If you’ve ever wondered what electrolytes are or why they matter for your health, you’re not alone! Electrolytes are essential minerals that play a critical role in hydration, energy, and overall wellness - especially when you’re active, recovering, or looking to feel your best.

At Sol-ti, we believe true hydration goes beyond just drinking water. That’s why we formulate our beverages with natural electrolytes, functional ingredients, and clean, plant-based support to help your body thrive.

What Are Electrolytes?

Electrolytes are minerals like sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus - that carry an electric charge. When dissolved in fluid, they help regulate important functions throughout your body, including:

  • Maintaining fluid balance and cellular hydration

  • Supporting muscle function and preventing cramps

  • Regulating nerve function and pH levels

Even a small imbalance can leave you feeling sluggish, foggy, or low-energy. That’s why getting enough electrolytes through food and drink is key to staying vibrant and healthy.

Why Are Electrolytes Important?

Hydration isn’t just about drinking enough water—it’s about the right balance of fluids and minerals. If your electrolyte levels drop, you can experience symptoms like:

  • Fatigue or low energy

  • Muscle cramps and weakness

  • Headaches

  • Dizziness or lightheadedness

  • Nausea

  • Irregular heartbeat

Electrolyte imbalances can result from sweating, illness, fasting, or even following a diet that’s too low in minerals. That’s why it’s important to replenish electrolytes regularly—especially if you live an active lifestyle or live in a hot climate.
