Optimal electrolyte balance supports performance before, during, and after high intensity activities. Maintaining proper electrolyte balance helps you push your body to the limits, so you can train harder and longer. 

With its unique formulation, Catalyte helps you restore electrolyte balance.* The electrolyte mix is designed to replenish the micronutrients lost through sweat during exercise and athletic performance. Studies suggest that an amino acid-electrolyte formula can better increase cellular rehydration compared to formulas without amino acids.* The blend of electrolytes and micronutrients includes taurine, a conditionally essential amino acid that supports rehydration at the cellular level.*

Catalyte is low in calories and is perfect before, during, and after a workout. Simply mix one scoop with water.

Benefits of Thorne's Catalyte:

• Balanced electrolytes helps fight fatigue, promotes calorie control, and helps fuel your muscles and brain.*
• Potassium promotes fast recovery and helps reduce cramps.*
• Replenishes important minerals in the body that are lost during high intensity activity. Taurine has been shown to promote hydration at the cellular level, which supports performance and recovery.*

Because an athlete needs to know that his or her supplements are trustworthy and compliant, every batch of an NSF Certified for Sport® product is tested for compliance with label claims and to ensure the absence of more than 200 substances banned by many major athletic organizations, including stimulants, narcotics, steroids, diuretics, beta-2 agonists, and masking agents.

How to Use

Mix 1 scoop with at least 12 ounces of water. Consume before, during, and after your workout or as recommended by your health-care practitioner.

Iron is essential to the formation and function of healthy red blood cells.* An adequate amount of iron in the diet is required for blood cells to efficiently transport oxygen throughout the body. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC), up to 16 percent of individuals in certain populations are deficient in iron.

Individuals who are prone to be iron or B vitamin deficient include:

• Individuals looking for nutritional support for anemia 
• Women of menstruating age
• Individuals who follow a vegan or vegetarian diet
• Older individuals and others who tend to have less stomach acid
• Individuals who have undergone gastric bypass surgery
• Those who have intestinal conditions that affect nutrient absorption
• Individuals with an autoimmune disorder

Signs of an iron deficiency:

• Fatigue or weakness
• Shortness of breath
• Pale skin
• Cold hands and feet
• Feeling lightheaded or dizzy
• Changes in menstrual cycles
• Decreased athletic performance

Iron is difficult for the body to absorb, and supplementing with conventional forms of iron, including ferrous sulfate, can cause gastrointestinal side effects – such as nausea, vomiting, constipation, diarrhea, and dark-colored stools. Thorne's Ferrasorb contains iron reacted with glycine to enhance its absorption in the gastrointestinal tract, thus helping to decrease the typical side effects of iron supplementation.*

Why vitamin cofactors? Iron is not the only nutrient essential for healthy red blood cells. Having a deficiency in the B vitamins can also lead to adverse issues with red blood cell formation.*

Signs of B vitamin deficiency:

• Fatigue or muscle weakness
• Decreased mood quality
• Sores in the mouth or on the tongue
• Problems with memory or cognition
• Feeling of being on “pins and needles”

Ferrasorb combines the active forms of vitamin B6 (pyridoxal 5'-phosphate), vitamin B12 (methylcobalamin), and folate (L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate), along with vitamin C, with a well-absorbed form of iron – offering comprehensive nutritional support for anemia.* 

Features of Thorne’s Ferrasorb:

• Iron provided in chelated form for optimal absorption*
• Reduced GI side effects, such as nausea and constipation*
• Provides 36 mg of elemental iron per capsule as Ferrochel® chelate
• Active forms of vitamins B12, B6, and folate, with vitamin C for an enhanced approach to red blood cell health*

Individuals who can be prone to iron deficiency include:

• Women of menstruating age
• Individuals who follow a vegan or vegetarian diet
• Frequent blood donors
• Individuals who have undergone gastric bypass surgery
• Individuals who eat a very high fiber diet, which can inhibit iron absorption
• Individuals recovering from blood loss, such as injury or surgery
• Performance athletes who have any of the above additional risk factors

Signs of iron deficiency:

• Fatigue or weakness
• Shortness of breath
• Pale skin
• Cold hands and feet
• Feeling lightheaded or dizzy

Iron is difficult for the body to absorb, and supplementing with conventional forms of iron, including ferrous sulfate, can cause gastrointestinal side effects – such as nausea, vomiting, constipation, diarrhea, and dark-colored stools. Thorne's Iron Bisglycinate contains iron reacted with glycine to optimize its absorption in the gastrointestinal tract, thus minimizing the typical side effects of iron supplementation.*

Features of Thorne’s Iron Bisglycinate:

• Iron provided in a chelated form for optimal absorption
• Reduced GI side effects, such as nausea and constipation*
• Provides 25 mg of elemental iron per serving as Ferrochel® chelate
• NSF Certified for Sport®
