Hi ritzgerb,

Liquid IV is one of many electrolyte powders available on the market. You can buy it on Amazon, or Costco, Target, Walmart etc. There is a non-sugar option now, which is my preference because the original had quite a bit of sugar in it (not good for inflammation). And there are many flavors to choose from. But ultimately they are all the same formula of B-vitamins, potassium, sodium etc. I prefer Liquid IV because of the high B-vitamin content and I feel it's one of the best for overall hydration, particularly when watered down and sipped throughout the day. Hope this helps!

All the best!

I’m having trouble staying hydrated after having 18” of my colon removed due to severe diverticulitis. I was told by my Functional Medicine Dr to use LMNT Electrolyte Drink Mix. You can order it on Amazon. There are 1000 mg of sodium in 1 packet and no sugar, 200 mg of Potassium and 60 mg of Magnesium. I am also suffering from Hashimoto’s/Hypothyroidism and lost my taste and smell in December of 2022 due to Covid. I still don’t have my taste or smell back and am currently trying Acupuncture for that. So far, after 8 treatments, no taste or smell…. I wish you all the best on your personal health journey.
