Homebrew

In the many years we spent mixing electrolyte drinks at home before LMNT existed, we made many messes and had quite a few misses, but we also came up with several great recipes. If you prefer to source your own electrolytes instead of buying LMNT, jot this down and grab a kitchen scale:

  • 2,500 mg sodium chloride (for 1,000 mg sodium)
  • 385 mg potassium chloride (for 200 mg potassium)
  • 390 mg magnesium malate OR 265 mg di-magnesium malate (for 60 mg magnesium)

These are the same science-backed electrolyte amounts and ratios in each grab-and-go stick pack of LMNT. It’s the equivalent of our simplest product: LMNT Raw Unflavored. You can use the electrolytes above as a base to create your own recipes (add your own flavor), or simply follow this guide to recreate 4 of our most popular flavors.

Product

Determining how many stick packs or cans to consume daily is quite dependent on the individual. The latest science indicates consuming 4–6 grams of sodium, 3.5–5 grams of potassium, and 400–600 milligrams of magnesium per day leads to optimal health outcomes. These electrolytes are best consumed from whole foods, but we designed LMNT to help fill in any dietary gaps. We hear that many folks find 1-2 stick packs or cans per day to be optimal, often depending on their activity level.

The best approach is to start slow and listen to your body. You'll feel the difference when you get it right.

LMNT is great to use in a variety of situations - we receive feedback across quite a broad spectrum in that regard.

So here's the short answer: The most common usage is first thing in the morning, and about 30 mins prior to a workout, high-intensity activity, or when mental clarity is at a premium. A good thing to remember is when it comes to replacing lost electrolytes–preparing ahead of time is much better than chasing them afterward.

We certainly encourage folks to test out what works best for them, and to let us know–we are always eager for feedback!

Our citric acid is manufactured by a submerged fermentation process which employs a strain of the micro-organism aspergillus niger to convert a dextrose carbohydrate substrate into citric acid. Aspergillus Niger is a ubiquitous, non-GMO, and non-pathogenic organism. The citric acid we use is rigorously tested and does not contain corn. You can read more about citric acid here.
