I’m so upset…

[rosebuds1111]

@ebarnes Yeah… LMNT rules, unfortunately plus they make spicy flavors.

 

[cherishgodmore]

@rosebuds1111 The spicy ones are SO good.

@ebarnes i work out but never drink electrolytes. I dont even know why its necessary. am I doing something wrong?!

 

[exitworldwide]

@timothy1212 Naw you don't really need them unless you're sweating A LOT from exertion. I use them because I don't like pre-workout and enjoy a little flavoring in my water while I work out.

 

[mgibb320]

@exitworldwide Do yall not salt your food? Seems like normal dietary intake would be sufficient, even for heavy sweaters?

 

[cturtle]

@mgibb320 I’m a super heavy sweater (apparently it’s overall a good thing lol) but the only time I feel like I need electrolytes is when I’m hungover/dehydrated from being sick or something. I think you can get enough sodium from food and maybe some people aren’t hydrating enough before workouts.

 

[topolski18]

@mgibb320 Even if you don’t salt your food, most Americans eat fairly to very processed foods which are so high in sodium they should actually watch their intake

 

[sweetkf]

@timothy1212 I’ve never used them either.

 

[topolski18]

@timothy1212 You’re doing something right - not being a sucker for marketing!

@ebarnes LMNT gives their recipe on their website knowing we are all too lazy to do this.

 

[sandralois]

@kingsolomonskey Well apparently it's because the CEO used to run a blog where he listed these recipes and always got comments that it was "too much effort" to make them, so he founded a company to make them!

 

[jos56fed]

@kingsolomonskey WHAT?! Massive internet hugs, stranger. My desire to be frugal outweighs my laziness, and I will def be using those recipes for my WFH days so I can keep the packets for in-office days and when traveling!!

@ebarnes LMNT all dayyyyyy I have their chocolate caramel salt in my coffee every morning! Their customer service is amazing, too

 

[bear78]

@ebarnes What’s your fave flavor?

I really like the chocolate

 

[ebarnes]

@bear78 The chocolate one was SO GOOD! I'm really loving raspberry

 

[slactweak]

@ebarnes The Mango Chili flavor is

 

[dawn16]

@slactweak One of my favs!

 

[soosh99]

@ebarnes Dr. Stacy Sims has a simple electrolyte recipe that includes salt and a touch of maple syrup, which both quenches thirst and helps hydrate you on a cellular level (if I’m remembering correctly). She has done research on women’s hydration and published articles with her findings. Most hydration studies and recommendations are based on men. Easy to find on Google if interested.

@ebarnes I feel you on this!! I LOVE them too!! I got my husband hooked on them too so we go through them even quicker I don’t drink coffee, so it’s my morning happiness in a cup!

@ebarnes Lmnt vs liquid iv?
