I have made this DIY version from LMNT's website too. For flavor, I used 1 packet each of True Lemon and True Lime with 1/32 of a teaspoon pure stevia extract powder. To me, it tastes just like the real thing!
Lol was just coming to say that..I use them also And I also use flavored drops that I bought from gremberry farms before Richard closed his shop. He still may ship until he exhaust his supplyi don't know for certain that but never hurts to see. Mind you these are concentrates so stay with 5 drops than work up So far my favorite combo Mint chocolate chip Coconut Pina coloda Dr pepper ( his name is red can) 😆 Peach Raspberry Raspberry peach ( just like Olive garden tea)
I’ll try that because using the Lime as shown on their website and in this video and it tastes nothing like LMNT citrus. I’ve been using 2 packets of the LMNT citrus every day for over 2 years so I know very well what it should taste like.
Just an FYI for those looking for clean ingredients Kalas salt has an anti-caking agent in it and real lime from concentrate has sulphites. No judgement just information.
I started buying a 5 lb bucket of redmams salt and I use the 5 lb make it up store in large containers. This lasts about a year, and I do it once and done.
This is such a great idea! I've found I can't tolerate the flavored versions of electrolytes, because they usually have citric acid added. Citric acid burns my gums and other mouth tissues! I couldn't figure out why my mouth and gums were so inflamed, and I narrowed it down to the powdered electrolytes. The unflavored versions don't typically have citric acid, but they aren't very tasty! I appreciate having this recipe, as I could flavor it how I want without the citric acid. And I'm sure it's also much cheaper!
Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou, in Australia the cost of getting LMNT into my home is ridiculous. Although I have been depending on the raw. This is wonderful thankyou for bringing this to my attention. Especially, in light of the recent developments with LMNT's flavour suppliers.
I’ve made this many times as well. I usually use the whole jar if the magnesium malate and then figure out the proportions for the potassium and sodium. However, I reduce the sodium by 3/4, as it’s too salty with the entire amount. I prefer to use the salt on food. Also, since I eat fish I don’t bother with the sea salt. Eventually the Greek sea salt has micro plastics in it according to some research I’ve seen. And by the way, Redmonds is sea salt, from ancient sea beds.
My doctor approves of my recipe for electrolytes: Celtic Sea Salt (1/8 tsp), True Lemon powder (1 packet- sometimes I use True Lime), in a half liter bottle of water. I also take a magnesium and a calcium supplement.
Thank you for showing us how to do this. I just ordered the ingredients for my kids. With 4 little ones, the boxes are out of their budget, but this we can do.
Thank you for this video. I was considering making my own LMNT and your video popped up! I definitely want to try making my own. I appreciate all your encouragement!
Just this morning I went & downloaded LMNT instructions too! LOL. Just need the ingredients. Yes I think Allulose would be a great idea. Most of the time I drink the Unflavored electrolytes with a splash of lime juice/lemon juice….gives it a nice refreshing drink. I like using my Sparkling mineral water also.
Anita thank you for making this recipe! I've been meaning to for a while and you showed us how simple it really is! You look amazing, thank you for all of the inspiration ❤️
Thanks for all the info Anita. I usually get the lime LMNT at health essentials in Victoria but it's costly. this is probably a lot cheaper. Rina and Dr. Bright had a good you tube chat about Iodine and the thyroid. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for going through this! I've just been adding salt to my broth and taking magnesium and potassium as pills but i will get the ingredients when i run out of pills
Epson Salt is Magnesium Sulfate and is an inexpensive product that can be used. The product No Salt is Potassium Chloride and can be used to make your own electrolyte mix. You can watch the video on Snake Juice. No need to buy ingredients that are more expensive.
I've done something similar with true lemon and true lime and without sweeteners. Sometimes I put it in plain sparkling water. I've also used food grade, essential oils. Lemon and lime go well together, but my favorite is grapefruit.
Thanks for posting the basic recipe. I'd like to try coming up with my own fruit type favour. Bulk Supplements sells organic dehydrated powders in raspberry, strawberry, blueberry, and cranberry flavours at a reasonable price. Not sure of the amount of powder I’d use but it would be fun to experiment with.
Thanks for this! I have had a lot of digestive issues with LMNT. Magnesium malate also makes me a bit depressed. So I can use magnesium glycinate instead! Thanks again!
Ha! Yes, I use the celtic sea salt, magnesium flakes (for me very minimal) and cream of Tartar ( bipotassium tartrate) in my DIY electrolyte for drinks, with lemon and lime juice. 😊 and I take maybe 1 -2 drops of Lugol's iodine drops maybe 2X/ week.😊
Same here, I use both also.but for electrolytes I’ve been using key Elements in pill form over the last year and half. I use to use the flavour ones but I find them way to sweet
I've been making the same recipe for many years, could never understand why anyone would pay $$$ for it. Also I use Threonate, a much better magnesium.
I d on't cover my brisket here in texas. I put it in the oven at 225 degrees. When it gets to 185°, then I wrap it in butcher paper and let it keep going until 205.
You might try Santa Cruz lemon juice or lime juice and it comes in glass bottle and it does taste really good no sweetness ect ect thank for the recipe I iam a dyi a person and it’s cheeper to in bulk but that’s my option 😎
I probably can’t replicate my favorite LMNT flavor of Chili Mango but I’ll try the basic raw flavor and go from there. The bone broth route sounds interesting and I’ll try. I like allulose sweetener but it’s not one to one so the amount I have to use for sweetness to my liking is too much distress for my gut. Thanks for the video and resources.
I use Mango mio (gasp) and a pinch of chili powder. You could also try powdered mango from an Asian market for minimal carbs. Sweeten to taste. I’m in Alberta so I haven’t tasted LMNT, I just hack their ideas. God bless.
I highly recommend buying from a company that actually 3rd party tests their product like they said on their website LONG before the maltodextrin disclosure. 🤷🏻♀️
Bless you. I have always enjoyed your channel. If I may offer some information. Iodized salt doesn't contain a viable iodine. It isn't only the thyroid that requires iodine. Nothing from the soil provides us with what we need. Kelp shrimp, various types of sea vegetables, celtic sea salt, etc. Lugol's solution and other forms of iodine. I've not searched for a form for cooking/preparing to offer. I hope this is off some value.
I’ve made Dr Berry’s homemade electrolyte recipe. It would be great if you could try and make a chocolate version. Maybe a chocolate stevia? Chocolate would be great. Thanks.
@@nicolepennington3336 If you want to live on the edge, use Mio or another water enhancer. I like just a hint of flavour and only use a mini squirt. Then there’s true lemon which also comes in lime orange and grapefruit. Or just do a fruit infusion. I also like Celestial Seasonings fruit teas really diluted. My fav are their Christmas teas. For chocolate, just use a bit of cocoa with powder stevia. Honestly, I like diy opens the doors for adventure. God bless.
@@KetogenicWoman yes of course but i was just wondering if the lime "juice" you are using has added citric acid. Just a simple yes or no question. I think it's important for a lot of people to avoid that ingredient. So maybe you could mention that it has citric acid if it does, and mention that some people need to avoid it. But I really don't know if it's in there. That's why I was asking. thanks.
Dr. Stephen Phinney has said on some talks that he worries we don't get enough potassium on carnivore. Not sure about that, but I've been taking potassium and magnesium glycinate pills a few weeks now, maybe 4 to 5 times a week. I forget some days. Some lower back pain I had (muscular) seems better. The mag pills are big, but I can get em down. Is electrolyte powder somehow "better"? Are pills for this no good?
2 servings of LMNT has 1 gram of carbohydrate (the maltodextrin) which contains 0 grams of sugars. It does have a slight glycemic effect though because it's so refined.
@@ktrump5882She is under contract for a few more shows & is trying to find ways to endorse electrolytes in general without endorsing their flavored packets. This recipe & the unflavored packets do NOT contain maltodextrin. She is doing her best until her contract expires. Please be kind; she is under a gun. 🤕
I thought that too but both the people who I know that now have issues were taking Lugols. So I think likely most people would be ok, but clearly not all. Which troubles me.
With their formula, I have concerns about taking magnesium without calcium and creating an imbalance. Why I no longer buy their product. The ideal ratio of calcium to magnesium (Ca:Mg) in your diet is between 2:1 and 3:1. This ratio is important because calcium and magnesium compete for absorption in the small intestine. A ratio outside of this range may harm bone health and increase the risk of other health issues
@nightlady2001 The ideal ratio of calcium to magnesium is 2:1. This means that for every 1000 mg of calcium you consume, you should also consume 500 mg of magnesium. A balance of calcium and magnesium is important because they work together in the body. Calcium is found outside cells, while magnesium is found inside cells. Calcium helps muscles contract and bones, while magnesium helps muscles relax and soft tissue
Watch any of Dr Bright’s interviews She thoroughly explains why u need to take it n why uneducated drs are scared of it. It’s fascinating. She does not sell Lugol’s either. Just advises to take it daily.
@@KetogenicWoman I have watched many of Dr Eliz Bright's videos. She advocates way more iodine than most people. I was asking if people were having problems from taking iodine.
@@susans7091 well it’s not a claim Iodine is water soluble like vitC. Need daily intake as excess is not stored. U would have to rly try to overdose urself lol
A sponsor is different than an affiliate commission. How did you get them to sponsor this video when its about making your own mix and not buying LMNT? Just curious
Hi there fellow Cdn! 🇨🇦❤ I can't get allulose to save my life in Canada, can you suggest where/how you got it Mrs. Ketogenic? (Sorry, I've followed you for almost a year, but I've drawn a blank on yr name. 🤦♀️)
200mg of potassium sounds way low. I was using 4700mg potassium with 1500mg sodium. You have a sodium/potassium pump in your heart you need to be aware of. Any chemists here they can pop in and help?
Ok, I was making a whole days worth of electrolytes. That's where the numbers are different. I would also break open a magnesium capsule and throw it in there. Shake it up and scoop out a quarter tsp.
4.7g is way too much to take I wouldn’t take more than 1g daily And only if water fasting or new to VLC, after awhile u don’t need it Potassium and ur heart is a big deal, I don’t want to mess with my heart.
Allulose has still not been approved by Health Canada. I was wondering if Border Control would prevent it from coming into the country. May seem like a silly thought but who knows ...
@YeshuaKingMessiah I didn't say that sodium was "bad." I said that sodium is not in the product "No Salt." And, sodium is not in all salts. Some are made with potassium, calcium, etc. The only time sodium is bad for someone is when they have sodium-reactive hypertension, which it sounds like what this threads' original commenter stated.
Somehow that math did not seem to match and I am not that good at math. If each tablespoon is 15 mL, which it is; and 1 teaspoon is 5 mL, which it is: 0.5 tsp = 2.5 mL. So if each serving is half a teaspoon (2.5 mL), there would be six servings in each 15 mL/tablespoon. Or are my eyes going cross?
The end result was 2 tbsp (6 teaspoons). So a heaping 1/2 tsp would get you approximately 1/10th of the recipe. It's also fine to just go with a level 1/2 teaspoon which would make this 12 servings instead of 10.
You will only have Maltodextrin if your flavoring just happened to have it in it. The three ingredients are all natural and do not contain Maltodextrin.
Mililiters we refer to when we scale liquids, for powder we use grams. And LMNT is not an honest company any longer their products contains maltodextrine. I would advertise them anymore. They lied to us.
Some of her recent videos, she addresses this fact, of which nearly everyone now is aware. She is under contract to LMNT for another few shows, will finish her contract & then be done. Complying with her contract is why she is making 'lmnt' off their website that has NO shaky ingredients added unless the individual adds them. ☺️
I have been taking Citrulline and found it basically tasteless until by mistake I got Citrulline 2:1 Malate and the stuff was undrinkable. So what taste do you get with the Magnesium Malate? I think it will taste awful!!👎
Anita type this into a search engine: does Redmond Real Sslt contain naturally occurring iodine? You will find the answer is yes. I think you mean milligram not milliliter ! Milligram is weight; milliliter is liquid measurement!
I'm sure they have plenty of people that want the convenience of buying the packets still. Plus maybe trying to help the people who can't afford or wouldn't buy it anyway to be healthier. Keto chow does it too. I have made their recipe too. Happy to find that because they use a laxative form of magnesium (boo!) so I can make my own. I just skip the addition of mag powder and take mag glyconate caps. But might try malate in it as it's supposed to be less likely to cause diarrhea and must not taste too bad in powder form since they use it in lmnt
Iam in Switzerland 🇨🇭 can’t buy LMNT I have problems with Oxylates I use Magnesium Citrate Potassium Citrate Celtic Salt or Redmend I have to make Lemon Salt In my Dryer 😊
So you're worried about the stories from people running in to trouble from taking iodine drops, but you're ok with promoting a company who LIED TO ALL OF US about the amount (100 time more than they disclosed) maltrodextrin in their product..? just so you can make money? Seriously?
@@DangerZone-w6y That is exactly what docs do with their jabs and drugs(promoting a company who lied to all’; quoting “IT IS SAFE AND EFFECTIVE “ !!!! Yet where is the outrage towards them!
It’s great stuff I use it daily in my water. If I’m water fasting, I lick salt off my palm if dizzy, nauseated or fatigued and chase with plain water. I use cream of tartar 1-2x a day in my nonSolé water then too Plus mag in capsules every nite regardless
@@susans7091 solé made with quality salt will have a multitude of minerals as the salt has them It dissolves them so they are all accessible to u too U super saturate ur water so it holds no more salt - there will be some in the bottom of jar and u spoon out of the top segment Redmond Real Salt Celtic Salt Not grocery salt or “sea salt”- those salts WILL prob give u hypertension and they are just NaCl
This video was about making your own LMNT to avoid extra items for those that need it. Maybe you do not realize that there may be contractual obligations for youtubers.
I have made this DIY version from LMNT's website too. For flavor, I used 1 packet each of True Lemon and True Lime with 1/32 of a teaspoon pure stevia extract powder. To me, it tastes just like the real thing!
Great tip, thank you!

And I also use flavored drops that I bought from gremberry farms before Richard closed his shop. He still may ship until he exhaust his supplyi don't know for certain that but never hurts to see. Mind you these are concentrates so stay with 5 drops than work up
So far my favorite combo
Mint chocolate chip
Coconut
Pina coloda

Raspberry peach ( just like Olive garden tea)
I’ll try that because using the Lime as shown on their website and in this video and it tastes nothing like LMNT citrus. I’ve been using 2 packets of the LMNT citrus every day for over 2 years so I know very well what it should taste like.

Malate gives me the runs almost. What can be used instead. Mag. Glycinate? Nice to make ourselves after the whole Maltodextrin debacle
You can add whatever you like, I simply made their formula I don't really know the difference in all the types of magnesium.

@@ktrump5882She is under contract for a few more shows & is trying to find ways to endorse electrolytes in general without endorsing their flavored packets.
This recipe & the unflavored packets do NOT contain maltodextrin.
She is doing her best until her contract expires.
Please be kind; she is under a gun. 🤕
Where would someone get the flavoring if that person wants watermelon or mango, etc.?
Some of the commenters have mentioned dehydrated or freeze dried fruit.
For clean version or maybe use watermelon juice. Or for a dirty version could use flavored water enhancer drops.
U can’t take too much iodine if ur taking Lugol’s by the drop
It’s water soluble, not stored
I thought that too but both the people who I know that now have issues were taking Lugols. So I think likely most people would be ok, but clearly not all. Which troubles me.
@ well it is or it isn’t water soluble lol
U seem to be looking at correlation at utmost, but prob happenstance
With their formula, I have concerns about taking magnesium without calcium and creating an imbalance. Why I no longer buy their product.
The ideal ratio of calcium to magnesium (Ca:Mg) in your diet is between 2:1 and 3:1. This ratio is important because calcium and magnesium compete for absorption in the small intestine. A ratio outside of this range may harm bone health and increase the risk of other health issues
The beauty of making it yourself is that you can change the ratios to whatever you think is best.
@@KetogenicWoman Yes, it is, but not my point.
Did not know this. So much calcium would we need to add?
@nightlady2001 The ideal ratio of calcium to magnesium is 2:1. This means that for every 1000 mg of calcium you consume, you should also consume 500 mg of magnesium.
A balance of calcium and magnesium is important because they work together in the body. Calcium is found outside cells, while magnesium is found inside cells. Calcium helps muscles contract and bones, while magnesium helps muscles relax and soft tissue
Omg that stuff has Maltodextrin !! Haven't you heard 😢oh wait you have heard
What problems have people been having with the Iodine drops? I had heard there wasn't enough in salt to make a difference.
Thyroid problems.
Watch any of Dr Bright’s interviews
She thoroughly explains why u need to take it n why uneducated drs are scared of it. It’s fascinating.
She does not sell Lugol’s either. Just advises to take it daily.
@@KetogenicWoman I have watched many of Dr Eliz Bright's videos. She advocates way more iodine than most people. I was asking if people were having problems from taking iodine.
@@YeshuaKingMessiah Yes, I've watched many of her videos and interviews. She claims extra iodine will be peed out.
@@susans7091 well it’s not a claim
Iodine is water soluble like vitC. Need daily intake as excess is not stored. U would have to rly try to overdose urself lol
A sponsor is different than an affiliate commission. How did you get them to sponsor this video when its about making your own mix and not buying LMNT? Just curious
The recipe is from THEIR website. So no problem for them to sponsor it.
@@KetogenicWoman oh that's cool! I didn't know
Hi there fellow Cdn! 🇨🇦❤
I can't get allulose to save my life in Canada, can you suggest where/how you got it Mrs. Ketogenic?
(Sorry, I've followed you for almost a year, but I've drawn a blank on yr name. 🤦♀️)
Yes, from iherb. iherb.co/gjqqe4Qs They have many things that we can't here in Canada!
Anita gets Allulose from iherb. I also order it from there (Alberta).
200mg of potassium sounds way low. I was using 4700mg potassium with 1500mg sodium.
You have a sodium/potassium pump in your heart you need to be aware of.
Any chemists here they can pop in and help?
Ok, I was making a whole days worth of electrolytes. That's where the numbers are different. I would also break open a magnesium capsule and throw it in there. Shake it up and scoop out a quarter tsp.
4.7g is way too much to take
I wouldn’t take more than 1g daily
And only if water fasting or new to VLC, after awhile u don’t need it
Potassium and ur heart is a big deal, I don’t want to mess with my heart.
@@YeshuaKingMessiah
Thanks,
@@YeshuaKingMessiah
question, I got potassium chloride and magnesium malate and I just use my red man's salt. Is this ok do you think? I feel great.
I've looked at a variety of electrolyte blends and none are as high in magnesium, potassium or sodium as lmnt, where do they get their requirements?
They explain that here: science.drinklmnt.com/electrolytes/lmnts-electrolyte-ratios-explained/?
LMNT is ridiculously Low in Potassium, which is why I quit buying it a couple of years ago.
200 in LMNT, some other brands have 1000
❤
Epsom salts is not the same.
I made this with the lime and it tastes nothing like the Citrus packets. I’m thinking they meant lemon instead of lime.
I only had lime, but that is the beauty of the recipe! You can use whatever you like!
Allulose has still not been approved by Health Canada. I was wondering if Border Control would prevent it from coming into the country. May seem like a silly thought but who knows ...
It's not approved in the UK either.
@@rubyhart7935 Right. Has Europe banned it?
They haven’t stopped any order I’ve placed with iHerb … so far.
I believe that the product No Salt is Sodium Chloride and would be less expensive than buying a second product.
Make it however you like!
@@NavyWife No Salt does not have sodium. Sodium is the "bad" element in table salt. I believe they use potassium chloride.
@@karynstouffer3562sodium is not a bad element
It’s what in any salt- NaCl
@YeshuaKingMessiah I didn't say that sodium was "bad." I said that sodium is not in the product "No Salt." And, sodium is not in all salts. Some are made with potassium, calcium, etc.
The only time sodium is bad for someone is when they have sodium-reactive hypertension, which it sounds like what this threads' original commenter stated.
Somehow that math did not seem to match and I am not that good at math. If each tablespoon is 15 mL, which it is; and 1 teaspoon is 5 mL, which it is: 0.5 tsp = 2.5 mL. So if each serving is half a teaspoon (2.5 mL), there would be six servings in each 15 mL/tablespoon. Or are my eyes going cross?
The end result was 2 tbsp (6 teaspoons). So a heaping 1/2 tsp would get you approximately 1/10th of the recipe. It's also fine to just go with a level 1/2 teaspoon which would make this 12 servings instead of 10.
Does the LMNT recipe include the hidden maltodextrin? 😄
You will only have Maltodextrin if your flavoring just happened to have it in it. The three ingredients are all natural and do not contain Maltodextrin.
You can add it if you like! 😅
@@KetogenicWomanYou are a funny Lady!! I Love You!! 🤩🎉😎😍
Mililiters we refer to when we scale liquids, for powder we use grams. And LMNT is not an honest company any longer their products contains maltodextrine. I would advertise them anymore. They lied to us.
Some of her recent videos, she addresses this fact, of which nearly everyone now is aware.
She is under contract to LMNT for another few shows, will finish her contract & then be done.
Complying with her contract is why she is making 'lmnt' off their website that has NO shaky ingredients added unless the individual adds them. ☺️
😊❤❤
I have been taking Citrulline and found it basically tasteless until by mistake I got Citrulline 2:1 Malate and the stuff was undrinkable. So what taste do you get with the Magnesium Malate? I think it will taste awful!!👎
Tasted fine to me! Tasted like LMNT.
Yeah I don’t do mag in powders
🤮 🤮
Anita type this into a search engine: does Redmond Real Sslt contain naturally occurring iodine?
You will find the answer is yes.
I think you mean milligram not milliliter ! Milligram is weight; milliliter is liquid measurement!
Not enough
@ but Anita stated None, which is not correct!
I’m also concerned as to what anti caking agent the Greek is using?
@@VeldaE12 Redmonds has .045 mg of iodine! Darn close to zero.
Why is LMNT giving out their recipes? Strange.
The have done that for years!
I'm sure they have plenty of people that want the convenience of buying the packets still. Plus maybe trying to help the people who can't afford or wouldn't buy it anyway to be healthier. Keto chow does it too. I have made their recipe too. Happy to find that because they use a laxative form of magnesium (boo!) so I can make my own. I just skip the addition of mag powder and take mag glyconate caps. But might try malate in it as it's supposed to be less likely to cause diarrhea and must not taste too bad in powder form since they use it in lmnt
Where the recipe? I don’t see it in description…. Only links to buy lmnt which is now very controversial and suspect and I won’t be buying it ever.
It is clearly labeled in the Video description as 'LMNT Recipe Link'. UA-cam doesn't like links in comments.
IHerb delivery is very costly I find
I make sure I buy enough for free delivery which is around $50 Canadian. I have never once paid for shipping!
Iam in Switzerland 🇨🇭 can’t buy LMNT
I have problems with Oxylates
I use Magnesium Citrate
Potassium Citrate
Celtic Salt or Redmend
I have to make
Lemon Salt
In my Dryer 😊
@@bcarnivore Magnesium Citrate is for people who are constipated. Gives me bad runs!
Lmnt has maltodextrin, very bad.
This is why it's good to make your own! You get to choose the ingredients.
So you're worried about the stories from people running in to trouble from taking iodine drops, but you're ok with promoting a company who LIED TO ALL OF US about the amount (100 time more than they disclosed) maltrodextrin in their product..? just so you can make money? Seriously?
@@DangerZone-w6y That is exactly what docs do with their jabs and drugs(promoting a company who lied to all’; quoting “IT IS SAFE AND EFFECTIVE “ !!!! Yet where is the outrage towards them!
Yup that's me. I never help anyone or provide any free content. Just here to get rich. 😏
So do you think sole water be equivalent to an electrolyte drink? Let me know thanks God bless
I don't know what is in sole water?
It’s just salt. If you’re sweating/in ketosis you’ll need all replenished.
It’s great stuff
I use it daily in my water.
If I’m water fasting, I lick salt off my palm if dizzy, nauseated or fatigued and chase with plain water. I use cream of tartar 1-2x a day in my nonSolé water then too
Plus mag in capsules every nite regardless
Sle water is just salt. That is only one of the necessary electrolytes.
@@susans7091 solé made with quality salt will have a multitude of minerals as the salt has them
It dissolves them so they are all accessible to u too
U super saturate ur water so it holds no more salt - there will be some in the bottom of jar and u spoon out of the top segment
Redmond Real Salt
Celtic Salt
Not grocery salt or “sea salt”- those salts WILL prob give u hypertension and they are just NaCl
Btw you forgot to add maltodextrin!!🫣😂
Why do you keep pushing LMNT?
😢
Never bite the hand that feeds you?!?🤔🤷🏻♀️
This video was about making your own LMNT to avoid extra items for those that need it. Maybe you do not realize that there may be contractual obligations for youtubers.
