by LMNT · Premium low-sugar electrolyte

1000 mg Na, 200 mg K, 60 mg Mg per stick. Useful during the GLP-1 titration phase when reduced fluid intake can produce headaches and lethargy.
1,000mg sodium, 200mg potassium, 60mg magnesium per stick. Zero sugar, stevia-sweetened (Raw Unflavored has no sweetener at all). High sodium makes this the most useful option for GLP-1 users in the first 1-2 months when intake is lowest. Flavors are polarizing. The unflavored can be added to broth; the citrus and mango chili versions are popular. One packet in 16-32oz of water.
On a GLP-1, the problem usually isn't the drug itself, it's that you're eating and drinking less, so sodium, potassium, and magnesium intake fall along with your appetite. That shortfall is behind a lot of the first-month fatigue, headaches, and light-headedness people describe. The Ozempic and Wegovy prescribing information both flag dehydration and electrolyte imbalance as watchpoints, especially when nausea or vomiting is in the picture.
Most people sip an electrolyte drink in the morning and again mid-afternoon, when the slump tends to hit hardest. During a nauseous spell, small sips every 15 to 20 minutes stay down better than gulping. If you have high blood pressure, kidney disease, or take a blood-pressure medication, run the sodium and potassium dose past your prescriber before starting.
