Sport, horko a minerály: proč v létě tělo potřebuje víc než jen vodu

Summer draws us outside, onto a bike, a walk or a longer trip. A pleasant day starts with preparation. Think about the route, water, food and time to rest.

Adapt the plan to the weather and route

A short walk and an all-day trip need different essentials. Check the forecast and options for returning.

Keep drinking water nearby and find out where you can refill it.

In hot weather, plan places for a break away from direct sunlight.

You can adjust the programme to the situation. There is no need to complete a route at any cost.

What to include in practical essentials

Start by considering what you will need during the day.

A water bottle, ordinary food, suitable clothing and a plan for returning. Before a longer journey, check the facilities along your route.

If you use a food supplement, take the original labelled pack and follow its instructions.

Carlsbad Thermal Spring Salt – natural minerals from Karlovy Vary

Carlsbad Thermal Spring Salt is created by evaporating mineral water from the famous Hot Spring (Vřídlo) in Karlovy Vary.

Today’s jars and individual sachets continue the local spa tradition.

Compare each product’s ingredients, contents and conditions of use.

Different activities, different preparation

For a run or cycle ride

Before leaving, plan the route, breaks and places to refill drinking water.

On a hike or in the mountains

For a longer trip, allow extra time and consider an option to return earlier.

By the sea

Prepare water, sun protection and a place to rest for a day at the beach.

After returning

Leave time for an ordinary meal, rest and an unhurried return to the day’s routine.

Essentials and room to rest

A well-prepared day involves more than packing a bag.

Food, water, clothing and breaks should fit your programme.

The longer you spend outdoors, the more useful it is to check available facilities in advance.

How to use Carlsbad Thermal Spring Salt?

Start with the label of the particular product.

Prepare and use it according to the instructions. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose.

A jar, sachets and a tube of tablets are different packaging formats. Keep the original identification when carrying them.

Choose by the particular product

A compact pack can be useful on a journey, but size alone does not determine suitability.

Sport is not a universal recommendation to use a food supplement. Read its ingredients and label warnings.
