Most electrolyte supplements on the market are just copying the WHO's oral rehydration salts (ORS) formula, which is a formulation designed for dire situations requiring quick, life-saving hydration at rock-bottom cost. But is that really optimized for athletic performance, daily hydration, or those of us living in desert climates?
Our CEO Paul (u/MYASD) just published a deep-dive white paper breaking down why the industry's electrolyte approach might be missing the mark: "The Electrolyte Delusion: Intelligent Hydration Beyond the WHO's ORS Formula"

The paper explores how current electrolyte formulations fall short and what truly optimized hydration should look like, which is what led to the development of InfiniLyte with all seven essential electrolytes PLUS trace minerals like zinc, copper, manganese…

Sorry i liked you for your laboratory equipment and other stuff, but this is too much, SGLT1 transporter is the one the most crucial "hack" in the ORS, if i eat your electrolytes it wont even help me counter vagal syncope immediately, i need instant sodium in plasma so it drags water

Well this comment shows you really didn't read the paper... Show me where we are marketing InfiniLyte for vasovagal syncope. It clearly states we formulated a product for athletes losing electrolytes to sweat. You are right, you do need instant sodium for your medical condition. You need to be drinking salty sugar water when that happens, which you can do by dumping salt and sugar in a glass for 10 cents.
