Cure helped popularize “clean ingredient” hydration, and we respect the work. Here’s where doingwell goes a step further on sodium, sweetener choice, magnesium dose, and banned substance testing.
The side-by-side
-
Sodium per stick: doingwell 1,000 mg (Performance) / 500 mg (Mango 500) · Cure Hydration mid-sodium (varies by SKU)
-
Potassium: doingwell 220 mg · Cure ~300 mg (from coconut water)
-
Magnesium: doingwell 150 mg (DiMagnesium Malate) · Cure lower / not primary
-
Sweetener: doingwell organic monk fruit · Cure organic stevia
-
Banned substance testing: doingwell Certified with Informed Sport (full line — Coconut Lime, Raspberry, Mango 500) · Cure not certified with Informed Sport
-
Athlete positioning: doingwell built around real training & combat sports · Cure general wellness
Why this matters
Clean ingredients are the starting line, not the finish line. doingwell layers in training-appropriate sodium, monk-fruit sweetness instead of stevia, and banned substance testing across the full line — built for people who push themselves and want to know what’s in the stick.
FAQ
Is doingwell organic?
Many of our ingredients are organic (monk fruit, natural flavors, coconut water powder, bamboo silica). The full ingredient list and sourcing are disclosed on every product page.
Why is the sodium higher than Cure?
Because we built the Performance line for heavy sweat sessions. If you want a lower-sodium daily option, our Mango 500 sits at 500 mg per stick.
What about banned substances?
Coconut Lime, Raspberry, and Mango 500 are all Certified with Informed Sport — every batch tested for 285+ substances banned in sport.
