Salt for the sweat, C for the day
Long shifts, back-to-back flights, a classroom in flu season, a training block that leaves you run down: the days you reach for electrolytes tend to be the days a vitamin gets skipped too. Every flavored Saltivate serving carries 100% of the Daily Value of vitamin C alongside 800mg sodium, so one glass covers both.
Vitamin C contributes to normal immune function and to collagen formation, and since the body does not store it, it has to come in daily. Immune support electrolytes, as a search, comes down to that pairing: the minerals sweat takes plus a daily vitamin, in one glass. The flavored jars and packets are in hydration powder; the flying and nurses pages cover two of the days it gets used most.
Days it gets used
- Back-to-back flights with dry cabin air and airport food
- A twelve-hour shift with one break for water
- Flu season in a classroom of thirty
- A training block that leaves you run down
- Hot weeks where fruit gets skipped for whatever is fast
What vitamin C does
Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin. It is a cofactor in collagen synthesis and it accumulates in white blood cells, which is the basis for the recognized claim that it contributes to normal immune function. Because it is water-soluble, the body holds little in reserve and clears the excess, so intake is a daily matter.
The cold research is modest: in the general population, regular vitamin C has not reduced how many colds people catch, though it shortened them slightly in trials. The label claim is 100% of the Daily Value per flavored serving, and each lot is checked against it on our lab results page.
Vitamin C, on the label and in the lab
Orange, Watermelon, and Mango Pineapple each carry 100% of the Daily Value of vitamin C per serving, with 800mg sodium, 240mg potassium, 60mg magnesium, 0g sugar, and 10 calories. Raw Unflavored is the three minerals only, with no vitamin C.
The Orange 30-count packets are the pick here: one stick a day across a work week and then some, sealed against a bag full of pens and boarding passes. Every packet format is in hydration packets.

What customers say
Rated 4.65 out of 5 from 329 reviews
I love this stuff! The macros are way better than the other popular electrolyte brands out there. It also tastes great!
Excellent product. Excellent customer service will definitely order again.
Recently, I purchased this product through Amazon. Due to poor handling practices at Amazon my jar came with the powder all over it and the seal broken. Amazon sent me to the Saltivate website and I started to chat with what I found out was...

Common questions
Do electrolytes with vitamin C actually do anything?
Two jobs in one glass. The sodium, potassium, and magnesium replace what sweat took and help you hold the water you drink. The vitamin C contributes to normal immune function and collagen formation, and since the body does not store it, a daily serving keeps intake steady.
Are these immune support electrolytes?
Every flavored serving has 100% DV vitamin C, which contributes to normal immune function. That is the claim on the label, and the whole of it. In the general population, regular vitamin C has not been shown to reduce how many colds people catch.
Does Raw Unflavored have vitamin C?
No. Raw Unflavored is sodium chloride, potassium citrate, and dimagnesium malate, nothing else. Vitamin C is in Orange, Watermelon, and Mango Pineapple.
Can I take it every day?
The flavored mixes are a food with 0g sugar and 10 calories, and the vitamin C sits at 100% DV, a daily amount. The sodium is the part to size to your day: 800mg a serving is meant for people who sweat or have a real reason to take in more salt.
Is the vitamin C verified?
Each lot is tested by a third-party lab and the vitamin C result is posted against the label claim on the lab results page.
Salt for the sweat. C for the day.
