LMNT Zero Sugar Electrolytes, Citrus Salt, 30 Stick Packs

LMNT Citrus Salt is a zero-sugar electrolyte drink mix in single-serve stick packs, 30 per box. Each stick adds sodium, potassium, and magnesium to water, with lemon-lime flavor and stevia.

Who it suits

It fits heavy sweaters during long, hard workouts and low-carb eaters who want electrolytes without sugar. For a short gym session, the sodium is likely more than you need. It sits in our supplements and electrolytes collection, next to Thorne Magnesium Bisglycinate powder for magnesium on its own.

What reviewers say

A registered dietitian at BarBend found it mixed fully and tasted good, but noted sodium far above rivals, a higher cost per serving, and no third-party testing. Healthline saw it as useful for heavy sweaters in long, strenuous sessions, but more sodium than most active people need.

Pros and cons

• Pro: No sugar, sweetened only with stevia
• Pro: Short ingredient list in portable single-serve sticks
• Con: Very high sodium for casual use
• Con: No third-party sport certification listed

Cautions

• High in sodium (1,000 mg per stick), so it does not suit a sodium-restricted diet.
• With high blood pressure, heart, kidney, or liver problems, or medication affecting sodium, potassium, or blood pressure (such as diuretics or ACE inhibitors), ask your doctor or pharmacist first.
• Talk to your doctor before starting a new supplement, especially if you are pregnant, nursing, take medication or have a health condition.
