[pct-l] Pct-L Digest, Vol 71, Issue 7

[b j]

Every body works differently.  I had a pretty healthy trail diet, but I still found that I appreciated having some electrolyte capsules handy in my hip pocket for when I'm really sweating and guzzling water.  Electrolyte capsules are generally only missing the sugar that's found in electrolyte drinks, so I'd have a squirt bottle of honey handy too.  And you're not restricted to salt sticks.  If you search for salt tablets or electrolyte capsules and look at the ingredients, you'll generally find a few products that contain Sodium, Potassium, Magnesium, Calcium.  I think I bought mine at a large online vitamin company.

I am wondering if anyone knows of a good source of electrolytes that isn't
full of sugar or sugar substitutes, and won't break the bank. I've used
Emergen-C in the past but I don't know if there are others out there.
Thanks.
Shelly
