The importance of electrolytes

Electrolytes are charged particles (often minerals) that perform important bodily functions. Well-known electrolytes are sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium and chloride. You get these substances from food and lose them through sweat and urine. In addition, you can take them with a supplement. 

When to take extra electrolytes

In these situations, you might consider taking more electrolytes:

• When you sweat a lot, such as in the sauna, during sports or in hot weather.
  Through sweat, you lose both water and electrolytes. Add both to maintain your water balance.
• When you follow a low-carbohydrate/ketogenic diet.
  When you eat carbohydrates daily, your body retains more salt. Therefore, when your carbohydrate intake is low, you lose electrolytes faster.
• When you eat a lot of fresh produce that is low in salt.
  Processed foods often contain added salt. If you cook with fresh products, you usually add less salt.
• When (water) fasting.
  It is wise to take electrolytes when you are fasting. This helps with your energy levels and fatigue, among other things.

In these situations, you must pay more attention to your electrolyte intake. An electrolyte supplement makes it easy and tasty to do so.

Optimal electrolytes ratios

The composition of NoordCode Electrolytes Unflavoured is:

• 1000 mg sodium
• 400 mg potassium (20% RI)
• 76 mg magnesium (20% RI)

NoordCode has based this optimal electrolytes ratio on the following factors.

Sodium:potassium ratio

The body uses sodium and potassium together to maintain the amount of water inside and outside cells.

There is no absolute "perfect" ratio of sodium to potassium that applies to everyone, but health organizations recommend general guidelines. 

According to most guidelines, the ideal ratio of sodium to potassium is somewhere between 1:1 and 1:2. For every gram of sodium, you should get about 1-2 grams of potassium.

NoordCode opts for a ratio of sodium:potassium of 5:2. This assumes you also get potassium through food, such as fruit, potatoes, meat, avocado and leafy vegetables. So your total sodium:potassium intake will still end up around a 1:2 ratio.

The amount of magnesium

You get most magnesium from magnesium-rich foods such as leafy greens, nuts and seeds. 76 mg of magnesium makes a nice contribution to your daily intake.

High-quality ingredients

The mix contains unrefined sea salt as a source of sodium. In addition to sodium, this salt contains many other trace minerals that give it its characteristic colour and rich flavour. Unrefined sea salt is a natural source of sodium that has not been chemically processed. A potential disadvantage of unrefined sea salt is contamination. Therefore, we use only very pure salt that is tested free of heavy metals and microplastics.

Nutrition experts recommend potassium citrate, which we have used for this formula.

The 76 mg of magnesium comes from Aquamin™ Mg, magnesium oxide from seawater.

Sodium and Chloride from Salt

When we talk about salt, we often refer to sodium chloride. Sodium chloride is the main component of all salts. Salt provides sodium and chloride, which are both electrolytes. By weight, salt consists of 40% sodium and 60% chloride.

NoordCode Electrolytes contains 1.1 g of sodium and approximately 1.6 g of chloride from sea salt per serving.

Sugar-free mix suitable for fasting and keto

NoordCode Electrolytes Sticks Unflavoured contain no sugar, allergens, GMOs, or maltodextrin. This makes it a perfect fit for a ketogenic or low-carbohydrate diet and doesn't interfere with your (water) fasting. So you can always enjoy this tasty electrolyte mix that delivers the promised electrolytes without unnecessary additives.
