DIY Electrolyte Recipe

[kalin]

Thought I'd share this since it is super easy to make and super cheap. Might be useful to a few people. I got the recipe straight from LMNT (they give it away for free, even though their product is super expensive). I make a mason jar of the flavour-free version at a time so I always have some on hand.

• 2,500 mg sodium chloride (for 1,000 mg sodium)
• 385 mg potassium chloride (for 200 mg potassium)
• 375 mg magnesium malate (for 60 mg magnesium)

I got the potassium and magnesium in bulk. And I'm pretty sure I can go three years for the cost of a one month's supply of the real deal.

I blend the mix until it the salt is very fine so it dissolves quickly.

Converted to about a mason jar's worth ( x200 )

• 500 g sodium
• 77 g potassium
• 75 g magnesium

Enjoy!

I mainly look at getting potassium in my diet, I don't sweat much from my workouts. Did do hot yoga some years back and would consider electrolyte supplement but didn't.
