When to Choose Trace Minerals 40,000 Volts!
Minimalists who want unflavored electrolyte concentrate to add to any drink
Trace Minerals 40,000 Volts takes a unique approach — a pure liquid electrolyte concentrate with zero sugar, flavoring, or additives. Add it to water, juice, or smoothies for electrolytes without committing to a specific flavor. The trade-off is taste and convenience.
Strengths
- Liquid concentrate format — add to any beverage without changing flavor significantly
- 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
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
