Who is Optimal Electrolyte intended for and how to use?Updated 5 hours ago
Optimal Electrolyte Powder is intended for anyone who wishes to feel hydrated and energized throughout their day.
This is great for athletes, pre- and post- sauna use, pre- and post-workout use, elderly adults, kids 4 years of age and older, and those who spend time in warm weather or sweat excessively.
Optimal Electrolyte is a great option for those who are taking methylation-support products because methylation increases cell division. During cell division, electrolytes are lost. Electrolytes are needed for proper nutrient absorption and cellular detoxification.†
- Supports healthy muscle contraction and relaxation
- Supports healthy heart rhythm and contraction
- Hydration Blend with key ingredients for hydration support
It takes only a 1% loss of water to create symptoms of dehydration.
Attention, concentration, memory and overall mental processing speed are all negatively affected by just a 1% loss of hydration.
Assess each statement below. If you can relate to one or more, then Optimal Electrolyte may be the electrolyte supplement you need†:
- I have been drinking high sodium electrolytes which are causing me to experience water retention and bloat.
- Histamine intolerance and mast cell activation are negatively affecting me. I hear that hydration supports a healthy histamine response and healthy histamine levels.
- No matter what electrolyte I try, I tend to cramp. I would like to find an electrolyte that supports healthy muscle contraction and muscle relaxation.
- I tend to wake up at night and pee. I would like to sleep throughout the night.
- I drink water and find that I need to go pee right away. I would like to drink water and not pee so frequently.
- I'm looking for a healthy, great-tasting electrolyte to add to our filtered water to encourage my family and me to drink more water. We don't like plain water and need flavor to stay hydrated. I often get headaches from dehydration, so a tasty, healthy electrolyte is essential.
- I frequently consume caffeinated beverages, soda, flavored water, juice, or alcohol, but I want to replace these with a low-calorie, healthy, effective, and great-tasting electrolyte option that helps with hydration and has fewer carbs and sugar than coconut water.
- I would like to experience a consistent, rhythmic heartbeat.
- I often get headaches especially if I don’t hydrate. I would like to support healthy hydration so my head feels healthy.
- I’m taking diuretics, albuterol, laxatives, or insulin. My doctor says I need to support healthy hydration and support healthy potassium levels.
- I’m overweight. I heard recently that having a higher proportion of body fat to muscle mass leads to lower total body water content.
- My legs tend to spasm and move involuntarily at night. I would like to support healthy sleep and muscle function.
- I travel a lot by plane and experience fatigue after flying. Airplanes tend to dehydrate me due to the very low humidity in the cabin. I need to support healthy hydration while flying.
- I’m pregnant and will be breast feeding. I need to support healthy hydration for me, and my baby..
- I live in a windy, dry or sunny environment. I know I’m losing a lot of water through my skin.
- I’m looking for a stevia-free, sugar-free and citric acid-free electrolyte.
How do I use Optimal Electrolyte?
Suggested Use
As needed, add 1 scoop to a glass or water bottle. Fill with 8 oz of filtered water. For best results, sip, hold, then swallow. Do not chug
Proper hydration is second to breathing in terms of importance to sustain a healthy life.
The rules of 3 determine how important it is to use Optimal Electrolyte on a daily basis.
One cannot sustain life when:
- 3 minutes without air.
- 3 days without water.
- 3 weeks without food.
Depending on what I do in a day, my usage of Optimal Electrolyte varies
- Every morning, I don’t eat breakfast right away, Instead, I properly hydrate by sipping a glass of Optimal Electrolyte over a period of about 30 minutes. I drink it while in the office.
- If I sauna, I sip a serving during the session.
- If I go to the gym, I will take a sip from my water bottle between sets while working out.
- If I feel that water later in the afternoon is not cutting it, I will have another serving. Typically, the trigger for me to go prepare some electrolytes is when my head feels fuzzy and cognition is slower than desired.
If you find yourself sweating a lot, you may want to add a pinch of salt to your electrolytes. I do this if I have a heavy sweating sauna or exercise session.
Typically, you do not need, and shouldn’t, add more salt to your electrolytes - only if you’re sweating profusely. You usually get more than sufficient sodium in your diet.
Be sure to sip, and hold, then swallow. Do not chug your electrolytes. Absorption is so much better by following these suggestions.
Kids do not stop to drink water. They’re too busy and distracted. As a father, I always prepare a glass of Optimal Electrolyte for my boys and walk it over to them. Ideally, prepare their water bottle for school and sports with a serving of Optimal Electrolyte.
If you prepared a water bottle full of Optimal Electrolyte and you haven’t finished it, put it in the fridge. It will be good for a couple days. I do this at times when I feel I don’t want to finish it.
Some quick tips:
- Don’t like the Fizz? Simply stir and let it sit for a bit longer before you drink. The carbon dioxide reaction will burn itself out within a minute or two tops.
- Too sweet? Simply add more filtered water.
- Not flavorful enough? Simply add less filtered water.
- Get a headache from drinking it? You’re drinking too much too fast. Slow down and drink less of it. Perhaps you only need ½ a serving or simply drink it over a longer period of time. Drink upon waking in the morning, drink it away from food or only when exercising.
- Irritable when drinking? Drink ½ serving upon waking up in the morning or while working out. Drink away from food and drink over time - not quickly.
- Loose stools or gut discomfort? This is likely due to the creatine. Drink upon waking up in the morning, sip over time or drink it prior to exercise as exercise increases stomach acid. Drink between meals not with food.
