About This Site

We built doineedelectrolytes.com because comparing electrolyte brands was unnecessarily hard. Every brand's website highlights different numbers in different formats, making side-by-side comparison almost impossible. We wanted one page where you could sort 17 brands by the metrics that actually matter.

The key metric most people miss is cost per gram of sodium. Two products can cost the same per serving but deliver wildly different amounts of sodium. A $1.50 serving with 1,000mg sodium is a completely different value than a $1.56 serving with 500mg. Per-serving price alone is misleading, so we normalize everything to $/g sodium across all 17 brands.

All data on this site is pulled directly from manufacturer websites and product labels. We check prices and formulations regularly and update the comparison table when things change. Every number in every article traces back to the same verified dataset.

Who owns this site

doineedelectrolytes.com is under common ownership with Hydrate Pro, one of the 17 brands compared here. You should know that before you read a ranking that includes it.

Here's how we handle it. Every brand is scored on the same two metrics — cost per serving and cost per gram of sodium — calculated the same way from published label data and current retail prices. Hydrate Pro gets no adjustment, no thumb on the scale, and no exemption from the math. It doesn't finish first in every guide, and where it loses, the table says so. Redmond Re-Lyte beats it on potassium. Vitassium beats it on capsule sodium cost.

We don't accept payment for placement or rankings from any brand, including Hydrate Pro. Articles link to brand websites where relevant, and links to Hydrate Pro work the same way links to drinklmnt.com do.

If you'd rather not take our word for it, every number traces back to a manufacturer's label or retail listing, and we date-stamp the data so you can verify it yourself. Check our math.
