It's harder being a salty babe than people think – the amount of sodium, electrolytes, and fluids that we need on a daily basis can be daunting! Here are my favorites that keep the presyncope at bay (usually, ha). Nothing in this list is medical advi...

Electrolyte Mixes

As someone who needs A LOT of electrolytes in my diet, I love having a variety of flavors and sodium levels on hand. (Always consult with your doctor for how much sodium, etc. is appropriate for you.)

This is one of my all-time favorite electrolyte flavors - the Rainbow Sherbet is so delicious, and you would never know it is sugar free!

I could drink these all day, every day… Which is convenience because I need to drink a truck ton of electrolytes everyday. It's not too sweet or too salty – just delicious and hydrating.

Listen, I'm not gonna lie – no “unflavored” electrolyte mix is going to be truly flavor free. But these are great for high sodium content, trace minerals, and no potentially irritating flavor ingredients for times when you may be feeling more flared ...

Sugar free, high sodium content, and a yummy cherry taste make these a great electrolyte option! I also love that this brand doesn't include any citric acid for those of us who are sometimes sensitive to it.

Did you know that you can get hot cocoa or latte-like electrolyte mixes? These are SO yummy and can be mixed with milk (or your fave milk alternative) and drank like a hot beverage if desired! A perfect hydration option as we get into the cooler mont...

Waterboy Weekend Recovery is my TOP favorite electrolyte option as someone with POTS. I need a lot of sodium in my diet every day, and these include the highest amount per packet that I've been able to find! The variety pack is a great way to try new...

This is my all-time favorite electrolyte mix – the flavor is delicious without being too salty. The sodium level is high, which means that as someone with POTS I don't need to drink as many mixes throughout the day to meet my daily salt needs.

The Workout Hydration version of Waterboy electrolytes is just as delicious as my beloved Weekend Recovery, but with a tad less sodium. I like having a variety with different levels on hand in case I need a little more or less day to day.

Supplements

Sometimes I just cannot force myself to drink another mix - iykyk. So I have a couple of tried and true hydration supplements that save the day in those times! (Always consult with your doctor before adding any supplements.)

While individually these don't have a crazy high amount of sodium and electrolytes, I love having these Fast Chews on hand for when I need a quick boost without needing to mix a whole bottle of something. My favorite flavor is the Grape!

With my dysautonomia, sometimes it's hard for me to chug down a bunch of electrolyte mix in the morning; instead, I love adding a dose of these in with my AM meds to get me  on the right track with my hydration.

Water Bottles

If you don't have a good water bottle, then you're probably gonna struggle to get enough water every day. It's basically science.

I have been counting on my Owala FreeSip Tumblers for years now. They’re great quality, easy to clean, and keep my beverage cold all day. I love that they now have this option with a handle AND the base is tapered to fit in your cup holder!

When I say I have at least 7 of these in my kitchen cabinet right now, it is not an exaggeration. The FreeSip lid with both a spout and a straw is the GOAT, and the 40oz size is my ride or die.

Sometimes I just want a rumbler with a straw and a handle that fits easily into my cupholder. This one has an added bonus where the lid also has a slider that opens so you can sip directly from the cup if you want! This style is also my favorite for ...

This is the only cup you’ll see me use that’s not an Owala - the Ello Monterey is not only so cute (my fave is the purple!), but it’s convenient, insulating, and easy to clean.
