I see it all the time. People bail out on fasting because they’re suffering from unpleasant symptoms. To be clear, fasting isn’t for anyone. However, many folks miss out on the benefits of fasting because they experience unpleasant symptoms that are preventable with proper electrolyte support.
No, low sodium isn’t the only cause of fasting headaches, fatigue, hair loss, and insomnia. For example, if you go from a high-sugar diet to a strict fasting protocol, the transition won’t be easy. Your metabolism needs time to fat-adapt.

Most people get that. Fewer people know that their unpleasant symptoms are rooted in an electrolyte deficiency. This happens because your kidneys excrete electrolytes at a higher rate while fasting, or on a low-carb diet. This is often referred to as the “keto flu”.
Here’s the good news: If electrolyte deficiency is causing the unpleasant symptoms, you can remedy the suffering rather quickly.

Fasting depletes sodium levels like nothing else. When you fast, your insulin levels drop and your kidneys excrete more sodium. This “natriuresis of fasting” can cause sodium deficiency and lead to unpleasant symptoms like muscle cramps, headaches, and fatigue.
One problem: I can’t recommend most electrolytes drinks on the market. The added sugar will break your fast and they often contain artificial ingredients, coloring, fillers, and other questionable ingredients. Plus, the quantity and ratio of electrolytes miss the mark in terms of what our body needs while on a low-carb diet, fasting, or working out.

That’s why my go-to electrolyte drink is LMNT. It tastes great, delivers a meaningful dose of electrolytes, and contains no sugar, no artificial ingredients, no coloring, or any other junk that I wouldn’t want to consume.
My favorite flavors are citrus and raspberry…but I like them all and enjoy switching them up for some variety.

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, LMNT Recharge was born.
Stay Salty,
Robb Wolf & The LMNT Team
