FAQs

We think about electrolytes differently than EVERY other brand on the market.
And I mean, every single one. I created HYDRATE because all the other electrolyte powders or sport drinks do three things really wrong:

#1 Artificial or so called “natural” flavors
#2 Processed minerals in ridiculous amounts
#3 Offensive amounts of sugar  

We have an entirely different philosophy than every other brand. In the US we pay too much attention to the nutritional panel and the numbers and not the actual ingredients. We believe in quality over quantity.

HYDRATE is formulated with some of the most natural minerals on earth. Nature created the ratio we use. And nature belongs in our bodies. Think table salt (sodium chloride) vs sea salt. Sodium chloride is two extremely processed minerals. When you hear salt is bad for you, it’s this salt they are talking about. Truly natural salt is vital to our health we can’t live without it. Other brands might use 1000mg of sodium chloride and have “more” than us, but sodium chloride can raise your blood pressure to dangerous levels.

When you consume unnatural levels of minerals it creates stress on your kidneys and can cause mineral imbalances. Minerals are so vital to our overall health that we leave the ratio to nature!   

HYDRATE is designed to drink DAILY, not as a 911 after you already have become dehydrated. But it is still the best option in that situation as well; because nature is always the best choice when it comes to our health.

When you consume quality water with truly natural minerals DAILY, dehydration is a thing of the past.

You do not need unnatural levels of electrolytes and minerals. The trick is quality water, natural levels electrolytes + minerals and a good DAILY habit.

In general, you should have 1-2 servings daily for basic maintenance. Then, depending on how much you sweat and your activity level you can increase as needed. You can also have more if you are feeling under the weather, or your urine is dark in color vs pale yellow.

Because of the way we’ve formulated HYDRATE, it’s almost impossible to overdo it. We use electrolytes + minerals in their natural form and that is key!

Water Intoxication can happen from drinking too much water too fast. Our kidneys can only clear out about a liter of water an hour. Too much water in the blood can also dilute our minerals + electrolytes. If your sodium drops too low you can get hyponatremia, the most common electrolyte disorder. You can get that from not consuming enough sodium or drinking too much water and flushing it out.

If too much or not enough can be life threatening, it’s so obvious right!?
Doesn’t true health always come back to moderation and balance?
And what place on earth is the best representation of balance?

Answer: Nature. A consistent stream of minerals + electrolytes in their natural state.

Combine with quality water is really all you need to master hydration.

Yes, and minerals can help support their growing bodies. It can be hard to get kids to drink enough water, and this is where we shine.

- Kids love the REAL lemonade taste. We use real, organic lemon juice not lemon flavoring. The taste is out of this world.
- We have nothing artificial in any of our products.
- We are the ONLY Certified Organic and Certified Glyphosate Free electrolyte + mineral drink on the planet.
- Only 1g of sugar from the lemon juice.

HYDRATE is a total win for the family.

Yes. And while her body needs extra everything these days, she especially needs extra electrolytes + minerals can help with hydration.

Quality is critical at this time. HYDRATE is the ONLY Certified Organic + Certified Glyphosate Free electrolyte powder in existence.

HYDRATE can also help with morning sickness by putting the GOOD stuff back in, while also tasting great. It helps replenish and offers the body key nutrients it needs during this time.

With only 1g of sugar it’s the perfect drink for anyone that is trying to reduce their sugar consumption. Side note: Most products marketed to diabetics have artificial sweeteners like sucralose. Anyone paying attention to their health will want to look for low sugar AND organic options.

Our HYDRATE Stick Packs are made in a dedicated Gluten Free facility and contain no ingredients or sub ingredients that contain gluten.

If you see this statement on some sizes “made in a facility that also processes wheat” - We have some sizes that are produced in a different facility. However, that facility currently has NO other products that contain wheat or gluten. It is possible in the future they will bring in a product that contains gluten, so we wanted to make sure our allergen statements on these bags are always true. If that facility brings in gluten, they have proper measures to avoid cross contamination. However, at that stage I have them test each batch just to make sure! Our founder has celiac, and this is important to her as well. Please feel free to reach out to see current status of these packages.

Nope and it never, ever will. We are one of the ONLY brands that goes the extra mile and is Certified Organic.

Yes. It’s all those things. But more importantly, it’s organic and real!

Nope, we let nature do her thing. We use real, organic lemon juice and that’s it!

- Natural Flavors are VERY far from being natural.
- Organic Flavors aren’t any better.
- Artificial Flavors are straight up chemicals that don’t belong in our body.
- Artificial Colors are made from petroleum and have no place in any food product in our humble opinion. We used to think it was cool the way the big guys made professional athletes sweat neon green in a TV commercial……and then we got smarter. #notcool

No way, not ever. You don’t even want to get me started on this one. Even in our restaurant has been yellow, pink and blue packet free since 2002!
