What Makes Re-Lyte Different: The Formula Behind Better Hydration

Most of us know hydration matters. But many people don’t realize that effective hydration is about more than drinking more water. Your body also needs electrolytes.

Electrolytes are minerals like sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium that help regulate fluid balance, support muscle and nerve function, and help your cells use the water you drink. Without enough electrolytes, your body can struggle to stay properly hydrated, even if you’re drinking plenty of water throughout the day.

That’s where Re-Lyte Hydration comes in.

At Redmond, we created Re-Lyte to support healthy hydration with a balanced blend of electrolytes, meaningful amounts of sodium, clean ingredients, and flavors people love drinking. Powered by Redmond Real Salt and formulated with keto, fitness, and endurance experts, Re-Lyte was designed to help people hydrate more effectively, feel better, and actually look forward to their daily hydration routine. 

And because a hydration mix only works if you actually want to drink it, Re-Lyte comes in a variety of flavors designed to make daily hydration something you can look forward to. 

Why Electrolytes Matter for Hydration

When you sweat, your body loses both water and electrolytes. Sodium is one of the main minerals lost through sweat, but potassium, magnesium, and calcium also play important roles in maintaining hydration and supporting normal body function.

Each electrolyte has a specific job:

• Sodium helps maintain fluid balance and supports muscle and nerve function.

• Potassium helps regulate fluids inside cells and supports muscle contractions.

• Magnesium supports energy production, hydration, and muscle recovery.

• Calcium supports strong bones and teeth while also playing an important role in normal muscle contractions and nerve function. 

When these minerals fall out of balance, you may notice symptoms like fatigue, headaches, muscle cramps, brain fog, or sluggishness.

That’s one reason athletes, people who work outdoors, travelers, and people following low-carb or fasting lifestyles often pay close attention to their electrolyte intake.

Re-Lyte Was Designed Around Electrolyte Balance

Re-Lyte Hydration contains a carefully balanced blend of electrolytes designed to support hydration better than water alone.

Most varieties of Re-Lyte Hydration contain:

• 810 mg sodium

• 400 mg potassium

• 50 mg magnesium

• 60 mg calcium

• Coconut water powder

• 60+ trace minerals from Real Salt

Sodium is a big part of what makes the Re-Lyte formula different. As cardiovascular research scientist Dr. James DiNicolantonio explains:

“Most studies indicate that consuming between 3,000 to 5,000 mg of sodium per day is optimal for normal, healthy people. That’s around 1 ⅓ to 2 teaspoons of salt per day.

On average, people lose around 1,200 mg of sodium per hour of exercise through sweat. That’s around half a teaspoon of salt lost in sweat per hour of exercise. Thus, the more you sweat, the more salt you need.”

That’s one reason Re-Lyte contains meaningful amounts of sodium from Redmond Real Salt, helping replenish what your body naturally loses throughout the day. 

Why Re-Lyte Uses Redmond Real Salt

The source of electrolytes matters too.

Re-Lyte is made with Redmond Real Salt, an ancient, unrefined sea salt mined in Utah. Unlike heavily processed table salt, Real Salt contains more than 60 naturally occurring trace minerals and no additives like anti-caking agents or dextrose.

Those naturally occurring trace minerals are part of what makes Real Salt unique, while its subtly sweet, salty flavor contributes to the taste of Re-Lyte. Many people notice that Re-Lyte tastes more balanced and satisfying than overly sweet sports drinks. Real Salt also comes from a protected ancient seabed, naturally shielded from many modern environmental pollutants.

Why Sodium and Potassium Work Better Together

Sodium and potassium work together to help your body maintain fluid balance and support normal muscle and nerve function.

That’s why most Re-Lyte varieties contain sodium and potassium in a 2:1 ratio. This balance provides two key electrolytes that work together to support healthy, effective hydration.

Why Re-Lyte Uses Two Forms of Magnesium

Magnesium supports muscle function, energy production, and electrolyte balance, making it another important part of healthy hydration.

Re-Lyte uses a 50/50 blend of magnesium malate and magnesium glycinate, two bioavailable forms of magnesium. Magnesium malate supports cellular energy production, while magnesium glycinate supports relaxation and a healthy nervous system. By including both, Re-Lyte provides a well-rounded source of this important electrolyte alongside sodium and potassium.

Clean Ingredients That Support Everyday Hydration

At Redmond, we believe hydration products should support your health, not complicate it.

That’s why Re-Lyte Hydration contains no added sugar, artificial colors, artificial flavors, or artificial sweeteners. Instead, flavored Re-Lyte products are sweetened with stevia and flavored primarily with ingredients derived from fruits and plants.

The formula is also designed to fit a variety of lifestyles, including keto, paleo, low-carb, and fasting routines.

Healthy Hydration for Everyday Life

Hydration isn’t only for intense workouts or endurance events. Your body needs water and electrolytes every day.

That’s why we made Re-Lyte with a balanced blend of key electrolytes, meaningful amounts of sodium, two forms of magnesium, Redmond Real Salt, and simple, clean ingredients. And we made it taste great, because staying hydrated is a lot easier when you love what you’re drinking.

It all comes back to: Hydrate Better, Feel Better. Re-Lyte makes it easy to give your body the electrolytes it needs to support healthy hydration every day.
