A formula built around sodium first, rather than burying it behind flavor and sugar, is the difference between a real electrolyte replacement and a flavored water. ## 02 ### Magnesium is in the mix, where cramp prevention actually starts 80mg of magnesium (as magnesium citrate) per packet supports normal muscle function, one of the minerals most directly tied to the muscle cramping and fatigue that shows up late in a long effort. Plenty of sports drinks skip magnesium entirely; Trace Minerals ZeroLyte doesn't. ![Close-up of a tick](https://media.brandclub.com/pages-studio/_app/app_38af7787d9f7/assets/1785532521795-jG9APHrc.png) ![Dog swimming outdoors](https://media.brandclub.com/pages-studio/_app/app_38af7787d9f7/assets/1785532533476-QPnz87CO.png) ## 03 ### Potassium at a dose that matters 500mg of potassium rounds out the mineral trio most associated with muscle contraction and fluid balance, working alongside sodium and magnesium rather than being an afterthought ingredient in small print. ## 04 ### Chloride completes the electrolyte profile 1,500mg of chloride is included alongside sodium, potassium, and magnesium, supporting fluid balance and nerve and muscle function as part of the full picture, not just the two or three electrolytes most drink mixes stop at. ![Dog near water](https://media.brandclub.com/pages-studio/_app/app_38af7787d9f7/assets/1785532547628-jIfmb65D.png) ![Applying topical treatment at home](https://media.brandclub.com/pages-studio/_app/app_38af7787d9f7/assets/1785532558687-YOqNbjAU.png) ## 05 ### Ancient sea salt, not table salt or ordinary sea salt The sea salt in ZeroLyte is sourced from ancient salt deposits in central Utah, left behind by the Sundance Sea, unrefined and naturally rich in trace minerals rather than processed sodium chloride. ## 06 ### A full spectrum of trace minerals, not just the big three Beyond sodium, potassium, and magnesium, ZeroLyte includes ConcenTrace® ionic trace mineral complex, broadening mineral support beyond the handful of electrolytes most endurance drinks are built around. ![Dog in a home environment](https://media.brandclub.com/pages-studio/_app/app_38af7787d9f7/assets/1785532574058-zTMiFLPO.png) ![Veterinarian examining a pet](https://media.brandclub.com/pages-studio/_app/app_38af7787d9f7/assets/1785550171509-BvI7GsLv.png) ## 07 ### Coconut water powder adds a natural hydration source Coconut water powder is blended into the formula alongside the mineral profile, a natural electrolyte source many endurance athletes already recognize and reach for on its own. ## 08 ### Zero sugar, so there's no crash mid-effort At 5 calories and under 1g of carbohydrate per packet, sweetened with stevia leaf extract instead of added sugar, ZeroLyte replaces minerals without the sugar spike and crash pattern that can work against a long effort. ![Dog on an outdoor trail](https://media.brandclub.com/pages-studio/_app/app_38af7787d9f7/assets/1785550209979-wkadWHD0.png) ![Happy dog with owner](https://media.brandclub.com/pages-studio/_app/app_38af7787d9f7/assets/1785550219336-JJtYfyPp.png) ## 09 ### Genuinely portable, packet by packet 30 individual packets mix with 16 to 32oz of water, small enough for a running vest pocket, gym bag, or travel kit, built for the reality of fueling mid-run or mid-ride, not just a kitchen counter. ## 10 ### Recognized specifically for hydration formulation ZeroLyte won a 2023 Mindful Award for Hydration Product of the Year, from a brand with more than 50 years focused specifically on trace mineral and electrolyte formulation, not a general supplement company adding an electrolyte SKU to a broad catalog. ![Pet parent with dog](https://media.brandclub.com/pages-studio/_app/app_38af7787d9f7/assets/1785550230309-jgOdMPXj.png) Shop Learn Support Our Company Logo not set
