When to Choose Trace Minerals 40,000 Volts!
Minimalists who want unflavored electrolyte concentrate to add to any drink

- Zero sugar, zero calories, zero carbs — purest electrolyte delivery method
- 48 servings from one bottle at ~$0.54/serving with full mineral spectrum
Limitations
- Concentrate has a strong mineral/salty taste if not diluted enough
- Requires measuring — no pre-portioned convenience like stick packs
- Some users report a metallic aftertaste at higher concentrations
