LMNT: The Electrolyte Drink I can’t Get Enough Of

LMNT electrolyte drink

We like to obsess about calories and macronutrients, but can we have a moment for micronutrients? The essential nutrients are foundational to the functioning of our body.

As I’ve continued to study the mind-body connection, minerals are one of the most critical elements of a healthy connection. They also happen to be nutrients many people are deficient in. I found that focusing on positive thinking can only take you as far as the nutrients your body has to fire those positive thoughts.

Don’t get me wrong, your thoughts have immense power over your energy. Positive thinking uses fewer minerals than negative thoughts. But in general, you’ll never think or feel better without a healthy nervous system response created through a balanced mineral flow.

Sodium and potassium are vital in the flow and function of your nervous system. Think of sodium as the molecule responsible for communication between neurons that eventually leads to producing the necessary action.

Without enough minerals, specifically sodium, your nervous system becomes sluggish. A sluggish nervous system creates a stress response, causing metabolic dysregulation, a foggy brain, and weak muscle development over time.

Minerals may be micro, but they are mighty.

I didn’t know how much I was missing these micronutrients. Aside from the occasional salty craving, I didn’t necessarily pin my brain fog and slight insomnia to a mineral deficiency. However, I have noticed a significant difference since taking LMNT daily.

What is LMNT?

LMNT is a popular electrolyte drink mix that is easy to add to water to boost hydration and electrolyte intake. LMNT is free of sugar or artificial colors, unlike other popular electrolyte drinks. These are two ingredients that work against the electrolyte balance in the body.

As mentioned above, electrolytes are critical to the body. They are minerals that conduct electricity when dissolved in a solvent. That solvent is usually water in the human body, making mineral balance important in hydration status.

Electrolytes are minerals most often associated with adequate hydration. But hydration is just one piece of the picture. Arguably, they are needed for nearly every function you can think of, including brain health, heart health, mood, immune health, and hormonal rhythms. Everything from your emotional state to your breath rate depends on the sodium-potassium pump. A pump that is also dependent on mineral consumption.

Because of this, your body has a tightly regulated system that pulls minerals when you fail to provide them. While it can do this, it comes with many symptoms to alert you that this isn’t how it was supposed to be.

Your body was designed to rely on external consumption of electrolytes. Something that should come naturally but has gotten relatively difficult with our restrictive lifestyles and diets. That is why LMNT can be a great addition or supplement to your diet.

It ensures you get the electrolyte balance your body needs to thrive.

Why LMNT over other Electrolyte Drinks?

It’s no surprise there are a number of electrolyte drinks on the market. For some time, research has indicated the need for electrolytes, not just in athletics but to balance the body through extreme weather conditions (both cold and hot), help heal after illness, and quench your thirst. 

However, not all electrolyte drinks are the same. Many contain several ingredients, like excess sugar, that pull more electrolytes rather than replenish them. That’s why it’s important to choose an electrolyte drink or make one that is:

  1. Low in sugar.
  2. Contain a sufficient amount of sodium.
  3. Includes potassium and magnesium to create the electrolyte ratio for action inside the body.

I’ve tried my share of homemade electrolyte drinks, which have worked. But honestly, I love the convenience of LMNT. I add one packet to my 32-ounce Stanley for a perfect boost of electrolytes.

At first, I was skeptical of seeing any real results, even though there was a reason I used to make a homemade version. I was pleased to note I did and still do see results from consuming LMNT. Results that leave me coming back for more every day.

My Results:

A few of the results I noticed since using LMNT include:

  1. Better Mood Regulation
  2. Muscle Recovery
  3. Reduced Anxiety
  4. More productivity
  5. Decreased Cravings

I have also noticed more recently (as has my husband, based on his comments) that I have been able to regulate my nervous system more quickly.

I don’t want to say it has stopped me from getting dysregulated, but I have noticed that when I do, I’m not as quick to fly off the handle, lose my temper, or shut down completely. Instead, I feel like I finally have the energy to do the small practices, like deep breathing and the practice of emotional regulation, to help me move through it.

It’s not perfect, trust me, but it has been incredibly beneficial. Overall, I’ve experienced more of the excited calmness that comes with regulation.

Each packet of LMNT contains:

To get specific, each packet of LMNT contains:

When you first consume it, it can be slightly overwhelming. I recommend starting with half a pack for a few days as your body adjusts. I also tend to mix mine in 32 ounces of water instead of 12 or 24 to calm the punch of saltiness.

I have to say, I truly do crave this. My body loves it. As does my family. Even my father, who rarely tolerates supplements, has experienced great results from LMNT, especially with his digestive tract.

The drink packets come in many flavors. Or, if you prefer, they also have an unflavored option, which is one of my favorites. Plus, the price point is right on compared to other similar products.
