Drinklyte Drinklyte Advanced ORS Electrolyte Powder

Our Verdict

Drinklyte is a legitimate ORS formulation with functional glucose for sodium co-transport, but the inclusion of maltodextrin, modified food starch, and gum acacia as fillers detracts from an otherwise clean profile. The 630mg sodium and 270mg potassium per serving are well-suited for acute dehydration recovery, though the product lacks magnesium and calcium entirely.
