I began watching your channel several months ago. In August, I saw my doctor, was overweight and had an A1c of 10.8. She prescribed a new diabetes medication that was going to cost $500/month. I immediately went on a ketogenic diet with intermittent fasting. I saw her for a 3-month check today. I'm 14 lbs lighter and my A1c came in at 6.5. I'm over the moon. she predicts I'll be at 5.2 in another 3 months and can start coming off medications. I'm 77 years old.
EuLyte: Formulated by a doctor who is a former olympian who eats a Keto diet who teaches nutrition professionally, plus we can see how healthy he is. That is as much credibility as you will find in any supplement anywhere. Excellent product.
I know you are promoting your product. Nothing wrong with that. I've been using it for a couple of years now and I love it.

So thank you for that
❤I am proud of myself for staying on keto -fasting diet for 3 years straight now. I was full of lots of health problems heart surgeries, prediabetes, couldn't hardly walk without a walker and lots more. ... None of my doctors couldn't help me The way Dr Eric Berg and Dr Ekberg have. Thank God for everything 🙏❤
Wow! Congrats. Do you mean keto + full fast days? Weekly cycle or monthly? Or keto with intermittent (hours) fast a.k.a time restricted eating? I am really struggling. I feel hungry and have cravings when I smell food. How to "feel full" without the bulk that carbs used to provide (rice, noodles). I know they turn into glucose, but without "bulk" the stomach feels empty. I don't take them, but it's why fruit juices are deadly - lots of calories, sugar, but you don't feel full at all.

I used euLyte for several months when I first started carnivore, back in January 2024. I struggled to figure out why I was having strong sugar cravings when I was ingesting no carbs! EuLyte is a flavored product that’s sweetened with stevia. That was what was causing me to white-knuckle through cravings. I stopped using it and began more heavily salting meals (only meat). Still to taste, not going beyond good flavor. The cravings STOPPED and I continue to feel great. I would have continued using euLyte if you offered an unflavored/unsweetened version. For those of us for whom a sweet taste causes cravings, euLyte is not an option.
As a chemist who used to work in pharmaceutical formulation, I find it much cheaper to buy food grade magnesium citrate powder, calcium citrate pills (rarely use because I eat a lot of dairy), and NoSalt (tm). They last for years, and if I start getting cramps (I have hard water so I usually do not have the trouble), then I start taking the electrolytes... including actual salt.
If you live in the south and do intense workouts, it’s highly doubtful you’ll get enough calcium from cheese. As I sit here and scarf down a block of cheese. lol I like this Dr Ekberg as he’s was more scientific than the rest.
Thank you!!! Just bought a jar of your electrolytes. I am a board certified physician with two subspecialities. I had been promoting LMNT to my patients and using it myself. Could not understand why I could not drop the last eight pounds. When I found out was in LMNT I threw it all in the garbage and emailed the company of my disgust. I cannot wait to try your product.

I’m actually having an electrolyte imbalance right now. Didn’t sleep well last night. I still have LMNT and Relyte, which both have stevia but I have to use something today… Crazy this video came up now! Thank you Dr!!
Hey Dr. Ekberg, inspired by your videos I just did a 100 hours fast - was nice and easy. I only drank a lemon water every morning, hope that did not hurt autophagy. Wish I could buy your eulyte here in Germany. Keep up the good work and thank you very much indeed
Dr. Ekberg, I appreciate this review. Kind of wish you would’ve tried out Dr. Berg‘s electrolytes. I have been purchasing his for a while, but I am going to purchase yours to see how it compares. I have ordered LMNT several times and will never order from them again, and I’m going to throw out what I do have. Thank you for this video.
Thank you for this video! Over the past month I was looking at electrolytes due to problems with leg cramps. I bought some LMNT but once I perused the ingredients, my reaction was, "Wow, I'm paying this much for salt?" And I had seen all the sugar in Liquid IV and ruled that one out immediately. I had not heard of the others in the top five, but I did find and purchase euLyte about a week before you posted this video and this is the one I will be using. Thank you for making the effort to develop this product. And thank you for the insight on Maltodextrin and hidden ingredients. I had previously heard that "Natural Flavors" is an "ingredient" to be avoided, because it can be used to hide a lot of things you may not want.
I’m so glad I am taking eulyte, best electrolyte form and dosage. I also salt my food with either Redmond Salt or Celtic sea salt for more of those minerals potassium and magnesium. I add another teaspoon also in my eulyte drink. Just recently I added a serving of magnesium bisglycinate every night which removed my random night leg cramps. Finally I eat an avocado a day for added potassium. I consider myself ketovore or under 30-50g of daily carbs.
Thank you so much!! I struggle with night time calf and foot cramps if fasting or doing keto. I have been unable to find anything that has a confidence-inspiring label, not to mention the florescent colors of the final solutions YIKES! So, I'm buying many of the minerals as individual caps or tabs; what a bother. As a retired biochemist, I APPROVE your message lol! And, I'm going to order Eulyte too.
I was getting leg cramps even while drinking these electrolytes… I added magnesium lotion directly on my feet and calves at night and they completely went away
Hi Sten, I love your content! Ever think to make a short video on how to make your own electrolyte drink? I make a gallon at a time and keep it in the fridge. I know what is in it at a fraction of the cost!
Very timely in the wake of the LMNT debacle. When I found out about the maltedextrin in LMNT I was super angry. Less so because it was in there and more so because they went out of their way to disguise it. Thanks for doing this informative summary and I will be checking out eulyte as a possible replacement
@@gonebyrv9748 I did not, but I did notice that the flavored mix does have "natural flavors" so I wondered if it did. I'm not using anything right now other than the salt shaker and some potassium and magnesium tablets and see how I feel for the next couple of weeks. This alternative is certainly far cheaper than any of the other of the electrolyte mixes out there and I get a full list of medicinal and non-medicinal ingredients so I can decide for myself if I want to take it or not.
Thank you Doctor. I have myalgic encephalomyelitis chronic fatigue syndrome. I purchased eulyte about a year ago and when I tried it I felt better in 15 minutes; so when everyone was talking about their morning pick me up (coffee) that morning, I said Eulyte is my pick me up. From the girl with ME/CFS, thank you, thank you, thank you. To me this is worth any amount of money.
Thank you so much. I used to use LMNT daily. But something happened to my A1C. It was creeping back up. I thought I was being good with not using any sugar and being low carb since I was prediabetic. Then I heard about maltodextrin being hidden in so called “natural flavors.” So now I avoid anything with natural flavors and we will see what happens with my A1C. I stopped drinking LMNT immediately. I also subscribed to your electrolytes. Dr. Berg and Steve from Serious Keto did videos testing electrolytes for maltodextrin. But yours is so much more comprehensive.
Been waiting on this one forEVER, Been using ultima for ~ 2 years. You said Tastes like jello. They have about 6-10 flavors. Not all of them are palatable, I've found the grape and blue raspberry are the ones i like. Sometimes I'll even add a splash of lemon juice or even use soda stream to add some carbonation. I want to try some of your product, soon. Perhaps a black friday sale😊. Dr. Ekberg, I owe you a lot, your information has enhanced and improved my life and i in turn have to educate some Drs. about nutrition. I think it was 1 class they had in college a long time ago and are still stuck on that USG recommendations. 🤯. You rock Dr Ekberg 👍
Thank you for the comparison. I have been drinking LMNT, but will be switching as I was not aware of that non listed material. It is tasty, and I don't have blood sugar issues, but still! I do like that euLyte includes trace minerals, so I will give that a try once my LMNT stash is gone.
Thanks for this useful comparison, quality is in the details. I need to start my day with a glass of water with electrolytes. I was debating between Redmond /euLyte. After years of reliable health information that I have gathered from your postings I chose the product you endorse and gamble your reputation on. I just ordered my second jar and am pleased that it comes unflavoured.
Anyone else think about the movie "Idiocracy" while Stan was talking about electrolytes coming on the rise. Soon we'll have them in the crop water and in water fountains.
Yes. It showed up on my TH-cam feed three days ago. I'm not joking 😂 The movie Dave showed up on my feed yesterday. I've seen both before and they both have truths to them that was before their time 😂
@@moniquemurphy4851 You misunderstood. I don't care who sells what. None of my business. My objection is that many rely on Dr Ekberg for information and that's how this video was billed. But it wasn't really informational at all - it was just a giant sales pitch. I find it extremely disappointing as I think he generally has good info, but to sell his product using misinformation under the guise of education is not what I ever expected from Dr Sten. (I do expect it from Dr Berg - no disappointment there as that's exactly who he is)
Good review. I have documented and compared around 31 electrolytes so far. I also drink electrolytes almost daily. Your analysis is great. Note, however, Ultima, one my chosen electrolytes for the ingredients , price and taste is $0.50 per serving not $1.05. For an even better price and a good ratio of ingredients there is Junp at $0.33 per serving. Some family members prefer no sweetener or flavors so the FastLyte Fasting Electrolyte is great at $0.17 per serving. I’ll buy some euLyte to try.
Thanks Dr. Ekberg for a very interesting discussion. I have been extremely satisfied with Ultima and I buy it online in the 90 serving size. If you buy at a 20% discount, the cost is approximately $0.50 per serving.
Merci cher docteur. Je suis convaincue de la qualité de votre produit. Hélas les frais de livraison pour la France sont trop élevés (39,95€). Donc, je ne pourrai pas en profiter. J'adore vos vidéos et regrette de ne pas être aux USA afin de profiter de toutes les possibilités que vous proposez.
Thank you Doc! I’ve been using Ultima because it’s keto. I thought LMNT was a good brand but now know they hide sugar. I’ll be purchasing your brand next!
During the last 6 hrs (in the morning) of my 18 hr fast each day, I drink one liter of water with one scoop of euLyte and it’s delicious. I love the taste and it keep the hunger away. Very informative video!
I know Euvexia is good stuff because it does wonders for my wife. She buys it and uses it all the time. My only problem is I do not care for the taste as it reminds me of lemongrass. I personally use Ultima because of the variety of flavors. If you can start making Euvexia in other flavors we will probably switch to that exclusively.
Thank you, Dr Ekberg for this fabulous analysis! I purchased the sugar free version of liquid IV. Allulose is the first ingredient & it tastes very sugary. It reminds me of Gatorade from the 1970’s. Also, the ingredient list says, “natural flavors.” That could be anything, even maltodextrin (?) I’ve been very suspect of it and very rarely drink it. Thank you for providing this so that I can purchase yours that has very thoughtful and quality ingredients in it.
I think i am on my 4th bottle by now. I will try the unflavored next time because i use half a scoop only in my water bottle due to the taste being a bit too intense. I am not sure how many scoops a day are ideal. When there was a shortage of eulyte this summer i could never bring myself to order any other product because the ingredients just looked dodgy in one way or another. Thanks Dr.E for this video because it confirmed what I sort of knew but not in such detail. I have given one bottle as a present last Christmas and it was greatly appreciated.
I use electrolites powder from dr Berg. It has big amount of potassium - 1000 mg, some magnesium 120 mg, calcium lactate, salt and trase minerals (though they do not tell which ones).
Thank you so much for this info. Very timely! I was shopping for an alternative electrolyte after learning about maltodextrin in LMNT. I bought Dr Berg's and will buy yours to try the taste. It would be great if you would do an analysis between yours and Dr Berg's electrolyte. You are fantastic!!
I just bought your Eulyte lemon and lime and also tested Berg., they are good, but very expensive for Canadians! Because we probably have to pay 2 taxes, the Canadian one of course, but probably the US one. Because your price surely includes a tax included in the sale price of $60 if it exists. But your price also includes shipping to the US. So when I order it for Canada, the US price of $60 is of course in Canadian dollars, but we have to add the big shipping costs of $30 more. So I pay twice for shipping for 200 km more. The price should be without the US shipping included in the price and then charge the shipping costs for Canada, so pay for my shipping once! Or go through Amaz camada which would be more advantageous for customers and you too I think! I paid Total = $137 Can or $1.53 Can per portion!
@@WildernessWarriors791 next time from Euvexia ou Berg i will pay more bottle in 1 shipping to pay less shipping! is better that way than every 3 month shipping, for usa is good, shipping is all ready include, but not here!
I’ve tried a few of these. LMNT spiked my blood glucose but so did Eulyte; so I have to ask what are all the ingredients in Eulyte? I contacted your company twice requesting a complete ingredient listing but never got a response. Could you please respond here and give a list of ALL ingredients. Thank you
Great video once again... Have been using euLyte for a while and I love it. I workout usually after 14 hours of fasting and take it to avoid dehydration... However I see now that there is a lot more to it. I thought it was a bit pricey at first but it's definitely high quality and when you break it down to unit cost is quite good actually. I will definitely continue using it
Very good video I was going to get re lyte from the Dr. Abs science video on electrolytes until I saw this video, now I am going with eulyte! Thanks a lot!
I was so grateful for this video and purchased Eulyte. I put it to the test with Iodine and much to my dismay, it immediately turned purple!! I’m quite disappointed and have asked for my money back.
so glad you did this comparison, Doc. I never ordered your electrolyte mix because I didn’t know they sold it on Amazon, and I travel around in my car. So niw I can start using it because I can get it sent to any Whole Foods around the country. YAY! You are THE BEST, Doc!
The form of potassium it very important - need to be careful with chloride- citrate is the best for assimilation & it’s very very safe unlike chloride! LMNT is very expensive & sub-par product - Relyte is good 👍
I just use half Morton Lite Salt and half Redmond Real Salt. You can add True Lemon, which has many different flavors at Walmart for like $2 and has only 1g of sugar.
Definitely prepared to try your powder next time, happy you bought it to my attention. I’ve been using Dr Berg’s electrolyte powder for a year. I have no idea how to stacks up to these ones you reviewed. Thanks for yet another great video.
I was giving a megadose of magnesium via my IV to deal with severe migraine pain less than 2 weeks ago at the ER. I have not heard of the Liquid IV brand until watching this video and wonder if they have named it that to try to trick people into thinking it's a medication. Many people might fall for something like that. I was in the ER because one cannot tell if having a stroke or just having a migraine without having a CT scan. When I got home I checked my bottle of magnesium citrate and it was merely 100gm (24%) per pill. You have informed your viewers before that Mg is a good pain killer. I couldn't remember your name at the time Dr Ekberg, but the ER doctor agreed quite strongly and said they use it for it quite often.
I was excited about the euLyte, but as you addressed the sketchy ingredients, you did not mention that the euLyte contains silicon dioxide, which many people need to avoid. I'd like to hear your comments on why that ingredient is in your product, please?
Wonderful break down. As a endurance cyclist, I ride 300 plus miles a week and have been researching the right electrolytes for improved performance. Ideal sodium levels are 1000-1400 mg per liter with a target of a liter per hour. Of course this would change if Im riding a 35 mile ride versus a 5 hour plus 80 mile ride with 8000 ft of climbing. How could I safely increase the sodium levels in your Eulyte product? Thanks for the additional minerals you've included in product!
I started out with Ultima switched to LMNT but I didn’t like the cost so now I just make my own. I like the higher salt but I also add a splash of apple cider vinegar. I use Celtic salt but since I drink it I find I eat less salt.
I have had hyperparathyroidism for 20 plus years. My blood calcium is too high which leads me to severe painful hand and foot cramps in the afternoons and evenings. I have been using Morton Lite salt to help alleviate the issues. The ingredients are salt, potassium chloride, calcium silicate, magnesium carbonate, dextrose and potassium iodide. It pretty much has all the major ingredients of these electrolytes except the trace elements. It's about $3 for 11 oz.
I suffer from cramps horribly and my recipe targets muscle cramps and is as balanced as i could get it. I developed mine to be a well rounded for everyone. it also has some things that most people are deficient in on a sad diet
You can easily make your own electrolyte mix from KCl, NaCl, and magnesium citrate. The amount of calcium is small and you get that from many other sources. It cost about 5 cents a serving, for one liter of water this way. No other ingredients, flavor yourself to taste. Sweat Ionic composition is easily found online.
What about getting your electrolytes from Celtic Sea Salt, Himalayan Salt and our foods? I've been mixing those salts and following your advice on intermittent fasting, HIT, less processed foods and reduced carbs dramatically. I really don't get cramps anymore and feel great.
I use Jocko stuff. I really enjoy the Jocko Hydrate fruit punch, no artificial colors, monk fruit/allulose instead, methylcobalamin instead of cyanocobalamin, clean and quality. I don't season my food with salt 95% of the time regardless though. Spices, unsalted butter, etc instead. The Jocko stuff tastes good and won't give me cancer.
I've been using liquid IV bought from Costco. I must say it has worked really well for me (long endurance cyclist and other sports). It's helped my recovery, post exercise headaches, cramps, etc. This means I'll now test out Eulyte, and hopefully get even better results!
Hi Dr. Eckberg. Can the calcium in this lend itself to kidney stones? I had one and my urologist told me to avoid any calcium supplements and only ingest calcium from my diet. Would this be safe? Thank you Dr. Eckberg. God Bless you for all you do in excellence for others.

Crazy this video came up now! Thank you Dr!!
An excellent summary, as always. Thank you so much, Dr.
Hey Dr. Ekberg, inspired by your videos I just did a 100 hours fast - was nice and easy. I only drank a lemon water every morning, hope that did not hurt autophagy. Wish I could buy your eulyte here in Germany. Keep up the good work and thank you very much indeed
Dr. Ekberg, I appreciate this review. Kind of wish you would’ve tried out Dr. Berg‘s electrolytes. I have been purchasing his for a while, but I am going to purchase yours to see how it compares. I have ordered LMNT several times and will never order from them again, and I’m going to throw out what I do have. Thank you for this video.
Thank you for this video! Over the past month I was looking at electrolytes due to problems with leg cramps. I bought some LMNT but once I perused the ingredients, my reaction was, "Wow, I'm paying this much for salt?" And I had seen all the sugar in Liquid IV and ruled that one out immediately. I had not heard of the others in the top five, but I did find and purchase euLyte about a week before you posted this video and this is the one I will be using. Thank you for making the effort to develop this product. And thank you for the insight on Maltodextrin and hidden ingredients. I had previously heard that "Natural Flavors" is an "ingredient" to be avoided, because it can be used to hide a lot of things you may not want.
Thank You doctor. I am eating the healthiest I ever had with no relapses all I can say about Dr.Ekberg I wish he makes more than one post a week
FACTS... Now watch Bobby Kennedy JR. Get to work
I’m so glad I am taking eulyte, best electrolyte form and dosage. I also salt my food with either Redmond Salt or Celtic sea salt for more of those minerals potassium and magnesium. I add another teaspoon also in my eulyte drink. Just recently I added a serving of magnesium bisglycinate every night which removed my random night leg cramps. Finally I eat an avocado a day for added potassium. I consider myself ketovore or under 30-50g of daily carbs.
Thank you so much!! I struggle with night time calf and foot cramps if fasting or doing keto. I have been unable to find anything that has a confidence-inspiring label, not to mention the florescent colors of the final solutions YIKES! So, I'm buying many of the minerals as individual caps or tabs; what a bother. As a retired biochemist, I APPROVE your message lol! And, I'm going to order Eulyte too.
I was getting leg cramps even while drinking these electrolytes… I added magnesium lotion directly on my feet and calves at night and they completely went away
Hi Sten, I love your content! Ever think to make a short video on how to make your own electrolyte drink? I make a gallon at a time and keep it in the fridge. I know what is in it at a fraction of the cost!
Very timely in the wake of the LMNT debacle. When I found out about the maltedextrin in LMNT I was super angry. Less so because it was in there and more so because they went out of their way to disguise it. Thanks for doing this informative summary and I will be checking out eulyte as a possible replacement
Did you see the comment above which indicates that Dr. Ekberg's mix also has maltodextrin?
@@gonebyrv9748 I did not, but I did notice that the flavored mix does have "natural flavors" so I wondered if it did. I'm not using anything right now other than the salt shaker and some potassium and magnesium tablets and see how I feel for the next couple of weeks. This alternative is certainly far cheaper than any of the other of the electrolyte mixes out there and I get a full list of medicinal and non-medicinal ingredients so I can decide for myself if I want to take it or not.
Thank you Doctor. I have myalgic encephalomyelitis chronic fatigue syndrome. I purchased eulyte about a year ago and when I tried it I felt better in 15 minutes; so when everyone was talking about their morning pick me up (coffee) that morning, I said Eulyte is my pick me up. From the girl with ME/CFS, thank you, thank you, thank you. To me this is worth any amount of money.
Have you recovered from CFS?

Thank you so much. I used to use LMNT daily. But something happened to my A1C. It was creeping back up. I thought I was being good with not using any sugar and being low carb since I was prediabetic. Then I heard about maltodextrin being hidden in so called “natural flavors.” So now I avoid anything with natural flavors and we will see what happens with my A1C. I stopped drinking LMNT immediately. I also subscribed to your electrolytes. Dr. Berg and Steve from Serious Keto did videos testing electrolytes for maltodextrin. But yours is so much more comprehensive.
Been waiting on this one forEVER, Been using ultima for ~ 2 years. You said Tastes like jello. They have about 6-10 flavors. Not all of them are palatable, I've found the grape and blue raspberry are the ones i like. Sometimes I'll even add a splash of lemon juice or even use soda stream to add some carbonation. I want to try some of your product, soon. Perhaps a black friday sale😊. Dr. Ekberg, I owe you a lot, your information has enhanced and improved my life and i in turn have to educate some Drs. about nutrition. I think it was 1 class they had in college a long time ago and are still stuck on that USG recommendations. 🤯. You rock Dr Ekberg 👍
Thank you for the comparison. I have been drinking LMNT, but will be switching as I was not aware of that non listed material. It is tasty, and I don't have blood sugar issues, but still! I do like that euLyte includes trace minerals, so I will give that a try once my LMNT stash is gone.
Thanks for this useful comparison, quality is in the details. I need to start my day with a glass of water with electrolytes. I was debating between Redmond /euLyte. After years of reliable health information that I have gathered from your postings I chose the product you endorse and gamble your reputation on. I just ordered my second jar and am pleased that it comes unflavoured.
Is unflavored really no taste at all?
@ hasn’t arrived yet…will let you know.
After every your video i am thinking ,,o this is the best video ,, Thank you dr for everything you doing. You just ansfer on my question.
Anyone else think about the movie "Idiocracy" while Stan was talking about electrolytes coming on the rise. Soon we'll have them in the crop water and in water fountains.
It's got what plants crave.
Everyone should watch that movie.
Yes. It showed up on my TH-cam feed three days ago. I'm not joking 😂
The movie Dave showed up on my feed yesterday.
I've seen both before and they both have truths to them that was before their time 😂
That's the Trump administration
Thank you so much for addressing this topic. I've been using LMNT. Bye bye LMNT, hello euLyte!!! Only because I trust you Dr. Ekberg.🙏🏼🙂
Which is exactly why he did this video. I love the good doctor, but this is a giant sales pitch.
@@Lucinda_Jacksonand why not? Berg is selling TONS of stuff.
@@moniquemurphy4851
You misunderstood. I don't care who sells what. None of my business. My objection is that many rely on Dr Ekberg for information and that's how this video was billed. But it wasn't really informational at all - it was just a giant sales pitch. I find it extremely disappointing as I think he generally has good info, but to sell his product using misinformation under the guise of education is not what I ever expected from Dr Sten. (I do expect it from Dr Berg - no disappointment there as that's exactly who he is)
Good review. I have documented and compared around 31 electrolytes so far. I also drink electrolytes almost daily. Your analysis is great. Note, however, Ultima, one my chosen electrolytes for the ingredients , price and taste is $0.50 per serving not $1.05. For an even better price and a good ratio of ingredients there is Junp at $0.33 per serving. Some family members prefer no sweetener or flavors so the FastLyte Fasting Electrolyte is great at $0.17 per serving. I’ll buy some euLyte to try.
Thanks Dr. Ekberg for a very interesting discussion. I have been extremely satisfied with Ultima and I buy it online in the 90 serving size. If you buy at a 20% discount, the cost is approximately $0.50 per serving.
And LMNT (which I won't be buying any longer) is only $0.96 per serving all in, not $1.35🙄
Merci cher docteur. Je suis convaincue de la qualité de votre produit. Hélas les frais de livraison pour la France sont trop élevés (39,95€). Donc, je ne pourrai pas en profiter.
J'adore vos vidéos et regrette de ne pas être aux USA afin de profiter de toutes les possibilités que vous proposez.
Same in Spain
Thank you Doc! I’ve been using Ultima because it’s keto. I thought LMNT was a good brand but now know they hide sugar. I’ll be purchasing your brand next!
I'm finally within 4-6 lbs of my goal wt. I eat keto & have been having some cramps in my legs during the nite. I will get some euLyte powder.
During the last 6 hrs (in the morning) of my 18 hr fast each day, I drink one liter of water with one scoop of euLyte and it’s delicious. I love the taste and it keep the hunger away. Very informative video!
Greetings from Norway, Love your videos. I’ve learned a lot, Doing Omad At the moment. Ordered the unflavoured one. Thanks a lot, you rock 🤗👍
THANKS DR.
Awesome presentation. Thank you so much.
We drink dr Berg’s electrolytes everyday and add some salt because we play alot of sports and workout
Adding sea salt or pink salt is called for.
Dr Berg did a recent video on using iodine to find maltodextrin in food. He tested his and proved that it didn't have any.
Good to see you again. My feed does not show you very often.
Thank You Dr. Ekberg. An Important Topic 🙂👍 -70SomethingGuy
Thank you for your health champions friendly videos! Keep it up!
I know Euvexia is good stuff because it does wonders for my wife. She buys it and uses it all the time. My only problem is I do not care for the taste as it reminds me of lemongrass. I personally use Ultima because of the variety of flavors. If you can start making Euvexia in other flavors we will probably switch to that exclusively.
Thank you, Dr Ekberg for this fabulous analysis! I purchased the sugar free version of liquid IV. Allulose is the first ingredient & it tastes very sugary. It reminds me of Gatorade from the 1970’s. Also, the ingredient list says, “natural flavors.” That could be anything, even maltodextrin (?) I’ve been very suspect of it and very rarely drink it. Thank you for providing this so that I can purchase yours that has very thoughtful and quality ingredients in it.
Great video, very interesting! Can you do one for collagen products?
This is a very informative video. Thank you!
I have two. I drink the Euvexia when I want a cold, flavored drink and I Use the Relyte in the unflavored. I love both of them.
Love EuLyte!!! Every morning and very refreshing flavor. ❤
I think i am on my 4th bottle by now. I will try the unflavored next time because i use half a scoop only in my water bottle due to the taste being a bit too intense. I am not sure how many scoops a day are ideal. When there was a shortage of eulyte this summer i could never bring myself to order any other product because the ingredients just looked dodgy in one way or another. Thanks Dr.E for this video because it confirmed what I sort of knew but not in such detail.
I have given one bottle as a present last Christmas and it was greatly appreciated.
Thank you so much for this information and your product! Now I gotta look into my hormones. 👍😁
I use electrolites powder from dr Berg. It has big amount of potassium - 1000 mg, some magnesium 120 mg, calcium lactate, salt and trase minerals (though they do not tell which ones).
Thank you so much for this info. Very timely! I was shopping for an alternative electrolyte after learning about maltodextrin in LMNT.
I bought Dr Berg's and will buy yours to try the taste. It would be great if you would do an analysis between yours and Dr Berg's electrolyte. You are fantastic!!
organic flavors is the alarm bell ringing loud and clear
Thank you Dr Ekberg! Will order euLyte.
I just bought your Eulyte lemon and lime and also tested Berg., they are good, but very expensive for Canadians! Because we probably have to pay 2 taxes, the Canadian one of course, but probably the US one. Because your price surely includes a tax included in the sale price of $60 if it exists. But your price also includes shipping to the US. So when I order it for Canada, the US price of $60 is of course in Canadian dollars, but we have to add the big shipping costs of $30 more. So I pay twice for shipping for 200 km more. The price should be without the US shipping included in the price and then charge the shipping costs for Canada, so pay for my shipping once! Or go through Amaz camada which would be more advantageous for customers and you too I think! I paid Total = $137 Can or $1.53 Can per portion!
You need to move out of Canada.
Check out the cost for ordering every 3rd month, it last for 3 months and is the best one I could find. I'm satisfied with the quality.
@@jimmycain8669 hahahha not, Trudeau is not good prime minister, but it better than new one you haved now, many of American check to come here! LOL
@@WildernessWarriors791 the price is a bit less, for all with 3 month sending, but still pay twice shipping price and probably tax too!
@@WildernessWarriors791 next time from Euvexia ou Berg i will pay more bottle in 1 shipping to pay less shipping! is better that way than every 3 month shipping, for usa is good, shipping is all ready include, but not here!
I’ve tried a few of these. LMNT spiked my blood glucose but so did Eulyte; so I have to ask what are all the ingredients in Eulyte? I contacted your company twice requesting a complete ingredient listing but never got a response. Could you please respond here and give a list of ALL ingredients.
Thank you
I’ve been using Dr Bergs electrolyte drink for 2 years. I really enjoy that one,
Great video once again... Have been using euLyte for a while and I love it. I workout usually after 14 hours of fasting and take it to avoid dehydration... However I see now that there is a lot more to it. I thought it was a bit pricey at first but it's definitely high quality and when you break it down to unit cost is quite good actually. I will definitely continue using it
Very good video I was going to get re lyte from the Dr. Abs science video on electrolytes until I saw this video, now I am going with eulyte! Thanks a lot!
God bless you Dr.Ekberg
This information helped me so much. Thank you.
I was so grateful for this video and purchased Eulyte. I put it to the test with Iodine and much to my dismay, it immediately turned purple!! I’m quite disappointed and have asked for my money back.
What is the iodine test?
so glad you did this comparison, Doc. I never ordered your electrolyte mix because I didn’t know they sold it on Amazon, and I travel around in my car. So niw I can start using it because I can get it sent to any Whole Foods around the country. YAY! You are THE BEST, Doc!
It sounds like it doesn't sell on Amazon
@@christaft3506 It was on Amazon, but was out of stock for several months until very recently.
@ it’s probably cheaper to buy on his website….I just need Amazon delivery to While Foods stores as I travel alot
@@teslah2997I don't think it's in amazon. I believe only from the link that he provided.
@@christaft3506I just bought it off Amazon, $36, 60 servings(can also get it for $31 with subscription)👍🏼👍🏼😊
Thank you for sharing this information. I use the Ultima but definitely will try your now.
An excellent presentation , thank you
Brilliant and SO timely!
I am getting amazing life changing and health rewards with just following intermittent fast combined with prolonged fasting continues since 2yrs
Noting that some popular products are more marketing-driven than effective for serious electrolyte needs.
Thanks Doc. I will order for the next sweat season, hoping to end the dizzy spells.
The form of potassium it very important - need to be careful with chloride- citrate is the best for assimilation & it’s very very safe unlike chloride!
LMNT is very expensive & sub-par product - Relyte is good 👍
I just use half Morton Lite Salt and half Redmond Real Salt. You can add True Lemon, which has many different flavors at Walmart for like $2 and has only 1g of sugar.
I use the dry packets. Less sugar
@@ruthyk7083 I don't add the flavors anymore because I don't care for them. It's totally optional, and it makes it really nice.
@@nickbuis3307 now I put in the lemon packet because the lemon actually helps me. Find its beneficial sometimes. I prefer to vinegar
True Lemon has maltodextrin in it.
Been on a ketogenic diet for 6 years now feel better.
Definitely prepared to try your powder next time, happy you bought it to my attention. I’ve been using Dr Berg’s electrolyte powder for a year. I have no idea how to stacks up to these ones you reviewed. Thanks for yet another great video.
I was giving a megadose of magnesium via my IV to deal with severe migraine pain less than 2 weeks ago at the ER. I have not heard of the Liquid IV brand until watching this video and wonder if they have named it that to try to trick people into thinking it's a medication. Many people might fall for something like that. I was in the ER because one cannot tell if having a stroke or just having a migraine without having a CT scan. When I got home I checked my bottle of magnesium citrate and it was merely 100gm (24%) per pill. You have informed your viewers before that Mg is a good pain killer. I couldn't remember your name at the time Dr Ekberg, but the ER doctor agreed quite strongly and said they use it for it quite often.
Love your channel. Do you have an episode on what the best vitamin/mineral supplement to take and if they affect ketosis and insulin levels?
Many thanks Dr Ekberg😊. Is there any podcast about the benefits and cons of spices? Merci
Thanks Doctor, have a nice weekend.
I have a container of relyte now, but when time to reorder, I'll consider euvexia. Thanks Dr Ekberg!
I was excited about the euLyte, but as you addressed the sketchy ingredients, you did not mention that the euLyte contains silicon dioxide, which many people need to avoid. I'd like to hear your comments on why that ingredient is in your product, please?
And did not say his type of calcium. Talked of others.
Which people need to avoid silicone dioxide, and why?
As to "why" silicone dioxide is in the product, it's a commonly used anti-caking agent in powdered products to help keep the powder from clumping.
Silicon dioxide is finely crushed sand.
I make my own, using the LMNT recipe. It’s so much cheaper and flexible, I can adjust the ratio to my own liking.
Wonderful break down. As a endurance cyclist, I ride 300 plus miles a week and have been researching the right electrolytes for improved performance. Ideal sodium levels are 1000-1400 mg per liter with a target of a liter per hour. Of course this would change if Im riding a 35 mile ride versus a 5 hour plus 80 mile ride with 8000 ft of climbing. How could I safely increase the sodium levels in your Eulyte product? Thanks for the additional minerals you've included in product!
I have seen a few recipes online. I actually use only salt and some ACV when needed. Magnesium baths as well...
And low carb beer...🍻
I'm new to IF & need an electrolyte. How much salt & how much ACV do I take per glass? Low carb beer 👍😄 ty
I started out with Ultima switched to LMNT but I didn’t like the cost so now I just make my own. I like the higher salt but I also add a splash of apple cider vinegar. I use Celtic salt but since I drink it I find I eat less salt.
Thank you Sensei Lee !! Greetings from Caracas/Venezuela
I have had hyperparathyroidism for 20 plus years. My blood calcium is too high which leads me to severe painful hand and foot cramps in the afternoons and evenings. I have been using Morton Lite salt to help alleviate the issues. The ingredients are salt, potassium chloride, calcium silicate, magnesium carbonate, dextrose and potassium iodide. It pretty much has all the major ingredients of these electrolytes except the trace elements. It's about $3 for 11 oz.
I suffer from cramps horribly and my recipe targets muscle cramps and is as balanced as i could get it. I developed mine to be a well rounded for everyone. it also has some things that most people are deficient in on a sad diet
300 mg. of magnesium glycinate daily should stop the cramps.
Excellent information!
You can easily make your own electrolyte mix from KCl, NaCl, and magnesium citrate. The amount of calcium is small and you get that from many other sources. It cost about 5 cents a serving, for one liter of water this way. No other ingredients, flavor yourself to taste. Sweat Ionic composition is easily found online.
What about getting your electrolytes from Celtic Sea Salt, Himalayan Salt and our foods? I've been mixing those salts and following your advice on intermittent fasting, HIT, less processed foods and reduced carbs dramatically. I really don't get cramps anymore and feel great.
I use Jocko stuff. I really enjoy the Jocko Hydrate fruit punch, no artificial colors, monk fruit/allulose instead, methylcobalamin instead of cyanocobalamin, clean and quality. I don't season my food with salt 95% of the time regardless though. Spices, unsalted butter, etc instead. The Jocko stuff tastes good and won't give me cancer.
I've been using eulyte for quite a while now. Love it.
Thank you for this information. I’ve been buying LMNT no more going to switch
I've been using liquid IV bought from Costco. I must say it has worked really well for me (long endurance cyclist and other sports). It's helped my recovery, post exercise headaches, cramps, etc.
This means I'll now test out Eulyte, and hopefully get even better results!
Hi Dr. Eckberg. Can the calcium in this lend itself to kidney stones? I had one and my urologist told me to avoid any calcium supplements and only ingest calcium from my diet. Would this be safe? Thank you Dr. Eckberg. God Bless you for all you do in excellence for others.
Always interesting Dr Ekberg, thank you. Hope you have a great weekend. 👍
Remind me to try salt in coke !
