THE CLEANEST ZERO SUGAR ELECTROLYTES
★★★★★
I'm on a carnivore diet and this is essential to my health. I took the plunge and switched over from LMNT to these guys and WOAH what a game changer. I love the subtle flavor and the monk fruit doesn't upset my stomach. It's not too salty where it's unbearable. I drink them every day in my water. I'm so excited for new flavors to come. I'm a client for life!
★★★★★
I’ve had a difficult time staying hydrated living at high elevation and need daily electrolytes to avoid dehydration, headaches and migraines, lightheadedness, and overall fatigue. Taking this, many of my symptoms are gone. Chose this over LMNT because there is no stevia but tastes just as good.

EVERYTHING YOU NEED,
NOTHING YOU DONT
ELECTROLYTES
Simple & effective formula with efficacious dosages necessary for optimal body functions, LYTES has a complete electrolyte profile to replenish minerals lost through sweat utilizing the highest quality forms.
PINK HIMALAYAN SEA SALT
LYTES uses Pink Himalayan Sea Salt to replace fluids and minerals lost from sweat. Harvested from ancient sea salt deposits found deep in the Himalayan Mountains, the trace minerals found in this salt, such as iron, magnesium, potassium & calcium result in its range of colors.
All of our Himalayan salt is carefully sourced from FDA-registered suppliers. Once it arrives at our suppliers' state-of-the-art facilities, it undergoes a gamut of quality assurance processes to remove any impurities. Our salt is never heated or refined, and contains no additives of any kind. Just the highest quality & most unadultered Himalayan pink salt possible.
POTASSIUM
Important for optimal body functioning, Potassium plays an important role in the nervous system by relaying messages between your brain and body.
Potassium also regulates your muscle contractions, reflexes, heartbeat, and other important bodily functions.
Important for a healthy heart and strong muscles, Potassium must be consumed as the human body cannot produce it.
MAGNESIUM GLYCINATE
We formulated LYTES with the chelated form of magnesium for maximum absorption, better absorbed than cheaper forms of Magnesium. This essential electrolyte works by transporting blood sugars into the muscles to create fuel and energy, while simultaneously disposing of lactate that causes fatigue.
Research shows that most Americans don’t consume enough Magnesium to support an active lifestyle. The fourth most abundant mineral in the human body, magnesium plays a key role in exercise performance.
CHLORIDE
One of the major minerals in your body, Chloride is one of the most important electrolytes found in your blood.
Chloride is responsible for normal cell functioning, fluid balance, and maintaining proper blood volume and body fluids.
ORGANIC MONK FRUIT
Lightly sweetened with 100% Organic Monk Fruit. Unlike store-bought Organic Monk Fruit, our monk fruit contains zero Erythritol and zero Stevia.

I was a subscriber to LMNT for many months but kept dealing with a very upset gut. I tried Lytes for the first time after seeing an ad and LOVE it! I am hooked and getting ready to order another bag. I use it every single day after exercising and have no stomach bloat. Big fan!

Our Lytes contain ZERO calories and will not break your fast!
Mix one serving of LYTES with 8-12oz of ice water before, during, or after training.
Dishonest companies want you to believe that sodium chloride (NaCl) is the equivalent of a naturally occurring salt such as Pink Himalayan Salt, but that is not true. The fact is that sodium chloride (NaCl) is a highly processed and bleached derivative of the starting material sea salt. Because it is so processed, producers must add anti-caking agents such as yellow prussiate of soda (sodium ferrocyanide) to prevent clumping. Here is an example from a major supplier of sodium chloride. Note: yellow prussiate of soda is a food grade anti-caking agent and is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA -- however, we choose to not have any additives in our product.
Short answer: NO.
Glucose can aid in the transportation and absorption of chloride and sodium, but it isn’t necessary for absorption. Your body is able to absorb electrolytes without glucose through other sodium co-transporters. We specifically use the potassium and chloride sodium co-transporters for sodium uptake. This allows our Lytes to be more versatile and used throughout the day as well as during training.
Sodium can be absorbed by the gut through other costransporters such as: phosphorus, potassium and chloride, butyrate, and amino acids.
Athletes and individuals pushing the limits can lose upwards of 7,000mg of sodium per day through sweat. LYTES is designed to replenish these lost electrolytes. Although government guidelines recommend Americans to consume no more that 2,300mg of sodium per day, it’s not enough and is in fact linked to higher blood pressure [1]. Studies show that 5,000mg of sodium per day is the ideal amount for ideal health [2].
We know there's a lot of confusion around flavors. That's why we source our lemon flavor from real lemons utilizing a spray dry process that turns liquid fruit extracts into a fine dry powder that is clean, tastes amazing and shelf-stable.
We choose to use Pink Himalayan Salt as our source of sodium and trace minerals instead of a highly processed ingredient like sodium chloride. Natural salts such as Pink Himalayan Salt are generally not as "salty" tasting as sodium chloride. Another reason why we don't use sodium chloride is that manufacturers include anti-caking agents such as yellow prussiate of soda in order to keep the salt crystals from clumping. We don't have that problem with Pink Himalayan Salt and we'd rather have a more natural product.
When customers use the recommended 12oz of water, 99% of the time they love it. The more they stray from our recommendations, the more the flavor profile is going to change. If you'd like a saltier profile, we recommend reducing your water to 10oz. Natural products such as ours will not be as overpowering as other products. If you're using more than 12oz, we recommend using two sticks to get the ideal flavor.
Yes, our Pink Himalayan Salt is 3rd party tested for Arsenic, Cadmium, Copper, Chromium, Lead, and Mercury.
Yes! Lytes uses clean, natural ingredients. Kids need electrolytes too, just not as much. We recommend using half a stick for children since their electrolyte requirements are lower.
Our Himalayan salt is harvested from the Salt Range, which runs from Jalalpur - Khewra - Makhrach - Lilla- Qaidabad to Mianwali, all part of the Himalayan Mountain Range. The salt is mined in the traditional Pillar & Dome method, as with all commercially exported Himalayan salt. In this method, openings or cross-cuts are created perpendicular to the length of the rooms to connect the rooms at planned intervals. Salt pillars are left in place to provide structural support for the overlying roof and other layers.
All Himalayan salt mines are begun with an initial explosive blast to create an opening in the mountain where the mining can begin. The actual mining of the Himalayan salt is done with axes by hand and carried out of the mines to be crushed, rinsed, and screened.
The salts are then brought into our supplier's Washington State facility where they undergo an intensive quality process. Included in this process is third-party laboratory testing, which includes mineral and microbial testing. This testing shows that there is no trace of residual explosives material in the salt.
Companies who claim that explosives were not used in the process of how they have obtained their Himalayan Salt are commonly called “scrappers,” meaning that they take the left-over debris from other certified miners. You cannot extract Himalayan Salt without an initial explosive blast.
We've partnered with a supplier who utilizes the most cutting-edge technology in the industry. They use optical color sorters to control the quality of our salts, without washing away minerals or damaging the integrity of the salt crystals. Their optical cleaning method employs cameras to capture each grain of salt in real time. It then instantaneously reviews the salt crystals to ensure that each and every one meets our strict quality guidelines. This technology is so advanced it can detect foreign particles smaller than a grain of sand and identify color variations to remove discolored particles. If the salt grain is rejected, an air jet blasts that specific grain of salt, removing it from the rest of the sea salt without harming the premium salt grains in any way. The perfect grains of salt are left untouched. This process is all-natural and chemical-free. Here is a photo of the operations.

- HCHeather C.Verified BuyerGender FemaleAge Range 35 - 444 days agoGender FemaleAge Range 35 - 44ReviewingLYTESRated 5 out of 5 starsA game changer as a personal trainer and a breast-feeding, Mama!
As a fitness professional and trainer, I'm always on the lookout for products that support optimal performance and recovery for myself and my clients. Recently, I had the opportunity to try out a new electrolyte packet brand, and I have to say, I'm impressed.
What caught my attention first was the focus on clean ingredients. This electrolyte packet is formulated using some of the best sources out there – Sodium from Pink Himalayan Sea Salt, Potassium, Magnesium Glycinate, and Chloride. These are essential electrolytes that play a crucial role in hydration, muscle function, and overall performance.
One of the things I appreciate most about this product is the absence of sugar and carbs. With zero sugar and zero carbs, it's perfect for those following a low-carb or keto lifestyle, as well as anyone looking to avoid unnecessary additives in their diet.
But what really sets this electrolyte packet apart is the use of 100% Organic Monk Fruit as a sweetener. Not only does this provide a hint of sweetness without the need for sugar or artificial sweeteners like erythritol, but it also adds a unique flavor profile that I found refreshing and enjoyable.
After incorporating this electrolyte packet into my routine, I noticed a significant improvement in my hydration levels, endurance, and overall performance during workouts. I am also a breast-feeding mama of 5 months now. I truly believe LYTES Has helped me maintain my overall health as well as milk supply during this demanding…
