Ingredients explained
Coconut water powder
For centuries, those in tropical regions have cherished the refreshing water from coconuts, not only for its taste but also for its health benefits. In fact, in Sanskrit, the coconut is called 'kalpa vriksha' meaning 'the tree that provides all necessities of life'. Coconut water is celebrated as a natural source of electrolytes, including potassium, calcium, and magnesium.
Chicory Root Inulin
Soluble fiber plays a crucial role in nourishing the diverse community of beneficial microbes in the gut microbiome – and we believe that a healthy gut is essential for overall well-being.
Our Inulin, derived from Chicory Root, is a rich source of fiber and offers a light, sweet, and subtly malty flavour, making it a truly versatile ingredient.
Marine magnesium
Extracted from sustainably harvested red algae from the Irish Sea, our magnesium citrate is highly bioavailable. Magnesium is essential for optimal function, involved in systems and processes throughout the body including energy production, nerve function, glucose regulation and bone and muscle health. Yet, the majority of the population is deficient in this crucial nutrient.
Magnesium is also essential for maintaining electrolyte balance and plays a crucial role in hydration, helping to prevent muscle cramps, reduce fatigue, and support overall energy production.
Calcium Malate
Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body, with nearly 99% stored in the bones and teeth. However, this essential mineral supports much more than just bone health. It plays a vital role in hydration, nerve communication, blood clotting, hormone secretion, and muscle contraction. Our calcium malate is a highly bioavailable form of calcium, offering superior absorption compared to other forms like calcium carbonate.
Pink Himalayan Salt
Protected by snow and ice, Himalayan pink salt remains untouched by modern pollution, making it one of the purest salts on Earth. More than just sodium, it contains essential electrolyte minerals like calcium, magnesium, and potassium, along with an impressive array of trace minerals.
Potassium: TriPotassium Citrate
Potassium is a key mineral which is essential for maintaining proper fluid balance, regulating blood pressure, and facilitating nerve function and muscle contractions. As a key electrolyte, it helps prevent dehydration and supports optimal muscle performance during physical activity. Our potassium citrate has been carefully selected for its purity and high bioavailability.
Chromium Picolinate
Chromium is a lesser-known but highly essential trace mineral with a wide range of health benefits. It plays a crucial role in blood sugar control, supporting insulin function to help enhance glucose metabolism and stabilise energy levels. Chromium also promotes nutrient metabolism, contributing to heart health, weight management, and cognitive function. Our formula includes chromium paired with picolinic acid, a form more easily absorbed than others, maximising its effectiveness.
A closer look
HYDRATED SKIN
Electrolytes help maintain optimal hydration levels throughout the body, including the skin. Hydration supports healthy-looking skin and contributes to overall radiance from within.**
KEEPING IT SIMPLE
Many electrolyte drinks contain added flavors and sweeteners, but at Ancient + Brave, we keep it close to nature. Our True Hydrate formula uses simple ingredients with no artificial additives.
PERFECT PERFORMANCE PAIRING
Pair True Hydrate with True Creatine+ to support physical performance and hydration. While creatine helps maintain muscle energy during high-intensity activity, electrolytes support fluid balance and muscle function -making them a powerful combination for active lifestyles.
AS NATURE INTENDED
We draw inspiration from ancient practices to address today’s needs. Our ancestors relied on mineral-rich spring water, packed with Sodium, Potassium, Magnesium, and Calcium. In contrast, modern tap water often lacks these essential electrolytes, highlighting the importance of replenishing what’s naturally missing for optimal hydration.
WITH ADDED FIBER
Many diets fall short on fiber, which is key for gut health and helps support normal blood glucose levels. True Hydrate is enriched with Chicory Root Inulin, offering a simple and tasty way to support your daily wellness while helping you meet your fiber needs.

FAQs
HOW DO I KNOW IF I'M LOW ON ELECTROLYTES?
Low electrolyte levels may be more common during or after sweating, travel, or after low fluid intake. You may notice changes in how you feel such as tiredness, brain fog or sluggish digestion. Electrolytes help maintain fluid balance, which supports healthy energy levels, focus, and digestion**. If you are concerned about your electrolyte balance, always consult your healthcare provider for support.
WHY HAVE YOU CHOSEN THE LEVELS OF ELECTROLYTE SALTS AND MINERALS?
True Hydrate was formulated to provide gentle, daily support for hydration needs whether you're recovering from a workout, using a sauna, or simply looking to replenish fluids.** We've carefully selected electrolyte levels that are effective yet suitable for everyday use.*
WHY DOES MY BODY NEED ELECTROLYTES?
Hydration is vital for overall health and wellbeing. Staying hydrated can support our brain function, energy, skin health, digestion and muscle health**. Normally when people mention ‘hydration’ the first thing you think of is drinking more water. But deep, cellular hydration requires both water and electrolytes.
CAN I DRINK TRUE HYDRATE EVERYDAY?
Yes, you can enjoy True Hydrate daily. For most people, one serving per day of True Hydrate is sufficient to support hydration. Many people enjoy True Hydrate as part of their morning ritual, post-sauna, during or post workout and when traveling. e.g. flights. In warmer climates or during intense activity, a second serving may be helpful. We would not recommend more than 2 servings of True Hydrate per day, based on the levels of minerals like chromium in the formula. Always follow label directions and consult your healthcare provider if unsure.
CAN I TAKE OTHER ANCIENT + BRAVE PRODUCTS ALONGSIDE TRUE HYDRATE?
Absolutely, True Hydrate is the perfect partner to any of our products. However, it’s a good idea to review the total amount of total magnesium you're consuming from all sources.
IS THIS PRODUCT SUITABLE FOR BREASTFEEDING OR PREGNANT WOMEN?
You should always speak to your health care provider before introducing any new supplements or dietary changes during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Due to ethical constraints, studies in pregnant and breastfeeding individuals are limited, so we are unable to make specific recommendations. If in doubt, please consult your healthcare provider.
