HERE'S HOW to SAVE A FORTUNE on ELECTROLYTES! Simply MAKE YOUR OWN at home.

Electrolytes are very expensive, yet we need to supplement them on our carnivore/keto lifestyles. Bulk ingredients are readily available at a fraction of the cost of the commercially available brands.

Here's what you need and where to get it. Follow the simple instructions in this video and you will never have to spend all that money on expensive electrolyte supplementation again.

IF YOU DEVIATE FROM THE PRODUCTS I USE, YOU WILL HAVE TO DO YOUR OWN CALCULATIONS ON WEIGHT OF EACH PRODUCT YOU USE PER BATCH!

IF YOU WANT TO USE MAGNESIUM GLYCINATE instead of MAGNESIUM CITRATE: order magnesium glycinate instead. Here is the Amazon link:
Magnesium Glycinate Powder
TOTAL WEIGHT OF GLYCINATE FOR 100 SERVING BATCH: USE 125 grams (instead of the 350 grams of magnesium citrate)
NET AMOUNT OF MAGNESIUM per daily serving (substituting magnesium glycinate) = 225 mg

WARNING! - IMPORTANT! - IF YOU USE ANY OTHER BRAND (OR CONCENTRATION) OF THE INGREDIENTS I USED, YOU WILL HAVE TO CALCULATE THE NET AMOUNT OF THE MINERALS IN ONE FINISHED SERVING BASED ON THE SERVING SIZE (BY WEIGHT), AND THE NET DELIVERED MINERAL AMOUNT (BY WEIGHT) PER SERVING AS LISTED ON THE PRODUCT'S NUTRITION LABEL.

Magnesium Citrate Powder

Potassium Chloride Powder

Himalayan Pink Salt, Fine Grain

I use this flask to drink from as I showed in the Video. It is perfect for this.
BUZIO 40oz Water Bottle, Stainless Steel Insulated Water Flask

Brilliant idea. Not only saving a significant amount of cash, but avoiding any flavours or sweeteners too. It’s a win win. Mitch the Mad Scientist!

Isn't this how breaking bad started ? Thank you

I whipped up 2 batches yesterday, one for me and one to give to a friend who says he will give carnivore a try come New Year's (fingers crossed).

I added 6g of the mixture to half liter of water. As Mitch said, the taste is almost imperceptible. It's certainly not salty at all. There's just a hint of something in the background. More noticeable than the taste is the Mg and/or the K doesn't dissolve like the salt does so there was a bit of a "powdery" texture, especially in only a half liter. Think the fines in the bottom of a cup of espresso, French press or Turkish coffee. It isn't unpleasant or off-putting, just not what you're expecting when drinking water. This morning I mixed it in 24 ounces of water and it was much better. Tomorrow I'm going to start mixing it into a liter of water. I suspect the "texture" will mostly be gone.

I give this episode of Mitch in the Kitch, Mad Scientist Edition, two thumbs up. 👍👍

When I was using electrolytes I gave my son some of my mix, he is 10, he told me I was giving him ocean water. It was plenty diluted to my taste but obviously my taste buds had changed more than I realized.

When I first went HFLC, I did suffer fairly frequent leg cramps, and I’d say these intensified a bit when transitioning to carnivore (my journey has been I did try various forms of supplements to get some relief, including the big brand often bandied about by the usual suspects, and these helped a bit, but are very expensive. Now however, I simply ensure my meats are well seasoned (salt to taste), and do so by using a good quality salt (I use Redmonds [hard to find here in Oz], and also a large container of Pink Himalayan from Costco), and for the most part, I rarely get cramps. I have noticed that on the rare occasion I eat something I shouldn’t like a choc bar or similar, I’ll get severe leg cramps that night…kind of reminding me how stupid I was for eating the carbs again.

Thanks so much Mitch!! I'm a lifetime carnivore ..almost 83 .. and have never needed to add anything but salt to my meat ..and never had leg cramps . But my beloved husband of 6 years had them frequently until he finally went complete carnivore 18 months ago. He still suffers from them occasionally and this will be awesome.. I am wondering if I put some of this mixture in a salt shaker and he can use it on his eggs and meat? We run 2 ranches .. one in Alberta Canada and one in Colombia South America . We work hard every day . As everyone knows, there's not alot of real heat even working hard in the sun in Alberta . But in Colombia, the sweat runs off us like water in a shower !! I've seen it drip..drip off the ends of my braids ..and that's just from my head!! I eat alot more salt at the ranch in Colombia!! THANKS AGAIN LADDIE!! AMAZON ORDER IS ON ITS WAY!! ❤❤😂

I’ve been making my own electrolytes about 6 months now. The savings is tremendous. Glad to see others making their own. (If I want a flavor I just add a package of true lime or true lemon, to my drink.) I like the saltiness.

[williamtanner]

That was great!
So was my haul from Giant grocery today I picked up 19 lbs of ribeye roasts for $90! The sale starts again on the 15th of this month.

Good video. After I mix the batch of electrolytes, I put approx 1.6g of the mix into 50 or so tiny paper cups (I have a better scale). I use exclusively Citrates and Bicarbonates, they provide the additional benefit of alkalizing your urine. If you eat a meat based diet you will 100% have very acidic urine, acidic urine results in impaired excretion of uric acid and some other waste products. However when consuming citrates and bicarbonates one has to be careful not to consume too much right before a meal or it will impede digestion, which is probably why the popular brands use mostly Chlorides.

Sort of like the old-fashioned idea of "switchel" (which I still make) that combined things like ginger, molasses, salt, vinegar, etc., with water to make an electrolyte rehydration drink. Nowadays people buy Gatorade as a "sports drink" to do the same job, which it doesn't do nearly as well and costs a king's ransom in comparison. The medical community calls it "oral rehydration salts." The WHO has its own recipe as do many other medical sites. In any event, you can make your own so cheap, as you easily showed us Mitch, and save yourself a bundle! 🧡

Another great episode of Mitch in the Kitch. You may have given me the nudge needed to finally order bulk potassium and magnesium. 👍

Being a cheapskate, and because LMNT and the other brands are ridiculously overpriced for what you get, I've been thinking about playing mad scientist and whipping up a big batch of my own electrolytes ever since I became a carnie. My current mix is a couple shakes of Nu-Salt (potassium chloride) and a couple shakes of whatever salt is at hand (Redmond, Himalayan, kosher, sea salt or even iodized table salt if that's the only thing available) in a small amount of water. I down it like a double shot of cheap whiskey and immediately follow with a plain water chaser so I don't taste the saltiness. I do this several times a day. I recently started taking a magnesium pill (250mg) once a day because of cramps. It seems to have helped some but that could be coincidence or just in my head.

Old men are the best men, taking your advice, also one nutrient we, re missing causing cramps is Boron

[RonaldDEdwards]

I did the same exact thing a few months ago. (My idea!) I even used the same brand of minerals "bulk supplements". Funny thing is I also used an empty electrolyte container & the scoop. After I mix a cup of the mixture, I squirt in some water flavor enhancer because it tastes terrible without it. If youre on Carnivor diet, you need to add electrolytes or you will get cramps, heart palpitaions etc.

[warthog]

LOL...we think alike. Been making my own electrolyte mix for a year or so...

[merianjones]

New subscriber here. I like this. Wanted to save money. I’m not fully carnivore yet but planned on doing it. I take 3 blood pressure and pre diabetic. I want to be drug free like you. Enjoyed watching your videos. Thanks for sharing.

[CompassionateCarnivore]

Great video and presentation! I prepare my electrolytes similarly and usually add them to my SodaStream sparkling water, because it cuts the salty taste significantly.

[betsyeberle]

I definitely will be doing this! Thanks Mitch!! Commercial electolytes ARE expensive and none of the brands are my favorite. I want to avoid the additives. EXCELLENT video!!

[Dmz]

Wow thank you Mitch I’m on a mission to slash my cost. This is a good one

[TheDogLover]

Excellent visual walk through.. I’m going to make this up and give it to my grown kids for Christmas.. Thank you for taking the time to help us improve our health.. You are awesome….

[anneberg-qski]

Thank you for this video. Electrolytes are very expensive to buy here in New Zealand and I have decided, now, to make my own just as you have.
