How 30 Days of LMNT Changed My Body

[@theplantbasedteacher]

What are your thoughts about LMNT and other electrolyte mixes? Let us know in the comments!

[@erikknudson3077]

I drink it just because of the carnivore diet. I drink one pack throughout the whole day. stop fearing salt. you have been duped like the rest of the sheep.

[@SometimesImAnAthlete]

I agree with your assessment. I'm an ultra-endurance cyclist. I don't drink LMNT everyday or even every long ride. But if it's hot or I know the route I'm taking is going to be hard, I do use one packet at the start and on a really long or hard ride, a second later in the day if I've been sweating a lot. I've been prone to cramping and muscle spasms and have tried tablets (salt and products like enduralytes) and they don't work for me. You can feel a cramp starting to build and LMNT is the only product I've tried that stops the cramping within 5 to 10 minutes. Chug a bottle and cramping goes away. It's pretty amazing. I'm not sponsored BTW, I just like the product. A word of warning though... if it's not hot or you haven't been sweating a lot, too much LMNT too fast will cause GI issues, at least for me. So I tend to just use one packet unless I feel a cramp coming on.

[@SaffyFoo]

I’m disabled and have dreadful spasms, especially during sleep. I had a pack and used it for 27 days. I ran out and due to the cost… tried some other cheaper versions. They did not work. After three days of not having any Lmnt, my cramps were so bad… Did an emergency purchase and I’m finally up and moving It’s fantastic 😊

[@jozefien1702]

have you tried magnesium that could maybe help you try a good magnesium NOT oxide but bisglycinate, citrate or taurate forms of magnesium i am a big fan of transdermal so i put magnesium chloride oil on my skin 2 to 4 sprays a day for me works great

[@FullSendFabrication]

LMNT has their recipe on their website if you wanna try to make your own for cheaper. I just got some and the prices are lame. Amazing product!! Lame pricing.

[@dollygalbreath2509]

LMNT shares its raw recipe on their ‘Q +A’ section, so that you can make the right ratio of potassium, mag and sodium at home if you wanted.

[@AnneAlready]

Extra bonus - homemade doesn't contain the maltodextrin that LMNT does not disclose on their labels of their flavored varieties because they're not required to.

[@MarianDouglasUngaro]

You didn’t address when people are doing slightly prolonged fasting- like 24 to 48 hours, or somewhat longer, up to, say, three to five days. Five days exactly is 120 hours, which I have done. Electrolytes become really important during slightly to moderately prolonged fasts. Thank you!

[@Chadee_N]

A lot of brands would break the fast tho. Whether containing calories or sugar to spike sugar levels

[@neilkaufman1809]

You can get the unflavored, which won't break your fast. The flavored have stevia, malic acid and citric acid. The unflavored don't have any additives.

[@EIDLExperts]

I’ve started fasting and this product came highly recommended for fasting periods. I tried it for the first time at the tail end of an 18 hour fast and I could feel a difference big time. But I could have also been from the walk and rowing sesh.

[@logicalparadox2897]

Correction: it's not "a gram of salt". It's 1,000 mg (1 gram) of SODIUM. I'm sure you know this and just said "salt" when you meant sodium. Our common vernacular annoyingly interchanges these terms, so it's understandable. To those who don't know: salt is sodium CHLORIDE (NACL). So a gram of salt is not a gram of sodium, it's actually only

[@redstone1999]

On a 2000 calories/day diet. It is recommended to get 2400mg (2.4g) of sodium. That is easily to do with commercial foods.

[@Ash12428]

I personally like this drink because I wake up and almost immediately go on a run. Eat some dates or bananas and drink one of these, feels better than raw dogging it.

[@DangerZone-w6y]

LMNT: Uses Maltrodextrin as a binding agent in their flavored packets: Maltodextrin can have several potential health risks, including: Blood sugar spikes Maltodextrin has a higher glycemic index (GI) than table sugar, which means it can cause blood sugar to spike shortly after eating. This can lead to a spike in insulin, a hormone that helps regulate blood sugar levels. Gut bacteria balance Maltodextrin can reduce the number of good bacteria and increase the number of harmful bacteria in your gut. This can lead to intestinal damage and increase the risk of inflammatory bowel diseases like Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Maltodextrin can also suppress the growth of probiotics, which are important for immune system function.

Lmnt is more for people doing keto and carnivore because they are close to zero carb diet which makes them lose electrolytes faster than normal diet people. So yes, they are worth the hype for that lifestyle.

[@dawnshea8649]

My spouse and I really like LMNT. We found that for someone with Crohn's or lots of liquid output (like when one is sick) this is the best way to feel better fast with the possible exception of a saline/mixed infusion. Also, water down your drink. We use a packet with about 30 oz. Of (yes COLD) water for optimal flavor. And I do love the mango jabanero, but not everyone loves heat. 😅 Your videos are getting better btw! Pacing and editing helps a lot!

[@claudiafairbanks]

I have POTS and the cardiologist suggests drinking 3000 - 4000 mg of sodium of day. LMNT puts a formula on their website for those who would like to make it themselves. You can tailor it to your own needs based on your labs and a convo with your doctor. I add citric acid and lemonade to cover the salty flavor. It is definitely a little tart. Making it myself is a lot cheaper!

[@kp4376]

I’m a fairly active endurance athlete (running, swimming, biking) and average about 7-10 hours of dedicated workouts per week. I do t drink this daily, but typically have a packet on the days that I run and I feel like I’ve definitely benefited from it. I like to add a packet to a half gallon of water and sip on it throughout the day, which helps with my overall water intake.

[@redstone1999]

When I am doing my 1/2 acre garden by hand tools or cutting 5 cords of firewood, I do the same. My body hates straight water, makes my mouth dry and thirsty (even if my belly is bloated with water). I also add 1/4 pack to my 2 L of diluted pure fruit juice jug I drink through out the day.

[@ricardodiaz6187]

I use the raw. I enjoy it in a standard coffee mug with chilled water for extra saltiness. I only got this product because I’m experimenting with the carnivore diet. I’m happy so far….

Better to dilute some high mineral content salt in water and drink that. Pink Himalayan & Celtics sea salt are said to have 82+ minerals. That's what we need.

[@nosoup9146]

Question: I'm a runner in a hot climate should I take a pack before or after my run?

[@theplantbasedteacher]

Honestly it comes down to how you're feeling. You could try "pre-loading" beforehand (either in the morning or 30-60 minutes before training) and see if your body responds well. Or, if you usually feel fine during your workouts, replenishing after is nothing to worry about either! With hydration and electrolytes it really comes down to keeping up with it throughout the day and addressing when you feel especially thirsty. Hope this helps, even if it's not a black/white answer!

Carnivore only here. But I do believe in electrolytes. I think everybody's jumping on this and trying to say LMNT is a terrible thing now just because of this misstating, and not stating of the correct amount of maltodextron. The 400 mg is nothing when you consider that a teaspoon of sugar has 4,000 mg. And the truth is that LMNT does work and it does help people. Oh the big Pharm and the farting cow people or probably just loving all this because they want the carnivore and the keto people to stop getting healthier

[@KTquiltsandsews]

I stopped wasting money on expensive electrolyte powders. Once a day I squeeze two wedges of lemon into a 16 oz glass of water with a pinch of Himalayan pink salt.

[@MikeycatOutdoors]

I only use electrolytes when I'm doing a long backpacking trip where I'm sweating out lots of sodium. For normal days, I don't need the extra electrolytes. With LMNT, I mixed it with a full liter of water to water it down a bit or its just too salty. I'll doctor up one bottle and alternate with a bottle of regular water while hydrating on trail.

[@chrisdonnell2575]

I think I'll give it a try. It's been a few months are you still using them? What's your overall favorite two flavors? We have a sauna and I'm starting to use it more I can lose 3lbs of water in there and I definitely need this for after the sauna sessions!

[@jennifermaggio7784]

I’m just trying it today. It is very salty. I had to add alot of water to it in order to dilute it a lot! So it makes me drink more water so that’s good! I do have a job where I sit down all day and I have been getting a lot of leg cramps at night.

[@tatianastorchak4980]

I bought it yesterday to try. Today after your video I put orange flavour pack in 1litre of cold water, drank just about 3/4 of glass, and in 10 minutes headache is gone! Wow, I didn’t know it will have such effect on me, but it did, and it tastes like a summer drink, not bad at all. Can not say anything else, but this “magic” impressed me, may be I didn’t have enough electrolytes, but I take magnesium every day, good dose, 500mg. Probably something about a balance of them

[@fredhartman1325]

I mix 1/4 tsp. of Redmond's Real Salt, which is 530mg of sodium, plus 1/4 tsp. of NoSalt sodium free salt, which gives 690mg of potassium, in water, and drink wth two magnesium glycinate capsules, which gives 175mg of magnesium. May adjust this in future.

[@HidInMistProductions]

Just bought some because one of my medication is really really dehydrating no matter how much I drink 😒 and the watermelon flavor is the only one I found that doesn't have citric acid (which makes me process my medication too quickly).

This is the first video of yours I’ve seen so I don’t know your views on coffee but I put about a 3rd of a packet of the chocolate in my morning 10oz cup of Joe. I’m not an athlete or do any type of strenuous lifting but I happen to be a 50 + woman who perspires walking the dog, cleaning, doing yard-work etc. Also prone to leg cramping. Since I also have routine colonoscopies every 3 -5 years & most other flavors of this brand or others I’ve tried tastes like that dreaded gallon jug of solution I need to drink in prep for those, I find them intolerable. A few I can drink when mixed in a 32 oz water bottle filled with ice but never the unflavored. So I pass on consuming them. Thanks for the review.

This is for Keto, less than 20g of carbs a day. You don’t need it if you’re high carb. You should know that if you are a nutrition coach, Carbohydrates retains your salt unlike if you’re Keto(super low carbs) this review is biased.

[@Sparky-m6h]

About 8:25 in the video he talks about how people realistically can get enough electrolytes through eating the right foods. Then he listed those foods. So he does know what he's talking about. He also discussed level of activity from person to person makes a difference. How much a person sweats etc.

[@d4nkdesu]

I personally struggle with drinking water normally and then while looking for something to flavour water I came across electrolyte mixes. Would you suggest the use of such once a day in a very diluted bottle of water just so i can add some relatively sweeter flavour to it. Or any other recommendations considering I just walk for an hour everyday for physical activity along with very light workouts every other day.

[@CabanaD]

I take 1 packet daily and no question noticed differences between just adding a little salt to water. I have much better sleep, no cramping, and my mood is much better.

[@DC-FGC]

tbh the high amount of sodium compared to the other 2 confuses me. DRA sodium is 2300mg and potassium is 3400mg(though I do accept that you need more, especially on certain diets and/or if you exercise a lot). So you need less sodium, *and* it's easier to get(much, much easier), and they give you 1000mg. You need *more* potassium, *and* it's harder to get, but they only give you 200mg? As the kids say, the math ain't mathing. It still tastes good, tho. I don't mind the saltiness at all, and the watermelon and citrus flavors are superb. Orange and raspberry were also nice. Some of the flavors were weird - mango chili tasted like spicy grapefruit, and the actual grapefruit flavor didn't taste like much of anything at all(generic "fruit" flavor that wasn't even recognizably citrus).

A lot of people are magnesium deficient which is why you see so many reviews that describe this product as life changing, it's definitely worth supplementing magnesium.

I’m trying to find something that doesn’t have a ton of sodium because I have kidney disease I get severely dehydrated all the time. And the myth about water is a myth. I drank nothing but water for years and I mean a considerable amount daily. Doctors still say you are severely dehydrated. So I need something that will hydrate me but with the least amount of sodium possible. Any suggestions I would greatly appreciate it. I stay thirsty all day long and night. So I keep water on my night stand. I do not have a fluid restriction, and I’m not on dialysis. I have one kidney that is on a by pass. So I need to keep my electrolytes up. Can’t have a lot of bananas. But anything else I can. No chocolate, no caffeine. I’ve done plant based before but again I have to be careful with the sodium. Any suggestions would be great. Thank you!

[@theplantbasedteacher]

Thanks for sharing! So take this with a grain of salt (pun intended...gotta practice dad jokes for future kids). If you're eating a well-balanced diet there's a good chance you're getting the sodium you need through that. In addition to sodium, spinach, pumpkin seeds, cashews, and most beans are good sources of magnesium, which can round out your electrolyte profile. One other thing to consider is the sugar mix. Hydration isn't just sodium, it's also glucose. So adding a small amount of maple syrup with a tall glass of water could potentially help, hypothetically. Hope you find this useful!

I’m no doctor, but I’m pretty sure your urine was darker because more water was being absorbed into your blood. Meaning it was actually hydrating you instead of going in and out

[@toddkobylarz4758]

That packet is way too much for a half liter bottle of water...tastes terrible. Half a packet per bottle tastes way better. Just drink two bottles over time.

[@theplantbasedteacher]

Yep when I take it now I use about 1/3 a packet to spread it out!

[@basiltiffani8850]

1g of salt? Wow.

[@dan-312]

Leave plant-based. Go carnivore. Then you'd want to have electrolytes to find your optimal self.

Mango habanero is the best

[@sans1440]

You lost me when you said plant based. I’m into complete nutrition

[@those_eyes]

Thats why too strong!!! I use a packet with about 32 oz or more of water!

[@theplantbasedteacher]

Great idea!

1 gram of salt is so tiny....weigh out a gram on your scale...a fraction of a teaspoon...especially if you work hard, sweat hard

[@EricHoes]

The mango tastes like a mangonada with a tamarind straw. Good stuff!

[@tnpermaculture2130]

Never value the opinion from a grown man on a "plant based diet"

[@Kain9407]

Or the opinion of someone rando in a cowboy hat talking about things they know nothing about.

[@stevenbelzer9768]

You did nit do ANY pre post blood work dude …WTF ???

[@Knowledge-b6o]

It gave me diarrhea!!!!

[@codysoucy947]

Look at your muscle mass. Quit the plant base

[@joselira9342]

[@jennifermaggio7784]

Yeah maybe I should cut the packet in half
