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.

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 don't add that much 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 those cases, an electrolyte supplement provides you with extra electrolytes in an easy and tasty way.

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 there are general guidelines recommended by health organizations. 

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

For this formula, we use Potassium Citrate, the form recommended by nutrition experts.

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 Unflavoured is free from sugar, allergens, GMOs, and 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.

European alternative to LMNT Recharge

The most well-known and popular electrolyte mix is LMNT Recharge. Thought leaders widely praise this US electrolyte mix as a functional, low-sugar, and tasty electrolyte drink. Unfortunately, LMNT no longer supplies Europe and other US brands are expensive due to import costs.

NoordCode Electrolytes are now your European alternative.
