Curated, not stocked.
LMNT earned its place here because it takes electrolyte formulation seriously, particularly sodium, which most consumer products under-dose to make a label look clean. For patients in heavy training, on low-carbohydrate diets, or with clinician-confirmed electrolyte losses, a higher-sodium option is often more clinically appropriate than a standard sports drink. The variety pack is how we suggest starting — it removes the guesswork before you commit to a box.
About this product
LMNT Recharge Electrolytes — Variety Pack
A zero-sugar electrolyte drink mix delivering a precise ratio of sodium, potassium, and magnesium in every sachet — the electrolyte profile your body actually needs, not the sugar-laden, mineral-light formulation the sports drink industry has been selling you for decades.
You drink water all day and still feel dehydrated. The headache that arrives by mid-afternoon, the fatigue that has nothing to do with sleep, the muscle cramps during training, the brain fog that lifts only after food — these are not signs that you need more water. They are signs that the water you are drinking is not being retained because it lacks the electrolytes required for cellular absorption. Water follows sodium. Without adequate sodium, potassium, and magnesium, water passes through your system rather than into your cells, and you urinate out what you just drank without your tissues ever benefiting. You are not under-hydrated. You are under-mineralised.
The sports drink market has spent 60 years conditioning consumers to believe that hydration means sugar water with a splash of sodium and a marketing budget. Traditional electrolyte drinks contain 20 to 30 grams of sugar per serving and negligible mineral content — enough sodium to taste salty but nowhere near enough to replace what an active person loses through sweat. Sugar drives insulin, insulin drives sodium excretion through the kidneys, and the drink designed to hydrate you accelerates the mineral loss it was supposed to prevent. Sugar-free alternatives swap the glucose for artificial sweeteners and keep the same inadequate electrolyte profile. You drink them because the branding says "hydration" and your body stays exactly where it was.
LMNT was formulated by Robb Wolf based on the electrolyte science that sports drinks ignore. Each sachet delivers 1000 mg sodium, 200 mg potassium, and 60 mg magnesium — a ratio informed by sweat composition research and the physiological requirements of active individuals, fasters, and anyone following a lower-carbohydrate diet where insulin-mediated sodium retention is reduced. Zero sugar. Zero artificial ingredients. Zero compromise on the mineral content that determines whether hydration actually works. The sodium comes from sodium chloride — salt — because salt is what your body loses most of through sweat and what most electrolyte products dramatically under-deliver. Magnesium is provided as magnesium malate, a highly bioavailable form that contributes to normal muscle function, normal psychological function, and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Potassium chloride supports normal muscle contraction and nervous system signalling. Sweetened with stevia leaf extract. Four flavours in the variety pack — Citrus Salt, Raspberry Salt, Watermelon Salt, and Lemonade — each designed to taste genuinely good, not medicinally tolerable. Mix with still or sparkling water.
Confirmed ketogenic-friendly through glucose monitor testing. 459+ verified reviews. 12 individually wrapped sachets per variety pack — three of each flavour.
People who understand that hydration is an electrolyte problem, not a water volume problem, choose mineral-first formulations over sugar-first sports drinks. It reflects a recognition that what you add to the water determines whether the water actually reaches your cells.

What it does
Benefits
- 01
1000 mg sodium per sachet replaces the primary electrolyte lost through sweat — sodium is the mineral most responsible for fluid retention, blood volume maintenance, and the osmotic gradient that determines whether water enters or bypasses your cells
- 02
200 mg potassium supports normal muscle contraction, cardiac rhythm, and nerve impulse transmission — working in concert with sodium to maintain the electrical potential across every cell membrane in your body
- 03
60 mg magnesium as magnesium malate — a highly bioavailable chelated form that contributes to normal muscle function, normal psychological function, electrolyte balance, normal energy-yielding metabolism, and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue
- 04
Zero sugar eliminates the insulin response that accelerates renal sodium excretion, the blood glucose spike and crash that undermines sustained energy, and the unnecessary caloric load that has no place in a hydration product
- 05
Stevia leaf extract provides clean sweetness without glycaemic impact, artificial chemicals, or the bitter aftertaste associated with lower-quality stevia formulations
- 06
Each flavour uses natural flavourings only — no artificial colours, no artificial sweeteners, no preservatives

How to use
Mix one sachet with 500 ml of water — still or sparkling. Adjust water volume to taste preference; more water for a lighter flavour, less for a stronger one. Drink first thing in the morning to replenish overnight sodium loss. Drink before, during, or after training to replace exercise-induced electrolyte depletion. Drink during fasting windows to maintain electrolyte balance without breaking the fast. Drink in the afternoon when energy and focus dip. One to two sachets daily for most active individuals. Those training intensely, sweating heavily, or following a strict low-carbohydrate diet may benefit from two to three sachets daily. If you have hypertension or kidney disease, consult your doctor before supplementing with high-sodium products. Store in a cool, dry place. The electrolyte drink that finally put the minerals first and the sugar nowhere — because hydration was never about the water.

Common questions
Frequently asked
Who is this most suitable for?
People with higher sodium needs tend to benefit most — endurance athletes, those on ketogenic or low-carb diets, people who sweat heavily, or anyone whose blood work has flagged low electrolytes. It is less necessary for sedentary individuals eating a standard diet, who typically get adequate sodium from food.
Is there sugar in this product?
LMNT Recharge is formulated without sugar. The flavouring comes from natural sources rather than added sweeteners of the glucose or fructose variety, though you should check the current ingredient label on your packet to confirm the full formulation.
Can I take this if I have high blood pressure or a heart condition?
LMNT is sodium-forward, which means it is not appropriate for everyone. If you have hypertension, kidney disease, or a cardiovascular condition, speak to your GP or clinician before using a high-sodium electrolyte product.
How does this differ from standard sports drinks?
Most mainstream sports drinks prioritise carbohydrates and use modest electrolyte levels. LMNT focuses on the minerals themselves — sodium, potassium, and magnesium — without added sugar or significant carbohydrate, making it more suitable for those who want electrolyte replenishment independent of energy intake.
How long will one variety pack last?
Check the packaging for the exact sachet count in your variety pack. Each sachet is a single serving, so the duration depends on how frequently you use it — once daily gives you a straightforward guide.
