When to Choose Redmond Re-Lyte Hydration
Health-conscious consumers who want maximum ingredient transparency and trace mineral support
Redmond Re-Lyte is arguably the most transparent electrolyte product on the market, with exact amounts of every ingredient published and backed by third-party testing. The Real Salt mineral base adds unique trace mineral content that no competitor matches.
Strengths
- Industry-leading transparency with every ingredient amount published and third-party tested
- Real Salt mineral base provides 60+ trace minerals beyond standard electrolytes
- Zero sugar, no artificial sweeteners — uses stevia leaf extract
Limitations
- Slightly salty taste from Real Salt base may not appeal to all palates
- 60-serving jar format less portable than individual stick packs
- Higher upfront cost despite good per-serving value
When to Choose Skratch Labs Hydration Sport Drink Mix
Endurance athletes and cyclists who want real-food ingredients during training
Skratch Labs is a favorite among cyclists and endurance athletes for good reason — the real fruit ingredients create a genuinely pleasant taste without artificial additives. The sugar is intentional for fuel during exercise, but the moderate electrolyte content means heavier sweaters may need to supplement.
Strengths
- Real fruit flavoring — uses actual freeze-dried fruit instead of artificial flavors
- Non-GMO, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free with no artificial anything
- Light, refreshing taste that's easy to drink during exercise without stomach upset
Limitations
- Contains 9g sugar per serving from cane sugar — moderate but present
- Lower sodium (380mg) and overall electrolyte content than high-performance options
- Resealable bag format can be messy and harder to measure precisely
