electrolyte powder

Mineral drink mix

Electrolyte powder is a supplement mixed with water to replenish minerals lost through sweat, illness, or exertion.

It typically contains sodium, potassium, and magnesium—the charged particles that regulate hydration and muscle function.

Athletes, hangover sufferers, and people recovering from stomach bugs reach for it: I added electrolyte powder to my water bottle before the race.
