Can Mana help with headaches, fatigue, or brain fog?
Many people experience headaches, low energy, dry skin, muscle cramps, or brain fog without realising mild dehydration and electrolyte imbalance is the root cause. Replenishing electrolytes daily addresses that root cause — though if symptoms persist, please see a doctor.
I live in a hot climate — do I need more electrolytes?
Yes. Heat dramatically increases sweat and sodium loss, even without exercise. If you live somewhere hot (like the Gulf region), daily electrolyte replacement isn't a luxury — it's essential. Many customers take one serving in the morning and a second on high-heat or training days.
Is Mana just for athletes?
Not at all. While Mana delivers everything a marathoner, Hyrox athlete, or footballer needs, it's designed for everyday life too — from desk days to travel days.
How does Mana compare to traditional sports drinks?
Traditional sports drinks are mostly sugar and water with a small amount of electrolytes, plus artificial colours and preservatives. Mana flips that: a full, science-backed dose of electrolytes with zero sugar and nothing artificial — hydration without the crash or empty calories.
Does Mana help prevent muscle cramps?
Cramps during exercise are commonly linked to sodium and fluid loss through sweat. By replacing sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium in balanced ratios, Mana supports normal muscle function and helps reduce cramping during and after training.

All three work — it depends on your session:
Before (30 min prior): prime hydration and prevent early fatigue
During: for sessions over 60–90 minutes, especially in heat
After: to accelerate recovery and rehydration
