Changelog
We are constantly testing, researching and improving this formula. That is a claim, and claims need receipts. This page is the receipts.
Every entry below already happened. Some of them make us look worse. Those are the ones that make the rest of it worth reading.
15 August 2026 · Claims we decided we could not make
We ran the literature on everything we were preparing to say. Four claims did not survive, and we cut them.
- That our sodium prevents cramping, hyponatremia or stomach trouble. It does not. Supplemental sodium shows no correlation with any of them in the ultramarathon literature, despite 90 to 96% of ultrarunners taking it anyway.
- That creatine makes you sharper under load. The research showing this used roughly 25 to 30 grams in a single dose. The lowest studied dose is still about three times ours. We deliver 5g.
- That we prevent stomach distress. Exercise stomach trouble comes from blood leaving your digestive system to cool your skin, from heat, and from nine hours of being shaken. A drink does not fix that.
- That creatine fixes cramping. Creatine does not cause cramping, which is a myth worth killing. But no trial shows it prevents exercise cramping either.
We are keeping the ingredients and dropping the promises.
15 August 2026 · Ingredient forms, and why they cost more
All three minerals use the more expensive form. The reasoning was never visible on the label, so here it is.
- Sodium citrate rather than chloride. Three sodium ions per molecule, so the same sodium arrives in fewer dissolved particles.
- Potassium citrate rather than chloride. Less stomach irritation at comparable absorption.
- Magnesium glycinate rather than oxide. Roughly 18.8% fractional absorption against about 4%. Poorly absorbed magnesium stays in the gut and acts as a laxative.
What this does not mean: it does not mean we protect your stomach. It means that of everything you will put in it that day, ours is the one chosen to add the least.
9 August 2026 · Dose figures corrected
Our own box art was wrong and we found it.
The magnesium and potassium figures printed on the artwork did not match the formulation. Both were understated. The verified formulation is magnesium 200mg as magnesium glycinate and potassium 250mg as potassium citrate, and every percentage of Daily Value was independently recomputed against the FDA values.
We are not reprinting the old figures here. They are wrong, and a wrong number screenshotted without its correction is just a wrong number.
The real figures are better than the printed ones, which is the only reason this is comfortable to publish, and exactly why it should be published anyway.
8 August 2026 · Sweetener disclosure corrected
We had been describing the product as sweetened with monk fruit. The panel lists both stevia extract and monk fruit extract. Naming one is partial disclosure. It is corrected everywhere.
We caught it by reading our own back panel at full resolution rather than trusting our own marketing.
Outstanding · Packaging revision
The current printed pouch is wrong and we are reprinting it. It states a count and a weight that do not match what is in the box. Until the reprint lands, the printed panel is not a claim we will stand behind, and no advertising we run uses those figures.
What gets added here
Certificate of analysis results, published in full including anything unflattering. Any formulation revision, with the reason and what it replaced. Anything discontinued. And what the first run of customers tells us, including the parts that contradict us.
