Why a night out leaves you running low
Alcohol is a diuretic. It tells your body to flush water faster than it should, and every trip to the bathroom can carry sodium, potassium, and magnesium out with it. By morning you have been losing fluid and salt for hours. Plain water alone does not replace the sodium you lose, which is why many people reach for electrolytes that lead with sodium rather than sugar. If you have a health condition or take medication, talk to your doctor about what is right for you.
Signs you are running low
- Dry mouth and constant thirst that water does not quite fix
- A dull, heavy head
- Lightheadedness when you stand up
- Low energy and feeling foggy
- Feeling like you cannot rehydrate no matter how much you drink
What actually helps you rehydrate
When you are dehydrated from drinking, you lose mostly sodium in fluid, and sodium is what helps your body hold on to the water you drink instead of passing it straight through. Most electrolyte drinks underdose sodium and load up on sugar, which does not match what a night out drained. A sodium-forward mix paired with potassium and magnesium gives your body the minerals to support hydration. Many people find a tall glass of water with real electrolytes, before bed or first thing in the morning, helps them feel more hydrated.
Why Saltivate is built for the morning after
Saltivate was designed around the mineral you lose most. Each serving delivers 800mg of sodium, far more than typical sports drinks, plus 240mg potassium and 60mg magnesium, with zero sugar, with zero calories in Raw Unflavored and 10 in the flavored mixes. Flavored mixes are sweetened with OnoSweet, a Reb M made by fermenting rice rather than from the stevia leaf, so there is no bitter aftertaste to fight when your stomach is already sensitive. Stir one into a big glass of water and drink up.

What customers say
Excellent product. Excellent customer service will definitely order again.
These electrolytes are the perfect mix of salty and sweet, we love them!
While they don't have many flavors, the cost of the Saltivate products can be nearly half that of similar "salt-based" electrolyte mixes. I like the salty taste of these...think more along the lines of a margarita drink without the alcohol. While I prefer the Mango...

Common questions
What are the best electrolytes for hangovers?
Look for a mix that leads with sodium and skips the sugar, since alcohol mainly flushes sodium and fluid out of you. Saltivate delivers 800mg of sodium per serving plus 240mg potassium and 60mg magnesium, with zero sugar, which is the profile many people reach for to rehydrate the morning after.
When should I drink electrolytes, before bed or in the morning?
Either works, and many people do both. A glass with electrolytes before bed and another when you wake up helps you replace the sodium and fluid you lost overnight. Saltivate mixes fast into water, so it is easy whenever you reach for it.
Will the flavor be too sweet or harsh on my stomach?
Saltivate has zero sugar and is sweetened with OnoSweet, a Reb M made by fermenting rice instead of from the stevia leaf, so there is no bitter aftertaste. The Orange flavor is light and bright, which tends to be easy to get down even when you are not feeling great.
How is Saltivate different from a sports drink for this?
Most sports drinks are mostly sugar and underdose sodium. Saltivate flips that, with 800mg of sodium, no sugar, and 0 to 10 calories, so you are replacing the sodium you actually lost rather than drinking a sweet beverage that passes right through you.
Stock the jar before the next night out
Keep a jar on the counter so the morning after is one less thing to figure out. Mix one Orange serving into a tall glass of water and start the day hydrated. Zero sugar, 800mg of sodium, and no bitter aftertaste.
