AS I've signed up to this summer's Manchester Half marathon I'm going to be doing some (sweaty) training, so prioritising hydration is crucial.
When we sweat we don't just lose water but vital minerals such as sodium, potassium and calcium too.

Maintaining their balance is vital to prevent dehydration and electrolytes are key. I've put three – which also have added extras – to the test.

The HydroProtein Elixir has electrolytes for hydration
ELLE Macpherson's company WelleCo has released The HydroProtein Elixir. In addition to 15g of pea protein per serving it has electrolytes (sodium, potassium and magnesium) for hydration, and a beauty blend (vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, niacin and biotin) for glowing skin. It's also got vitamin B5 for energy.
The blackcurrant and pomegranate flavour had a refreshing sharpness.
I love that this is a great mixture of ingredients and just 63 calories per serving.

The Hydro Hydration Energy and Focus drink contains five key electrolytes
FOURFIVE is a new firm founded by professional rugby players George Kruis and Dom Day.
Their Hydro Hydration Energy and Focus drink contains five key electrolytes calcium, potassium, chloride, magnesium and sodium as well as lion's mane mushrooms and ginseng which help with energy, focus and mental clarity.
This also has eight B vitamins and 76mg of caffeine which is about the same as a cup of instant coffee but also contains an amino acid called L-theanine which stops you feeling jittery after caffeine.
The Hydro Energy and Focus powder is Red Berry flavour – which is delightful, not too sharp or sweet – and comes as a single, 7-pack or 30-pack sachets (5.5g) from about £1.10 a sachet.
From Holland & Barrett or fourfive.com.

Phizz Daily Energy has a specialised hydration formula
MUCH more than just another energy drink, Phizz Daily Energy, features a specialised hydration formula and a high-strength, scientifically formulated B-vitamin complex.
B-vitamins are important in helping your body convert food into energy, supporting everything from brain function to helping to reduce tiredness and fatigue.
Plus, with a blend of caffeine and guarana extract, it provides 75mg of caffeine per tablet.
Guarana berries contain three times more caffeine than coffee but it's released slowly, meaning Phizz Daily Energy provides sustained energy over time.
They cost £7.99 for a tube of x 20 tablets. For more information, see phizz.co.
