How to Take

Long-Term Extended Fasting (Over 72 hours)

Take several servings of 3 to 6 capsules throughout the day, with plenty of water (at least one 500ml glass). Do not take more than 6 capsules at a time. Absolute daily maximum for EF is 24 capsules per day. Start with a lower dosage on your first day and gradually increase.

Short-Term Extended Fasting (24-72 hours)

Take several servings servings of 2-3 capsules throughout the day, with plenty of water (at least one 500ml glass).

Islamic Fasting

Take 3 capsules with a large glass of water (300-500ml) together with your Suhoor meal. If you expect to experience heavy sweating during the day (due to hot weather, exercise or hard physical work), increase the dosage up to 6 capsules.

If you have strong symptoms of electrolyte deficiency by the evening (such as headache, fatigue, muscle cramps, dizziness), take another small serving (1-2 capsules) with your Iftar meal, suggested dosage 0.3 scoop of powder.

Intermittent Fasting | OMAD | Keto

Take 2-3 capsules with a large glass of water during your fasting window. Do not take at the same time as food.

IMPORTANT: Do not take without water – drink a large glass of water after taking the capsules. The product is highly concentrated and may cause digestive upset if taken without water. Do not exceed the stated dose.

Warnings

SIDE EFFECTS: This product is a highly concentrated mix of electrolyte salts. Excessive dosage of electrolytes can cause side effects such as diarrhoea, nausea, bloating, abdominal cramps, and headache.

Please always follow our recommendations on how to take this product safely. Do not exceed the stated dosage. If adverse reactions occur, discontinue use immediately.

Do not use this product if you have elevated blood pressure. If you have any other health concerns or are on any medications, consult your doctor before fasting and before taking this supplement. If side effects occur, stop taking the product immediately and consult your doctor or another qualified health professional.

Store in a cool dry place. Keep away from children. Do not use if the seal is broken.

EXTENDED FASTING WARNING
Extended fasting for longer than 72 hours requires medical supervision. Discuss your fast plans with your doctor including usage of this supplement. Stop your fast immediately if you feel unwell at any point.

Frequently Asked Questions

Our Fasting Salts products are designed primarily for Extended Fasting.

However, many of our customers do occasional EF, then revert to IF and/or Keto as their default way of eating.

So if you have some salts left after your Extended Fast, you can continue using it in smaller dosages to support IF or Keto.

If you don’t practice extended fasting at all, you could get a less concentrated product with lower sodium content.

Intermittent Fasting: try our fasting dosage calculator to see if you can benefit

Keto: check out our Keto Electrolytes capsules

Yes. Any electrolyte supplement can potentially cause digestive upset, especially during extended fasting. Your system is very sensitive and can be disrupted even by standard table salt.

To minimise the chance of this happening, please follow our dosage guidelines on how to take this fasting supplement. We strongly recommend using our dosage calculator to determine the optimal amounts for you individually. 

If you do experience digestive upset, try reducing the dosage of powder or diluting it further with water.

If you are taking this product for Keto or Intermittent Fasting, do not take it together with food.

If you feel this supplement is not working out for you, please contact us and get a full refund under our 60-day money-back guarantee.

Yes, this product is Halal-certified and suitable for Islamic fasting.

Many of our customers are Muslims who take this supplement during their religious fasting.

Please see our blog article on how to use our supplements for Islamic fasting.

Almost. We had to make two minor tweaks to this formulation for the capsules version:

1) Slightly reduced the amount of potassium due to FDA requirements for electrolyte capsule products (99mg max per capsule)

2) Added a small amount of calcium carbonate as a bulking agent to enable machine encapsulation. This ingredient is also a natural electrolyte salt that will not interfere with your autophagy or ketosis in any way.

24 capsules per day is the maximum upper limit per day for long-term Extended Fasting. Most people need a lower dosage than that.

For IF/Keto, the dosage is much smaller, up to 3 capsules per day.

We are all different. Your exact electrolyte requirements depend on your genetics, lifestyle, electrolyte content of your drinking water and many other factors.

Please use our dosage calculator to find the quantity that’s optimal for you individually.

Nutritional Reference Values (NRVs) – and Daily Values (DVs) in the USA – were developed based on a “standard” Western diet. They are extremely generic even for that purpose, implying that “one size fits all” nutritionally which is never the case.

When applied to alternative ways of eating like Keto and fasting, these guidelines are completely off.

For example, many vitamins and minerals are used for digesting and metabolising macronutrients – not required when you fast.

It’s a legal requirement to include NRV information on supplement labels. But they are not really meaningful when applied to fasting or Keto.

Magnesium citrate is one of the preferred options for electrolyte supplementation within the fasting community. It is recommended by many experts and support groups.

For us, it was the optimal choice based on its bioavailability, shelf life, ratio strength and water solubility.

Some people have concerns about the laxative effects of magnesium citrate. It’s true that it is sometimes used for this purpose, but at much higher dosages.

If you experience digestive upset, it will be most likely due to incorrect dosages. Please use our dosage calculator to determine the optimal amounts for you individually.

Money Back Guarantee

If you are unhappy with your supplements for any reason whatsoever, you will get a full refund. It’s ok to return even if you have already taken most of the capsules, or even all of them!

We recommend trying supplements for at least 7 days to feel the benefits. But it’s completely up to you.

We will issue a full refund in all cases. No questions asked. It’s simple!
