Why sodium comes first
Sweat carries far more sodium than any other mineral, so a drink with only a trace of it does little to replace what you lose in training, heat or a sauna. That is why both our formulas start with a full 500mg. Potassium contributes to normal muscle function, and magnesium contributes to electrolyte balance and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
Daily reference intakes, UK and US
UK: the NRV is 2,000mg for potassium and 375mg for magnesium, and the NHS advises adults to have no more than 6g of salt a day (about 2.4g of sodium). US: the NIH Office of Dietary Supplements gives an Adequate Intake for potassium of 3,400mg for men and 2,600mg for women, a magnesium RDA of 400 to 420mg for men and 310 to 320mg for women, and US guidelines advise keeping sodium under 2,300mg a day. If you follow a low-sodium diet, have a kidney or heart condition or take blood pressure medication, speak to your doctor before using an electrolyte supplement.
Tested, batch by batch
Every batch is made in the UK under GMP and checked by an independent lab before it ships. You can read the results for each product on our testing page.
Electrolytes: common questions
Who are electrolytes for?
Anyone who sweats a lot (training, hot weather, saunas), people following keto, low-carb or fasting routines, and anyone who finds plain water is not enough on long or hot days. Our guide to low electrolytes covers the signs to look for.
When should I take them?
Before or during exercise, first thing in the morning if you fast or eat low-carb, or after a heavy sweat. See how to take electrolytes.
Can I take electrolytes every day?
Yes, one serving a day suits most people. Read can you drink electrolytes every day for who should check with their GP first.
Do they contain sugar?
No. The powder is sweetened with stevia and the capsules are unsweetened. Here is why we chose stevia.
How do they compare with LMNT and Liquid IV?
We put them side by side in LMNT vs Liquid IV vs Ultimate Electrolytes.
