Are there any warnings or side effects of using Optimal Electrolyte?Updated 3 months ago

Warnings
Do not consume Optimal Electrolyte with any other liquid except for water, and always consume with water.

Children and pregnant or lactating women should consult their healthcare practitioner prior to use. Do not use if tamper seal is damaged. Consult with a healthcare professional prior to use if you are undergoing treatment for diabetes or any medical condition, or if you are using medications (esp. insulin, aspirin, or other medications that might affect blood sugar levels, or diuretics).

 

Side Effects
Side effects may include:

  • Upset stomach
  • Nausea
  • Vomiting
  • Diarrhea
  • Headaches


Headaches are rarely experienced. In the event a headache occurs from drinking Optimal Electrolyte, talk to your health professional about adding additional salt. Low sodium due to weakened adrenals or the ketogenic diet may contribute to headaches when more potassium is consumed.

If you believe that you are experiencing any adverse reactions, please see your healthcare professional immediately and discontinue use. Each individual may react differently to any product or supplement. We always recommend that you consult with your healthcare professional prior to considering the use of Optimal Electrolyte Powder or any supplement, especially when pregnant or breastfeeding.
