Hydration isn’t as simple as you think

The higher intracellular water, the better heat is dissipated. Well hydrated cells can do more intense work, meaning a higher level of physical and mental activity. Unlike hydration products based on only a few electrolytes that are mostly involved in hydration of the circulation, Totum Sport supports all aspects of hydration in all compartments of the body.

Power of Plankton

Plankton are the most important group of organisms on earth. They are the foundation of the whole food chain in the ocean and perform some of the most crucial functions, necessary for the creation of life. Phytoplankton use sunlight and photosynthesis to produce almost 70% of the earth’s oxygen. Totum Sport is the only 100% natural hydration supplement in the world.

Make your water work correctly

Status of dehydration can have a range of detrimental effects in sports performance. Mild dehydration can offset electrolyte balance in the body and brain. This can impact brain structure, causing confusion and poor focus. Studies show that being 2% dehydrated results in a 10% loss in performance. Make your water work correctly.

Stop Cramps Before it Happens

One of the major problems for elite athletes is muscle cramps, which can have massive impacts on performance. Cramp is considered to be a result of various different factors including fatigue, dehydration, low blood sodium and electrolyte imbalances.

Don’t lose your focus

Cognitive aspects during a match can impact the player as well as the physical aspects. This mental fatigue alters cognitive function and contributes to post exercise fatigue. Hydration plays an important role in cognitive function, with even slight dehydration shown to make everyday tasks more difficult.

Prolong Stamina and Strength

During performance, your muscular endurance and cardiovascular system are tested to the limit. Stamina relies on adequate energy and oxygen. Once energy or oxygen start to deplete and fail to keep up with demand, cellular respiration switches from aerobic (with oxygen) to anaerobic (without oxygen). This switch is significantly less efficient at generating energy for muscles to work.

Mineralised Sleep

Sleep has many benefits for health and performance. The quality of your sleep has been proven to effectively support both areas. Research shows that 75% of athletes fail to get the recommended eight hours of sleep per night, and 11% of athletes sleep for less than six hours per night. Sleeping for less than six hours per night has shown to depress the immune system.

Repair at a cellular level while you sleep

It is important that we recover multiple times throughout the day. Totum Sport is a 100% natural hypertonic solution that is quickly absorbed by the cells. It is therefore used throughout the day to support recovery. Totum Sport Nite is a more gentle solution which is directly absorbed by your cells. Repair at a cellular level while sleep.

Deeper Brain Sleep

The circadian rhythm keeps you awake and alert during the day as it activates brain and body mechanisms. These mechanisms are less active at night. Every single process in the brain is optimally enhanced by sleep and detrimentally impaired by lack of sleep.

Improve Gut Health and Immunity While you Sleep

Repetitive travel interrupts the body’s circadian rhythm which can often lead to insomnia, fatigue and gut issues. Evidence shows that increased training load, competition load and psychological stress, together with long distance travel, may all be risk factors for illness in the modern-day elite athlete.

Electrolyte Synergy

In the 1980s, the complex interactions between 29 electrolytes were identified. Similar interactions between different nutrient groups have also been found, demonstrating the complex nature of nutrition and why all nutrients must be considered together. It is the electrolyes that link all the nutrient groups together.

The correct proportions

The fact that specific areas of the ocean give rise to the emergence of cellular life indicates that the seawater in these areas provides the correct nutrient mix for cellular life. The other requirement for electrolytes is that they are bioavailable so the body can absorb and use them.

Biology of Sport - Totum Sport Independent Study

Biology of Sport: Effects of Totum Sport ingestion on lactate response to exercise. In a research paper, published in the latest Biology of Sport Journal, the blood lactate levels of Totum Sport test athletes’ increased 46% less, when the body became dehydrated by just 2%, than it did in the placebo group.
