OUR HISTORY & VALUES

made by people who sweat, for people who sweat

More than 15 years ago, Jonathan Toker, Ph.D., an elite triathlete and ultrarunner, created SaltStick products to better meet the electrolyte needs of athletes during training and competition. Since then, SaltStick has supported countless people across the world, from weekend warriors to international champions.
