As a nutritionist and personal trainer, proper hydration is one of the first things I look at when working with a client. Staying properly hydrated means you’re supporting the health of your skin, kidneys, brain, liver, lungs, digestive organs, and joints, among other things. One study even showed that a loss of 2% of body weight due to dehydration can impact everything from athletic performance to your mood, memory, and ability to focus. No matter who you are, staying properly hydrated is a cornerstone habit that will benefit how you feel each day and your long-term health.

When we think about hydration, water immediately comes to mind. But being hydrated is not as simple as just drinking a ton of water. In fact, overwatering can even lead to serious problems, such as hyponatremia. When we drink too much water, we dilute our blood sodium levels, which can cause unpleasant symptoms such as headaches, fatigue, mood swings, and muscle cramps.
The takeaway is this: drink to thirst - and don’t forget to replace electrolytes. Many of my clients drink plenty of water, but forget about electrolytes. Not only will this help eliminate dehydration symptoms like headaches and muscle cramps, it’s essential for keeping our brain, muscles, and organs functioning properly.

My hydration routine begins right when I wake up every morning - the first thing I do when I get out of bed is grab a packet of LMNT and add it to one liter of water. I drink it while I take my morning supplements and get ready for the busy day ahead.

It has helped so much with my energy levels while eating a lower-carb, mostly carnivore diet. Since my diet is so low in sodium, it replenishes the vital electrolytes and minerals that I so desperately need. My clients who are mineral deficient have also benefited from LMNT - I’ve seen their energy and pain symptoms improve dramatically when adding a packet into their daily routine.
On top of all that, LMNT has been an absolute game changer for my adventurous and active lifestyle. When I travel to higher altitude locations or if I’ve had a tough workout, I sneak in an extra packet to help with any lightheadedness or fatigue I might be susceptible to otherwise. My favorite flavor is Raspberry Salt, but Mango Chili is a close second - I make sure to have at least one of each packet with me at all times in case I ever need an extra hydration boost throughout the day!
We developed LMNT Recharge because we were frustrated with the lack of healthful electrolyte products on the market. We were fielding questions daily from people in our communities struggling to get adequate electrolytes, but could not recommend anything on the market.
The hard truth is that available electrolyte products are high in sugar and woefully lacking in actual electrolytes. Based on the latest nutritional science, getting adequate electrolytes through these products equates to over 100 grams of added sugar per day. We don’t think anyone needs this amount of sugar.
For years our recommended solution was to buy electrolytes in bulk and make your own electrolyte home-brews. After spending too many hours meticulously measuring and mixing our own electrolyte homebrews and getting stopped by airport security one too many times for carrying dozens of baggies full of white powder, LMNT Recharge was born.
