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 Liquid I.V. Hydration Multiplier

Mainstream consumers who prioritize taste and convenience over clean-label credentials

Liquid I.V. is the most recognizable name in electrolytes, and the taste delivers. However, 11g of added sugar per serving and opaque "natural flavors" labeling put it behind cleaner competitors on ingredient quality. Best for those who want something that tastes great and is available everywhere.

Strengths

  • Uses Cellular Transport Technology (CTT) for enhanced water absorption
  • Widest flavor variety and most widespread retail availability
  • Great taste consistently praised in user reviews

Limitations

  • 11g of added sugar per serving — significantly more than clean-label competitors
  • Contains citric acid and natural flavors without full disclosure of sources
  • Moderate electrolyte content (500mg sodium) relative to sugar load
