without a carbohydrate source — this is the same principle behind clinical oral rehydration solutions.†
• Taurine — an amino acid with osmoregulatory properties that helps cells regulate their fluid and electrolyte balance. Also supports cardiovascular function and reduces exercise-induced oxidative stress.†
• Coconut Fruit Water Powder — 1g — naturally rich in potassium, magnesium, and antioxidants. Coconut water has been extensively studied as a natural hydration aid and is commonly referenced as one of the most electrolyte-rich natural food sources available.†
• Hyaluronic Acid — 100mg (as Sodium Hyaluronate) — one of the more unique inclusions in any hydration formula. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring molecule that holds up to 1,000 times its weight in water within tissues. Supports cellular hydration in skin, muscle tissue, and joints — a meaningful addition for athletes dealing with joint discomfort from high training volume.†
• Full B-Vitamin Complex — Vitamin C, Niacin, B6, Folate, B12 (Methylcobalamin), Biotin, and Pantothenic Acid. B vitamins are central to energy metabolism and are depleted through sweat and increased metabolic demand during exercise. The methylcobalamin form of B12 is the most bioavailable and neurologically active form available.†
• Zinc — 5.5mg (as Zinc Citrate) — supports immune function, testosterone production, and recovery. Zinc losses through sweat are often underestimated in athletes with high training volume.†

Frequently Asked Questions About RedCon1 Canteen

1. Why does a hydration powder need dextrose?
   Plain electrolytes dissolved in water are absorbed through the intestinal wall via passive diffusion. Adding glucose activates the sodium-glucose cotransporter (SGLT1), a protein channel in the small intestine that actively transports both glucose and sodium into cells simultaneously — dramatically accelerating the rate at which both electrolytes and water are absorbed. This is the same principle behind medical oral rehydration solutions used in clinical dehydration treatment. The 5g of dextrose in Canteen is not there for caloric value — it is there specifically to enhance the speed and completeness of electrolyte absorption.†
2. What makes Canteen different from a standard electrolyte drink?
   Most electrolyte drinks stop at sodium, potassium, and some flavoring. Canteen adds magnesium, zinc, a full B-vitamin complex, taurine, coconut water powder, and hyaluronic acid — creating a comprehensive hydration formula that addresses not just fluid replacement but also micronutrient replenishment, cellular hydration, and joint/tissue hydration. The hyaluronic acid in particular is uncommon in sports hydration products and adds a cellular hydration dimension that neither water nor standard electrolyte drinks address.†
3. When should I take Canteen?
   Before training to pre-load electrolytes and support hydration going into the session. During training to replace what is lost through sweat in real time — particularly useful during sessions exceeding 45-60 minutes or in warm conditions. Post-training to support recovery and rehydration. Canteen is also effective as an all-day hydration tool added to your water bottle and sipped throughout the day, which is especially relevant for people who struggle to drink enough water or who live or train in the Los Angeles heat.†
4. What flavors are available?
   Canteen is currently available in Blue Freeze, Strawberry Lemonade, Cherry Lime Slush, and Plum Fusion. All flavors use natural and artificial flavoring with fruit and vegetable powder for color. Check availability at Get Yok'd both online and in store — flavor availability may vary by location.
5. Can Canteen be stacked with other RedCon1 products?
   Yes — Canteen is stimulant-free and compatible with any RedCon1 pre-workout, protein, or recovery product. A common stacking approach at Get Yok'd is Total War pre-workout before training, Canteen during the session for hydration and electrolyte maintenance, and MRE Protein Shake post-workout for recovery nutrition. Canteen can also be mixed with plain water as a standalone hydration drink on non-training days.†

How to Take RedCon1 Canteen

Mix 1 scoop with 8-12oz of cold water or your preferred beverage. Shake or stir until fully dissolved. Use before, during, or after training. Can also be added to your water bottle and sipped throughout the day on training and non-training days. Adjust water volume to taste preference — more water produces a lighter flavor, less water produces a more concentrated taste.†
