Beyond Hydration: Disrupting Electrolytes with Gary Kleinman

Andy Feltovich Episode 7

In this episode of Orthodox Apostasy, host Andy Feltovich sits down with Gary Kleinman, founder and CEO of Electrolyte Boost — a company reinventing one of the most basic sports nutrition categories. Designed initially for gamers, the product now serves diverse audiences from surgeons to fighter pilots — anyone who needs functional hydration without the bathroom breaks.

They discuss how Electrolyte Boost starts where competitors stop, building on hydration with an added “hero ingredient”: Cognizin® citicoline for improved mental performance. The biggest innovation by far, though, is the delivery system: Waterless Delivery Technology™. In the tradition of "if I can dream it — you can do it," Gary shares how he partnered with the Founding Mother of sports nutrition and current Chief Science Officer of Electrolyte Boost, Dr. Susan Kleiner, to achieve the heretofore impossible: a waterless electrolyte delivery solution.

🔻 What You’ll Learn:
• How Waterless Delivery Technology™ works — and why it’s not just for minimizing potty breaks
• The role of Cognizin® citicoline in boosting attention, memory, and focus — and why choline supplementation matters
• Why third-party testing is critical in sports nutrition
• Surprising real-world use cases — from POTS patients to truck drivers, disaster relief workers, and elite military units
• Entrepreneurship lessons — owning your mission, resisting cost-cutting compromises, and getting comfortable with risk
