Curated, not stocked.
LMNT earned its place here because it treats electrolyte replenishment seriously rather than as a vehicle for sugar and flavouring. The sodium-forward formula reflects the actual physiology of sweat loss, and the absence of added carbohydrates makes it genuinely versatile. We recommend it particularly for athletes in heavy training blocks, those following low-carb protocols, and anyone whose blood work or symptoms suggest they are under-salting.
About this product
Recharge Electrolytes - Orange Salt
LMNT Recharge in Orange Salt is a sugar-free electrolyte drink mix built around a high-sodium formula with added potassium and magnesium. Unlike most sports drinks, it skips the carbohydrates and sweeteners, making it suited to people following low-carbohydrate or ketogenic diets, where electrolyte losses tend to be greater than average.
Sodium is the primary electrolyte lost through sweat and the one most likely to affect performance and wellbeing when depleted. LMNT's formulation leans into this with a notably higher sodium content than conventional electrolyte products — a deliberate choice grounded in exercise physiology and the needs of those in heavy training. Potassium and magnesium support nerve conduction and muscle function, rounding out the core electrolyte triad.
This product suits endurance athletes, those training in hot conditions, anyone on a low-carb diet experiencing headaches or fatigue, or people recovering from illness involving fluid loss. It sits neatly in a performance routine: before, during, or after exercise, or first thing in the morning if you train fasted.
LMNT has built a following in sports nutrition and clinical low-carb communities for its no-compromise approach — nothing added that isn't functional. The Orange Salt flavour uses natural flavouring. It is one of the more credible options in a category full of products that prioritise taste over electrolyte delivery.

Common questions
Frequently asked
Why does this have so much sodium compared to other electrolyte drinks?
Sodium is the electrolyte lost in the greatest quantity through sweat, yet most commercial sports drinks contain relatively little. LMNT's formulation reflects this physiology more accurately, which is especially relevant for endurance athletes and people on low-carbohydrate diets, where sodium excretion tends to be higher.
Is this suitable if I follow a ketogenic or low-carb diet?
Yes — it is one of the more popular electrolyte choices in low-carb communities. Carbohydrate restriction reduces insulin levels, which in turn increases sodium and fluid excretion through the kidneys, raising daily electrolyte requirements. This product adds no sugar or carbohydrates.
Can I take this if I have high blood pressure?
If you have been advised to restrict sodium intake for cardiovascular or renal reasons, speak with your GP or clinician before using a high-sodium electrolyte product. This is not suitable for unsupervised use in that context.
How long will one box last me?
Check the packaging for the total packet count per box, then divide by your intended daily or weekly use. A single packet per training session is a common starting point.
Does it contain anything other than electrolytes and natural flavouring?
The listed ingredients are sodium, potassium, magnesium, and natural flavours. Check the current packaging for a full ingredient and allergen declaration, as formulations can change.
