Curated, not stocked.
LMNT earns its place here because the formulation reflects what the evidence actually supports: meaningful sodium replacement, not a token sprinkle alongside sugar and colouring. Most electrolyte products under-dose sodium while over-relying on carbohydrates. This one does the opposite. We recommend it particularly to athletes, those on lower-carbohydrate protocols, and patients whose clinicians have flagged hydration or electrolyte concerns.
About this product
Recharge Electrolytes - Citrus Salt
LMNT Recharge in Citrus Salt is a sodium-forward electrolyte drink mix designed to support hydration, particularly during exercise, heat exposure, or periods of low carbohydrate intake. Its three-electrolyte formula — sodium, potassium, and magnesium — addresses the minerals most commonly lost through sweat and, in the case of low-carb or fasted states, through increased renal excretion.
Sodium is the primary electrolyte governing fluid balance and plasma volume. LMNT's formulation is intentionally high in sodium relative to many mainstream sports drinks, reflecting a growing clinical understanding that most people — especially active individuals — under-replace sodium rather than potassium or magnesium. Potassium supports neuromuscular function, and magnesium is studied for its role in muscle relaxation and recovery.
This mix suits endurance athletes in heavy training, those following ketogenic or low-carbohydrate diets, people working in hot environments, or anyone whose blood work or symptoms point to chronic under-hydration. It is notably free from added sugar, which makes it a practical option for those managing blood glucose.
The Citrus Salt flavour uses natural flavouring alongside the mineral blend. LMNT is a brand with strong traction in the performance nutrition space, favoured for its straightforward, no-filler formulation philosophy. For anyone serious about optimising hydration rather than guessing at it, it earns a considered place in a daily routine.

How to use
Mix one packet with approximately 500 ml (16 oz) of water. Drink during or after exercise, on waking, or any time fluid and electrolyte needs are elevated. Adjust water volume to taste preference — more water for a lighter flavour, less for a more concentrated mineral hit.

Common questions
Frequently asked
Who is this most suitable for?
It is particularly well-suited to endurance athletes, those following ketogenic or low-carbohydrate diets, people working or exercising in hot environments, and anyone who tends to be a heavy or salty sweater. It is less necessary for sedentary individuals with a standard diet who are already meeting sodium needs through food.
Is it safe to take if I have high blood pressure?
This product is intentionally high in sodium, so it may not be appropriate for people with hypertension or those on sodium-restricted diets. Check with your GP or cardiologist before use if you have a cardiovascular condition or have been advised to limit salt intake.
Can I take this on an empty stomach?
Yes — dissolving the powder in water before drinking is all that is required. Many people use it first thing in the morning, before or during a fasted workout, without any issue.
How does this differ from standard sports drinks like isotonic gels or powders?
Most mainstream sports drinks prioritise carbohydrate delivery and contain relatively low sodium alongside added sugars. LMNT focuses on electrolyte replacement without added sugar, with sodium as the lead mineral — a meaningfully different formulation philosophy aimed at hydration rather than fuel.
How long will one box last?
Check the packaging for the total number of sachets included. Each serving is one packet per roughly 500 ml of water, so usage will depend on how frequently you supplement.
