Science in Sport (SiS) SiS GO Electrolyte Powder

Our Verdict

SiS GO Electrolyte is a performance-focused isotonic drink designed for endurance athletes, not a clean electrolyte supplement. With 36g carbs and only 200mg sodium per 40g serving, it's primarily a carbohydrate fuel source with modest electrolytes. The Informed Sport certification (100% batch testing) is its strongest quality signal. The presence of aspartame and maltodextrin makes it unsuitable for clean-label-focused consumers.
