For fasters and clean eaters
Electrolytes for Fasting: Stay Steady Through Your Fast
Zero sugar, zero calories, and 800mg of sodium per serving so you can replace what you lose without breaking your fast.
Why fasting drains your electrolytes
When you fast, you stop eating, which means you also stop taking in the sodium that normally comes with food. At the same time, lower insulin signals your kidneys to release water and sodium faster than usual. So a fast can quietly draw down the very mineral you depend on most. Electrolytes for fasting matter because you keep losing sodium even when nothing is going in, and water alone does not put it back.
Signs you are running low
- A foggy or heavy head a day or two into a fast
- Lightheadedness when you stand up
- Low energy or sluggishness that water does not fix
- Muscle cramps or twitchy legs
- Feeling unusually thirsty no matter how much you drink
What actually helps you stay ahead of it
The goal is to replace the sodium you are losing, not just the water. Most electrolyte drinks underdose sodium and lean on sugar, which is exactly what a faster does not want. What helps is a sodium-forward electrolyte with no calories to break the fast, plus potassium and magnesium to round out what you lose. Saltivate delivers 800mg of sodium, 240mg potassium, and 60mg magnesium per serving with zero sugar and zero calories, so you can stay replenished and keep fasting.

Common questions
Will electrolytes break my fast?
Saltivate has zero sugar and zero calories. Raw Unflavored also has no sweetener and no flavor, so it is just sodium, potassium, and magnesium in water. Many people use it specifically because it keeps them replenished without adding calories.
Why do I need extra sodium when fasting?
When you stop eating, you stop taking in the sodium that normally comes with food, and lower insulin makes your body release sodium and water faster. You keep losing sodium even when nothing is going in, so replacing it helps you feel steady. Saltivate provides 800mg of sodium per serving.
Flavored or Raw Unflavored for fasting?
Raw Unflavored is the cleanest choice since it has no sweetener and no flavor at all. The flavored mixes are sweetened with OnoSweet (Reb M), which is made by fermenting rice rather than from the stevia leaf, and it adds no sugar or calories, so they are also fine on a fast if you prefer a little taste.
How often should I take it while fasting?
Many people mix one serving into water once or twice a day during a fast, often when a headache or low energy starts to creep in. Listen to your body, and if you have a health condition or take medication, check with your doctor first.
