@@WillyEckaslike depending on how much time I sweat each day is how I base my electrolyte serving and water consumption amounts on. So if I don't work out at all and I'm not in a hot sweaty environment I usually have two servings of this per day and a minimum of 64-80 oz of water with it. This recipe makes 10 servings. So it lasts 2 to 5 days only because I'm an active individual. The potassium amount that I mixed may have chloride in it because I use potassium chloride, but the amount is based on the serving of potassium on the nutrition label. I also know the daily recommended values for adult males and females. Taking supplements are not intended to replace malnutrition due to poor dietary choice/consumption. This particular case is to ensure adequate hydration. There is roughly 2000mg of potassium in the container after making 10 servings (200mg/servings).

The perfect blend! I added two teaspoons of stevia to mine . Came out great. Hydrated all day

Note that different forms of Mg, K, and Na have different amounts of elemental Mg, K, and Na. What this means is that if you're using MgMalate instead of MgCl, you would use a different amount (weight) of the Malate form of Mg than the Chloride form. This is really important to understand because you want the proper ratio of elemental sodium (Na) to potassium (K) to magnesium (Mg). For example, if you're K to Na ratio is too high, you could end up with hyponatremia which is a medical emergency.

@motivationhw

2 ай бұрын

Yes, if you do two teaspoons of the same magnesium chloride that I had in the video it will add up to the correct amount of potassium to match LMNT's formula. If you use magnesium malate, You will just have to see the serving size on the back of the container that you purchase. Check how much a single serving is and then how much magnesium is in that amount. You will then just adjust the serving size to match 60 mg of magnesium malate or whatever form of magnesium you decide to go with.

Magnesium oxide has 3% absorption versus citrate with 30% absorption. First tinkle on PH paper after sleeping indicates amount magnesium absorbed. Magnesium is alkaline. Urine PH is 5.5 to 5.7 after magnesium oxide 400mg /day for 3 days or above 6.0 after 3 days magnesium citrate 200 mg / day. Need 3 consecutive days to see change as cellular magnesium levels low with oxide need 2 days on citrate for cells to slow up take and start excreting magnesium in urine.

@@motivationhw Yes, and in reference to what @rafewheadon1963 wrote. . .23000 years ago, all food was REAL (unadulterated, unprocessed) food; the nutrient content therein was phenomenal (everything natural, everything organic!). Today, a high percentage of what is sold as food is ultra-processed and nutrient-deficient, which is why our bodies are not getting the electrolytes they need. If we were meticulous about obtaining the ideal amount of sodium chloride, magnesiurm, potassium, calcium , phosphate, etc., from the food we eat every day, we wouldn't need to supplement as much. However, since most of us are NOT getting all the electrolytes we need from the food we're consuming-especially in the hottest months, and especially if we are working out (sweating away our electrolytes) regularly-adding electrolytes to our water is a great idea. And your body will notice the difference right away.
