Electrolyte Mix
Our Lemon Electrolyte Mix is carefully crafted using all-natural ingredients, with absolutely zero artificial flavors or sweeteners. Below you will find the description and reasoning for each ingredient included in our formula.
- Sodium Chloride: Commonly known as table salt, sodium chloride plays a crucial role in maintaining electrolyte balance and hydration levels in the body. Sodium and chloride are the two most abundant electrolytes lost in sweat, so it was absolutely necessary to include this ingredient in our electrolyte formula.
- Potassium Citrate: An electrolyte that helps maintain hydration of the body, supports healthy nervous function, and promotes healthy heart function. Being the third most abundant electrolyte lost in sweat, we believe it is absolutely necessary to include in our mix.
- Magnesium Ascorbate: A non-acidic buffered form of Vitamin C and a source of the essential mineral Magnesium. Being the fourth most abundant electrolyte lost in sweat, we believe it is absolutely necessary to include this ingredient in our electrolyte formula.
- Cane Sugar: While sugar can gets a bad wrap overall, it’s actually beneficial during intense exercise and competition. Simply put, sugar is a carbohydrate and all carbohydrates are broken down into glucose, which is the bodies main fuel source for our muscles. We don't believe in a bunch of added sugar, but we do believe that when performing, sugar is a great fuel source to stay competing at your peak levels.
- Citric Acid: Citric acid is used in our formula to help enhance the flavor profile. If you have ever tasted a lemon, you know the tart and sour taste that comes from it. By using a very minimal amount in our formula, this helps bring that natural tart/sour taste to our lemon electrolyte flavor.
- Stevia Leaf Extract: Stevia is a natural sweetener and sugar substitute that is derived from the leaves of the plant species Stevia rebaudiana. It is about 250-300 times sweeter than sugar itself, so we only needed to add a small amount to complement the overall flavor profile.
- Natural Lemon Flavor: Exactly that! A natural lemon flavor used to bring a tasty flavor profile to our electrolyte mix.
- Silicon Dioxide: A natural anti-caking agent to avoid clumping and hardening in the electrolyte powder. Can be naturally found in leafy green vegetables, beets, bell peppers and brown rice.
