LMNT Recharge is a tasty electrolyte drink mix that replaces vital electrolytes without sugars and dodgy ingredients found in conventional sports drinks.
The time is ripe to make a splash. Introducing Watermelon Salt, the newest way to stay salty.
Proper hydration is critical for optimizing mental and physical performance.
Hydration is not just about drinking enough water - to stay properly hydrated you need to consume adequate electrolytes. They help your nerve impulses fire, regulate fluid balance, help produce energy, and support strong bones.

One article in the Journal of Sport Science reported:
“Vigorous exercise and warm/hot weather induce sweat production, which contains both water and electrolytes. Daily water (4-10 L) and sodium (3500-7000 mg) losses in active athletes during hot weather exposure can induce water and electrolyte deficits…”
When you’re physically active and sweat, replacing lost sodium is essential to feel and perform your best. But many athletes forget about sodium and drink more water when they feel dehydrated - the more common problem for these folks is drinking too much water, not too little. Overwatering dilutes blood sodium levels, causing a dangerous condition called hyponatremia - which can lead to headaches, muscle cramps, and fatigue.
This deficiency increases even more if you are fasting - when carb intake is low, the kidneys excrete more sodium. In fact, no other dietary strategy out there lowers insulin more than fasting - it’s awful for retaining sodium. This is why those who fast often complain of unpleasant symptoms similar to hyponatremia. For optimal performance, we need to pay attention to electrolyte and mineral intake - and our needs increase even more when we sweat or fast.

When I’m sweating a ton every day on the BJJ mat - especially during a fast - I need to focus on properly hydrating to be able to perform at my best.
When I’m sweating a ton every day on the BJJ mat - especially during a fast - I need to focus on properly hydrating to be able to perform at my best.
Without proper hydration, my active lifestyle often left me feeling exhausted and worn down. Once I got my electrolytes in check with LMNT, the days of cramps and fatigue hindering my performance were long gone. I use it every day before and after training to make sure I’m getting the right amount of electrolytes - it’s been an absolute game-changer for me as a competitive athlete and fitness enthusiast.
After discovering LMNT, I have way less cravings when I’m fasting - and I now recommend it to the athletes I coach who also need electrolytes while training and fasting in a low-carb state. The best part is there’s no sugar in LMNT so it doesn’t break a fast.
Plus, it’s super easy to use and tastes great - Raspberry Salt is by far my favorite. I just stick one packet into my water and I’m ready to keep pushing through my day without any surprise bouts of fatigue.
LMNT Recharge was developed by Robb Wolf and his Ketogains coaches to provide a zero-sugar, tasty electrolyte drink for those on heavy training or fasting regimens.
