HYDRATION
ELECTROLYTES
B.Y.L.T. sports drinks feature six critical electrolytes with science backed doses to hydrate you faster than water alone aimed at boosting performance. Electrolytes are vital minerals that play key roles in your body, helping transmit electrical signals that power your nerves and muscles, maintain proper blood pH, and regulate fluid balance. During exercise, we lose electrolytes through sweat, which can impact our performance and overall health. Replenishing these electrolytes is crucial for maintaining peak performance and well-being. Even a small loss of fluids, as little as 2%, can lead to a significant decrease in exercise performance. Many athletes struggle to maintain proper hydra'on levels, even with access to fluids. Our formula isn't just for elite athletes—it's designed to support everyone, helping replenish essential minerals often lacking in everyday diets.
- SODIUM is a critical mineral for hydration. When we exercise or engage in physical activity, we lose sodium through sweat, and replenishing it is essential for maintaining proper hydration levels. Sodium helps our bodies retain water, preventing dehydration and ensuring that our muscles and nerves function optimally during workouts. Additionally, sodium aids in the absorption of other important nutrients, such as carbohydrates and electrolytes, which further supports our performance and endurance. By including sodium in your hydration routine, you can stay hydrated, maintain peak performance, and push through even the toughest workouts with ease.
- CHLORIDE might not be the most well-known mineral, but it plays a vital role in keeping us hydrated and performing at our best during exercise. Chloride helps balance electrolytes in our bodies, ensuring proper fluid balance and hydration levels. This mineral also aids in the digestion and absorption of nutrients, helping us get the most out of the food and drinks we consume before, during, and after workouts. By including chloride in your routine, you're not only supporting optimal hydration but also maximizing your body's ability to fuel and recover, so you can crush your fitness goals with confidence.
- POTASSIUM is a powerhouse mineral found in many hydration drinks, and it's essential for keeping our bodies in top form during exercise. This nutrient helps regulate fluid balance, muscle contractions, and nerve signals, which are all crucial for optimal performance and preventing cramps and fatigue. Potassium also plays a role in maintaining healthy blood pressure and heart function, making it especially important for athletes and active individuals.
- MAGNESIUM is essential for vital chemical reactions in the body including regulating muscle and nerve function, supporting proper muscle contractions and relaxation, offering a range of benefits for athletes and active individuals. Magnesium also plays a role in energy production, helping to convert food into energy for optimal performance. Additionally, magnesium is involved in bone health and protein synthesis, crucial for recovery and muscle growth.
- CALCIUM isn't just for strong bones... isn't just for strong bones – it's also a valuable addition for athletes and fitness enthusiasts. This essential mineral plays a crucial role in muscle contractions, helping your muscles work efficiently during exercise and reducing the risk of cramps and injuries. Calcium also supports bone health, which is essential for athletes who put their bodies through rigorous training. Additionally, calcium contributes to nerve function and blood clotting, ensuring your body can perform at its best and recover effectively after workouts.
- ZINC is an essential mineral that offers numerous benefits for athletes and fitness enthusiasts alike. This powerhouse nutrient plays a crucial role in supporting immune function, which is particularly important during intense physical activity when the body is under stress. Additionally, zinc helps with muscle repair and growth, aiding in post-workout recovery. Furthermore, zinc contributes to maintaining healthy skin, which is vital for athletes who are exposed to harsh environmental conditions during training. By including zinc in your hydration routine, you're not only replenishing electrolytes but also giving your. body the support it needs to perform at its best and recover efficiently.
ENERGY
Dual-Phase SmartCarb® System
This is a groundbreaking combination of highly branched cyclic dextrin (HBCD) and Palatinose™ paired with with EAAs to create a next-generation performance matrix that fuels workouts more efficiently than traditional sports drinks. This innovative pairing delivers both rapid-access energy and sustained-release carbohydrates, ensuring your body has exactly what it needs — when it needs it. With the added support of EAAs for muscle repair, endurance, and recovery, B.Y.L.T.’s SmartCarb® technology blend helps athletes push harder, recover faster, and stay energized without the crash, bloat, or blood
sugar spikes. (US Patent 11,103,522)
ENDURANCE
PALATINOSE™
Palatinose™, a special type of carbohydrate found in B.Y.L.T., is unique because it digests slowly, providing a steady supply of energy during exercise. Even though its naturally found in small amounts in honey and sugar cane juice, Palatinose™ is made from sugar beets, where natural enzymes strengthen the bonds between glucose and fructose molecules, resulting in a carbohydrate that's absorbed gradually by the body. This means sustained energy for your workouts and recovery, without causing discomfort like bloating or stomach cramps. It doesn’t spike blood sugar making it an excellent choice for diabetics as well!
RECOVERY
BCAAs
Branched Chain Amino Acids have been proven to effectively increase strength, power, speed and muscular endurance along with enhancing recovery by providing critical support to Muscle Protein Synthesis. Numerous studies support the effectiveness of the ratio for training for muscle size, strength, endurance and power. As the most studied BCAA combination, it has become the gold standard.
- L-LEUCINE
Considered the ‘king’ of the amino acids, it has the primary responsibility of activating mTOR which helps initiate protein synthesis and supports the body’s release of insulin from the pancreas; This offers muscle supporting and enhanced recovery benefits.
- L-ISOLEUCINE
Primarily responsible for increasing glucose uptake into cells; works synergistically with leucine and has muscle supporting properties as well.
- L-VALINE
Helps stimulate muscle protein synthesis and supports the body’s natural ability to eliminate excess nitrogen from the liver.
RECOVERY
EAAs
Essential Amino Acids -Your body needs 20 amino acids to function, but 9 are essential—meaning your body can’t produce them, and they must be obtained through food or supplements. B.Y.L.T. delivers a complete EAA blend to optimize muscle recovery, endurance, and overall health.
✅ Complete EAA Profile – Provides all 9 essential amino acids for peak performance.
✅ Supports Recovery – L-Leucine & L-Lysine aid in muscle repair and growth.
✅ Boosts Endurance – L-Threonine & L-Phenylalanine support protein synthesis and energy production.
✅ Enhances Mood & Focus – L-Tryptophan helps regulate serotonin for mental clarity and sleep.
✅ Optimized Absorption – amino acids bypass digestion for rapid uptake.
Studies show that leucine-enriched EAAs can stimulate protein synthesis as effectively as whey protein—giving you fast muscle recovery with minimal digestive load.
HYDRATION
HYDROMAX™
HydroMax™ is a highly concentrated and bioavailable form of vegetable glycerol that works to improving hydration and exercise performance.

HYDRATION
BETAINE ANHYDROUS
Betaine Anhydrous, also known as trimethylglycine, is a purified, natural nutrient derived from sugar beets. (found beets, spinach, and seafood.) It is a patented form of betaine with 99% purity and functions as a powerful osmolyte, helping protect cells and proteins from dehydration. Structurally similar to the amino acid glycine, with three attached methyl groups, highly stable form of betaine used in sports supplements to improve muscle performance, hydration, and recovery.
How Does It Work?
Betaine supports performance in three main ways:
Increases creatine production – Helps boost power output during short, intense exercise.
Improves nitric oxide (NO) – May
help increase blood flow and oxygen delivery to muscles.Supports hydration – Keeps muscle cells full and protected under stress.
Supporting fat breakdown (lipolysis)
Increasing fatty acid oxidation (fat used as fuel)
Promoting protein synthesis for lean muscle growth
