Label data · how much sodium in electrolyte powder

Electrolyte powders: sodium per serving on every label we carry

Sodium per serving is the whole difference between electrolyte products: 55 mg to 1,000 mg in sticks that look alike. Heavy sweating and long sessions call for the high end; everyday sipping for the low end. The table lists the printed sodium (and potassium where printed) for every electrolyte product we track.

What to check on the label

  • Sodium per serving — the first line to read

High-sodium mixes aren't for everyone: people with high blood pressure or kidney issues should ask a doctor first.
