I’m sorry for asking such a basic question but the more I think about it - the more I confuse myself.

If salt is NACL, which is sodium chloride… why or how do some sports supplements have 2 different lines as ingredient. It says 650mg sodium, and 840mg chloride. So does the chloride have 190mg leftover ? The nutrition info then proceeds to says contains 1380mg sodium.

So how am I to interpret this ? I’m trying to nail out my hydration for cycling vs how I sweat.

Sorry I tried to post a pic of the label but they aren’t allowed here.
