Stop paying for podcast ads. Start paying for electrolytes.

1,000mg sodium. Science-backed doses. Made in the USA. Here's the data.

The Metric That Matters

When you buy electrolytes, you're buying sodium. It's the mineral that actually rehydrates you.

But price per serving varies wildly — and servings aren't equal. A $0.70 serving with 300mg sodium is not the same as a $0.78 serving with 1,000mg.

The only metric that matters: what you pay per gram of sodium. We calculated it for every brand.

"The difference is we don't spend millions on podcast sponsorships."

Salt Is Not The Enemy

A 2021 study in Nutrients found that both too little and too much sodium increase health risk. The lowest risk zone: 3–5 grams per day — well above the 2.3g most guidelines recommend.
