Natural Factors Electrolyte Hydration Drink Mix - Tropical Punch (198 g)

Natural Factors Electrolyte Hydration Drink Mix in Tropical Punch is a powdered drink mix with 240 mg of sodium, 100 mg of potassium and 25 mg of magnesium in every 4.4 g scoop. Helps to maintain normal electrolyte balance. The 198 g tub holds about 45 scoops, and each one is meant for a 500 mL glass or bottle of water.

What Electrolyte Hydration Drink Mix is licensed for

It is licensed for sale by Health Canada and bears NPN 80145790. The licence also lists:

• Provides electrolytes for the maintenance of good health.
• Helps to maintain normal muscle function, including the heart muscle.
• Helps in energy metabolism and tissue formation.
• Helps in the development and maintenance of bones and teeth.
• Helps to maintain the body's ability to metabolize nutrients.

What is in a scoop

Each 4.4 g scoop contains 100 mg of potassium (as citrate), 75 mg of calcium and 35 mg of phosphorus (both from tribasic calcium phosphate), 25 mg of magnesium (as citrate), 100 mg of watermelon juice powder and 100 mg of coconut water powder. The sodium comes from sodium citrate, sodium chloride, sea salt and sodium bicarbonate, which bring the scoop to 240 mg.

Citric acid and malic acid give the tart edge, and natural flavour plus purified stevia leaf extract give the sweetness. There are no added sugars and the powder is gluten-free and caffeine-free. Natural Factors also describes it as non-GMO and keto, paleo and vegetarian friendly.

Tropical Punch or Lemonade?

The same mix also comes in Lemonade, in a 193.5 g tub with a 4.3 g scoop. Both flavours carry identical mineral amounts per scoop, and both tubs work out to about 45 scoops. Tropical Punch is the fruitier, rounder of the two, built on pineapple, mango and coconut notes, while Lemonade is sharper and more citrus-forward. Pick by taste: nothing else changes.

How to take it

Adults 18 and over mix 1 scoop into 500 mL of water, once or twice a day (up to 2 scoops daily), or as directed by a health care practitioner. Stir or shake until the powder dissolves. You can drink it before, during or after a walk, a run or a long day outdoors. One caution matters most here: do not use this product with other potassium-containing supplements or with potassium-containing salt substitutes. The full directions and cautions are under How to Take.

Who it suits

This tub suits adults who want a flavoured electrolyte powder without sugar and who prefer measuring their own scoops to tearing open single sachets. It fits a gym bag routine as easily as a desk-side water bottle.
