Working out in the heat adds to that need to replace lost electrolytes (especially salts).
There are a number of electrolyte products filling the gap - some quite terrible and loaded with sugar, toxic dyes and other junk you don't need. Then there are others that don't have the sugar and other crap BUT they taste downright repulsive.
There are few that do it right. LMNT is at the top of that list.
What most of the popular electrolyte drinks on the market do wrong is include too low amounts of electrolytes and miss the mark on the "optimal ratio". A main benefit of LMNT is that it get's that ratio right without anything extra. LMNT electrolytes come in a variety of flavors so tasty, you might just end up with a little addiction.
What's in LMNT?
They give you more electrolytes in the ideal ratio:
- 1000 mg SODIUM
- 200 mg POTASSIUM
- 60 mg MAGNESIUM
Pioneered by Robb Wolf (biochemist and 2X New York Times/WSJ Best Selling author of The Paleo Solution and Wired To Eat), LMNT has taken the latest science and formulated an electrolyte mix that hits all the right salty notes in what the body actually needs (and doesn't need).
How to Use LMNT Electrolytes:
LMNT electrolyte mixes are easy to use, just drop a pack of your favorite flavor in your water bottle, shake and drink. They mix easily and won't get clumpy. You can adjust the flavor or saltiness concentration by adding more or less water to your preference. Drink one at the beginning of your workout and/or rehydrate with it post-workout. We also love making it a priority in the morning before coffee to get the adrenal system firing. Enjoy and be salty... the good kind.
