Potassium Chloride vs. Potassium Citrate: The speaker discusses the difference between potassium chloride and potassium citrate when making homemade electrolyte drinks. Potassium chloride is obtained by mining, while potassium citrate is made by combining potassium bicarbonate and citric acid. The speaker explains that recipes often call for using potassium citrate, which can be easier on the stomach and kidneys but may spike blood sugar, while potassium chloride is better for staying in ketosis but can be harder on the body.
Electrolyte Recipe Ratios: The speaker provides a revised recipe for homemade electrolytes, with the following ratios:
- Redmond Real Salt: 1/2 cup
- Potassium Chloride Powder: ~2.5 teaspoons
- Magnesium Malate Powder: 1/4 cup
The speaker cautions that the ratios in many online recipes may be confusing, with some calling for a third cup of potassium citrate, which is much more than the 2.5 teaspoons of potassium chloride. It's important to understand the differences between the two forms of potassium and use the correct amounts.
Importance of Proper Electrolyte Balance: The speaker emphasizes the importance of getting the electrolyte ratios right, as improper use of potassium chloride or citrate can be hard on the kidneys and stomach. Maintaining proper electrolyte balance is crucial, especially for those following strict low-carb or carnivore diets.
Podcast Episode Overview: The episode covers the speaker's personal experience with making homemade electrolyte drinks, the differences between potassium chloride and citrate, and how to properly formulate an electrolyte mixture. The speaker provides a revised recipe and cautions listeners to be careful when following online recipes to avoid potential issues with electrolyte imbalance.
