{"title":"RYSE","description":"\u003ch2\u003eWho is RYSE Supplements?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRYSE Supplements\u003c\/strong\u003e is an \u003cstrong\u003eAmerican\u003c\/strong\u003e sports nutrition brand founded in \u003cstrong\u003eNovember 2017\u003c\/strong\u003e by Nic Stella, based in \u003cstrong\u003eProsper, Texas\u003c\/strong\u003e. In just a few years, it has become one of the most popular brands in the United States, thanks to its high-dose pre-workouts, collaborations with confectionery brands for flavors, and strong social media presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts positioning can be summarized in one sentence: formulas with \u003cstrong\u003etransparent dosages\u003c\/strong\u003e, no proprietary blends, and a strong focus on taste. In a market where many manufacturers hide real quantities behind a global total, this first point is important: you can verify what you're buying line by line and honestly compare it with another brand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn France, RYSE is not distributed in supermarkets. It comes through specialized retailers, and the truly imported offer is a small fraction of the American catalog.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat is the RYSE range worth?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat the brand does best are \u003cstrong\u003eworkout formulas\u003c\/strong\u003e: pre-workouts, hydration products, and drink powders. The dosages are clear, the labels legible, and the flavors are significantly above average for the category — which is not a minor detail for a product consumed three to five times a week for months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat it does less well, from a European buyer's perspective, is market adaptation. The packaging is designed for the United States, and the percentages printed on the sachets are \u003cstrong\u003eAmerican %DVs\u003c\/strong\u003e, calculated based on reference values that are not the European NRVs. We recalculate these values on each product sheet, but the sachet you hold will show different figures: this is normal and does not change the actual quantity of minerals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat RYSE products can be found here?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRYSE Hydration — Electrolyte Sticks\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is where we started, and it's the most useful product in the range for everyday use. \u003cstrong\u003eMixable sticks\u003c\/strong\u003e, sugar-free and \u003cstrong\u003ecaffeine-free\u003c\/strong\u003e, built on a complete mineral profile supplemented with \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/taurine\"\u003etaurine\u003c\/a\u003e and coconut water powder. Each sachet contains \u003cstrong\u003e16 sticks\u003c\/strong\u003e; one is diluted in 500 to 700 ml of water, before, during, or after exercise depending on perspiration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe real benefit is that of the entire family of \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/electrolytes\"\u003eelectrolytes\u003c\/a\u003e: when you sweat a lot, you lose sodium, potassium, and magnesium, and water alone doesn't replace them. This is a serious issue in our region between May and September, where an un-airconditioned gym session or an outdoor workout can dehydrate an individual much faster than they realize. Conversely, for a short indoor session in cool weather, tap water is sufficient: we prefer to say so.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince these sticks contain neither caffeine nor sugar, they can be taken at any time, including in the evening, and combine perfectly with \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/creatine-1\"\u003ecreatine\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/eaa\"\u003eEAAs\u003c\/a\u003e, or \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/proteines\"\u003eprotein\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOur retailer's opinion\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat works.\u003c\/strong\u003e The formulas are complete, legible, and correctly dosed, and the focus on taste is genuine — it's one of the few hydration products you finish without forcing yourself, which is exactly the goal: a pleasant drink is a drink you'll actually consume. The absence of proprietary blends also allows for an objective comparison with any other brand in the category.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe main limitation: the price, a direct consequence of importation.\u003c\/strong\u003e For a comparable mineral profile, a European electrolyte formula is often cheaper per stick. What you pay extra for are the brand and the taste — two real things, but they must be weighed against the cost. If your primary criterion is cost per serving, compare it with the rest of our \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/electrolytes\"\u003eelectrolyte\u003c\/a\u003e range before deciding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTwo other reservations.\u003c\/strong\u003e The American %DV labeling creates inevitable confusion for a French buyer, and you have to consult our product sheets to find comparable values. And availability is inconsistent: arrivals depend on imports, flavor stockouts are frequent, and a good portion of the American catalog — starting with the pre-workouts that made the brand's reputation — simply does not pass through us.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eRYSE or a European electrolyte formula?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe question arises every time at the counter, and the answer depends on the criterion you prioritize. For \u003cstrong\u003etaste\u003c\/strong\u003e, RYSE is ahead: this is what makes the brand's reputation, and it determines whether the sachet will be finished or forgotten. For \u003cstrong\u003eprice per stick\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003elabel legibility for a French consumer\u003c\/strong\u003e, the European formulas in our \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/electrolytes\"\u003eelectrolyte\u003c\/a\u003e section have the advantage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne point that applies to both: check the \u003cstrong\u003esodium content per dose\u003c\/strong\u003e, as this is the most important mineral in sweat, and it's the one where formulas vary the most. A flavored drink without sodium — like \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/boisson-sans-sucre-bolero\"\u003eBolero\u003c\/a\u003e preparations, which are excellent for drinking more daily — does not fulfill this role and does not claim to do so.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat exactly is RYSE?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn American sports nutrition brand created in 2017 in Texas by Nic Stella, known for its highly dosed pre-workouts, carefully crafted flavors, and transparently dosed formulas, without proprietary blends.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs RYSE a good brand?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, in its niche — workout and hydration products — where the dosages are real and the taste is above average. It's not the brand to prioritize if your main criterion is price: importing from the United States comes at a cost, and European equivalents cover the same need for less money.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDo you sell RYSE pre-workouts?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot for now: our selection starts with the Hydration range. The pre-workouts that made the brand famous in America do not pass through our supply chain, and we will not describe products we do not have in hand. For a booster, our \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/boosters\"\u003eboosters\u003c\/a\u003e section covers the need with other brands, and our \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/booster-sans-cafeine\"\u003ecaffeine-free booster\u003c\/a\u003e section if you train in the evening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDo RYSE products contain proprietary blends?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. Each ingredient is displayed with its exact quantity, which allows for a true comparison of one formula to another. This is one of the brand's strongest arguments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy don't the percentages on the sachet match those on the product sheets?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sachets print American %DVs, calculated based on US reference values. We recalculate the values into European NRVs on each product sheet, which gives different percentages for an identical quantity. The figure to look at remains the quantity in milligrams, which does not change.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDo RYSE Hydration Sticks contain caffeine?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. These are sugar-free and caffeine-free electrolyte sticks, usable at any time of day, including in the evening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow many sticks per sachet and how to use them?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sachet contains 16 sticks. One stick is diluted in 500 to 700 ml of water, before, during, or after exercise depending on perspiration. In very hot weather or during a long session, it is more effective to drink regularly in small sips rather than gulping it all down at the end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDo I really need electrolytes?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot always, and we prefer to say so. For a one-hour indoor weight training session in cool weather, water and a normal diet are sufficient to cover losses. Electrolytes become truly useful after an hour of effort, in very hot weather, when sweat is abundant or salty — white streaks on the t-shirt, salty taste on the lips — and during repeated efforts throughout the day. In cases of kidney insufficiency, hypertension, or a low-salt diet, ask your doctor for advice before adding sodium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to recognize an authentic RYSE product?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGo through a declared reseller with a physical address. The usual warning signs apply here: price well below market, sachet without French labeling affixed by the importer, short expiration date, anonymous seller on a marketplace. We source through the official channel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAre these products suitable for tested athletes?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo dietary supplement can be considered risk-free by default. If you are subject to anti-doping controls, check lot by lot with the manufacturer and refer to the list of prohibited substances published by the AFLD. We do not claim any third-party anti-doping certification for this range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan RYSE be purchased in stores in Montpellier?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, the range is in stock in our \u003ca href=\"\/en\/pages\/nutrition-vendargues\"\u003eVendargues\u003c\/a\u003e store, a few minutes from Montpellier.

All orders placed before 2 PM are shipped the same day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere to see the RYSE range near Montpellier?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sticks are on the shelves in our \u003cstrong\u003eVendargues\u003c\/strong\u003e store, about ten minutes from Montpellier. For a hydration drink, the conversation at the counter mainly serves one purpose: to check if you actually need it. Depending on the duration of your sessions and the season, we sometimes simply advise drinking more water — and saving your money for something else.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe also ship throughout France and Europe.

All three dissolve in 500 to 750 ml of water; less water gives a very concentrated taste that few people enjoy while training.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat exactly is an electrolyte drink?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a drink that supplies the minerals lost in sweat, in a form dissolved in water. In chemistry, an electrolyte is a substance that dissociates into ions and conducts current; in the body, those ions — sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, chloride — take part in fluid balance and muscle contraction. An electrolyte drink is therefore neither a stimulant nor a source of energy: it does not necessarily contain carbohydrate and has no effect on alertness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat are the main electrolytes?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFive above all: \u003cstrong\u003esodium\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003echloride\u003c\/strong\u003e, the most abundant in sweat, \u003cstrong\u003epotassium\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003emagnesium\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003ecalcium\u003c\/strong\u003e. Phosphorus and bicarbonate complete the list physiologically. Sodium is the one lost in the greatest quantity during exercise — hence its place at the top of every serious formula, this one included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhen should electrolytes be taken?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring exercise, or just after, when the session has been long and sweaty. The practical marker: beyond an hour of sustained activity, in strong heat, or if your t-shirt dries leaving white salt marks. Before exercise is only useful if you set off already poorly hydrated. The rest of the time, food covers these intakes amply: this is not a supplement to take every day on principle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat do electrolytes actually do?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey replace what sweat carries away. Drinking only water during a long, very sweaty effort dilutes the remaining minerals, which shows up as thirst that is never quenched and heavy legs. In regulatory terms, it is the magnesium, potassium and calcium in the formula that carry the claims relating to muscle function and tiredness — not the concept of an \"electrolyte drink\" in itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDo electrolytes prevent cramp?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNothing allows us to say so, and we will not. The idea is widespread, but the available work on exercise cramp points more towards neuromuscular fatigue than towards a lack of minerals. An electrolyte drink can help you cope better with a long, hot effort; presenting it as a treatment for cramp would be dishonest. If cramps are frequent or painful, that is a matter for a doctor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan you make your own electrolyte drink?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, and it is very simple: water, a pinch of salt, a little lemon juice and a source of carbohydrate if the effort is long. The result costs a few cents and fulfils the main function. What you lose: precise dosing, magnesium and calcium, the vitamins, and portability. What you gain: the price. We would rather tell you that than let you believe a stick is essential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs it the same as an ORS from the pharmacy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo, and the confusion is common. An oral rehydration solution is intended to make up for dehydration of medical origin — diarrhoea, vomiting, particularly in children. Its sodium and glucose composition follows a precise protocol. A sports electrolyte drink answers a comfort need during exercise, not a medical situation. In case of real dehydration, the person to talk to is your pharmacist or your doctor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow many sticks a day?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne stick is enough in the vast majority of cases, diluted in 500 to 750 ml of water. On a very long effort in strong heat, a second stick can be justified, drunk gradually rather than all at once. Do not exceed the dose stated on the packaging, which is what counts, and take account of the sodium already supplied by your meals if you follow a low-salt diet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs there sugar or caffeine in it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNeither. That is a point that sets this product apart from a classic sports drink: it brings no carbohydrate and therefore does not replace an energy intake on a long outing. If you are looking for fuel as well as hydration, you need to pair it with a carbohydrate source such as \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/maltodextrine\"\u003emaltodextrin\u003c\/a\u003e or \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/cyclic-dextrin\"\u003ecyclic dextrin\u003c\/a\u003e. The absence of caffeine, on the other hand, means it can be drunk in the evening without affecting sleep.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAre electrolytes needed on a ketogenic diet?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is one of the few situations where the question arises outside sport. The first days of a very low-carbohydrate diet come with a greater than usual loss of water and sodium. Many people concerned increase their salt and magnesium intake for that reason. That said, a dietary change of that scale is something to discuss with a health professional, not with a supplement retailer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere do you find electrolytes?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn food first: mineral waters rich in magnesium, dried fruit, bananas, pulses, nuts and seeds, and quite simply table salt for sodium. As a supplement, from retailers specialising in sports nutrition — that is our aisle — and from pharmacies for medically-oriented solutions, which answer a different need. We stock this product in store and online.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs it suitable for everyone?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis product is intended for adults. It is not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women or for children without medical advice. In case of high blood pressure, kidney or heart failure, a sodium- or potassium-controlled diet, or diuretic treatment, ask your doctor before taking it: an additional mineral intake is not trivial in those situations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAt KISS NUTRITION\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the shelf in \u003ca href=\"\/en\/pages\/nutrition-vendargues\"\u003eVendargues\u003c\/a\u003e, near Montpellier, and shipped throughout France.
