Homemade Electrolyte Recipe

32 oz water 
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon Nu Salt or No Salt 
¼ teaspoon baking soda 
2-1/2 teaspoons of sugar   

Makes a quart 

It’s simple and it does the job.  Make up a bottle and keep refrigerated to use as needed.

This is an important item to add to your emergency supplies.  Package each ingredient separately in a small zip lock bag and label.  Include a ¼ and a 1 teaspoon measuring spoon.  

For those sensitive to sugar, you could reduce the amount a bit.  But keep in mind that it is the sugar that makes the drink absorbable to the cells.   

NOTE:  Commercial hydration drinks (Powerade, Gatorade, etc.) generally list high fructose corn syrup as the primary ingredient (after water).  Another reason to make your own recipe.
