There’s more to hydration than drink when thirsty. This advice neglects specific conditions that impact individual needs and completely ignores a critical piece of the hydration equation… electrolytes. Electrolytes help your nerve impulses fire, regulate fluid balance, help produce energy, and support strong bones.
Severe dehydration can result in symptoms like headaches, muscle cramps, and fatigue. Even mild dehydration negatively impacts day to day performance and recovery of the mind and body.
A hydration strategy is essential for everyone, but especially for people under certain conditions:
I learned the importance of replacing lost sodium the hard way. Over the years I found that a low-carb lifestyle did wonders for my health, but I felt depleted when pursuing my passion in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
When I brought up my problem to my coaches, Tyler and Luis, they simultaneously answered that I needed more electrolytes. And over the years, I’ve helped thousands of folks overcome the same issue in my community.
The problem was, there was nothing on the market that we could recommend. Everything available on the market was woefully lacking in electrolytes or loaded with sugar. For years, we recommended DIY electrolyte homebrew recipes. But this was messy, time-consuming, and made traveling with electrolytes difficult.
So I teamed up with my coaches to create LMNT, a tasty electrolyte drink mix with everything you need and nothing you don’t. I’m partial to the Orange and Raspberry flavors, Nicki likes Citrus and Raspberry, and the girls also love Chocolate!
Problems like insomnia, low energy, headaches, and muscle cramps that many folks have on low-carb, heavy training, or fasting regimens.
It all started when I solved my energy problem. I could hardly believe it, but a lack of sodium had been cramping my mental and physical performance for years. When I ate more salt, not only did my energy skyrocket, but my brain felt sharper than ever.
For years, I would mix up a salty electrolyte blend in my kitchen because nothing on the market could meet my needs (no sugar, no BS ingredients). But I’m a busy guy and mixing home-brews is a pain. I needed a better solution.
So we created LMNT this tasty electrolyte mix with everything you need and nothing you don't (after much trial and error). No sugar, fillers, or other nonsense to interfere with your fast. Just electrolytes in their optimal ratios. Grab a pack of LMNT, mix in your water bottle, and recharge your body.
Stay Salty,
