Are electrolytes bad for blood pressure?Updated 22 days ago

Traditional low-sodium guidelines aren't personalised. They offer simple, one-size-fits-all advice, even though most people get the majority of their calories from ultra-processed food, or UPF (56%, Rauber 2019), and are potassium deficient (90%, Rauber 2018). 

Our formula is based on research pointing to a more nuanced relationship between sodium and blood pressure. It's designed for people who need extra electrolyte balance and hydration. 

It suits a wide range of lifestyles, but if you have any concerns, we'd recommend speaking with a healthcare professional for advice tailored to you.
