Dehydration often goes hand in hand with the loss of electrolytes, particularly in the examples mentioned above. “Whether you’re sweating from exercise or sweating from a fever, you’re losing electrolytes and fluid — and over time it will cause dehydration,” says Patton. This product contains a high amount of added sugar, designed for those actively burning energy in more moderate to intense exercise settings.

This product is higher in sodium with 485 milligrams per one scoop serving, making it a good choice for athletes or those exercising for prolonged periods with fluid loss through sweat. It also contains smaller amounts of potassium, chloride, calcium, and magnesium, as well as zinc and B12. It also contains taurine, an amino acid that may improve exercise output and muscle recovery—however, the research on this particular substance is limited. Things to Consider E. R. Logan, E. M.

Texture: We reviewed the texture of each product, noting if it was thin and smooth, or clumpy, grainy, separated, or otherwise unpleasant. For electrolyte drops and powders, we reviewed the dissolubility of the product, noting how long it took to dissolve in water (and if it dissolved completely), how much stirring was required, and if there was any product left at the bottom of the glass. Value: We assessed the value, analyzing the cost in the context of the quality of the product, use and taste experience, and amount of servings per container. Rienzi SC, Britton RA.

The lid is also recycleable if you pop the silica balls out from the top. This can be done by removing the cardboard protective layer inside the lid.

Like this product a lot. On long rides I go out with two bottles, one with an energy/electrolyte drink like SIS GO, but there are times when your body just doesnt seem to want any more sweet energy stuff. This works as a very thirst quenching (and effective electrolyte replacement) alternative. The caffeine-enhanced one tastes pretty foul though.The hydration drink contains Vitamin C which contributes to the normal function of the immune system, the protection of cells from oxidative stress, and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Magnesium contributes to a reduction of tiredness and fatigue, electrolyte balance and normal protein synthesis. In addition to sodium, it contains very small amounts of potassium, magnesium, and calcium (<1% Daily Value), and 3% DV of chloride per drop, which is lower than other products on our list. It does provide a B-vitamin boost with vitamins B1, B5 and B6 as well as plant-based antioxidants. The only additional ingredients in this product are purified water and organic citric acid.

We tried the Peach Bellini, which has a subtle but refreshing peach flavor that is not overly salty. It tastes slightly sweet from the stevia, but is not overpowering. We also like that it is smooth to drink, with no clumps or graininess when mixed with water. H.-J. Buysch, Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

There is no Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for electrolyte drinks, but there are established recommendations for the minerals they contain. The recommended amount differs by age, sex, and overall health, and will also differ for people who are pregnant or lactating.
