Hydration Elite is a hydration supplement released by Kaged in September 2023. It’s part of Kaged’s Elite Series of supplements and is an upgraded version of Hydra-Charge.

Key changes made to Hydration Elite include the addition of organic cane sugar for electrolyte absorption, vitamin C for immune support, IoniPlex trace minerals for hydration support, and ElevATP for power.

On top of those changes, Hydration Elite also contains more potassium, sodium, and magnesium than Hydra-Charge. This makes Hydration Elite perfect for long workouts where hydration is key.

For those willing to pay a premium, Hydration Elite delivers the goods. For everyone else, Hydra-Charge is still a good choice.

Where to Buy Kaged Hydration Elite

You can buy Kaged Hydration Elite from Kaged’s website and GNC.

Hydration Elite vs Hydra Charge

The main difference between Hydration Elite and Hydra Charge is that Hydration Elite has over twice as much magnesium, about 40% more sodium, and nearly 60% more potassium.

Hydration Elite also has 150 mg of ElevATP for power production and 50 mg of trace minerals to help fight free radicals.

It’s also hard to overlook that Hydration Elite has 30 servings, while Hydra Charge has 60. While you are getting more of the essential electrolytes in Hydration Elite, it’s not quite enough to make up for the price difference. You could take 1.5 servings of Hydra Charge, get similar electrolyte doses, and save a little money.

My Experience

I really enjoyed Hydration Elite and recommend it for long workouts or training in the heat. It’s also a good choice for athletes that are competing in long matches.

Effects

I noticed that I was less thirsty during my training sessions when I took Hydration Elite at the beginning. So I’d say it works!

Scoop size

A level scoop is a full serving of Hydration Elite.

Flavor

I tried the lemon lime flavor, which was quite pleasant. It’s good to mix with other flavors or tasty on its own.
