Sweat is not just water. It often carries around a gram of sodium per liter, with big differences between runners. Replace water without sodium on a long, warm run and more of it passes straight through. A drink with sodium helps you hold on to what you drink, and that is what this mix is built for.
For most runners it earns its place on runs over an hour, on hot days and for salty sweaters. Under an hour in mild weather, water is usually enough. Our electrolytes guide has a sweat calculator that tells you how much you lose and how many scoops cover it.
The best everyday hydration mix for runners who want something that sits well and tastes like almost nothing. Use it for long and warm runs, not as your only fuel. Comparing options? See Skratch vs LMNT vs Liquid I.V.

Yes, for runs over an hour, warm days and salty sweaters. It gives 400 mg sodium and about 20 g carbs per serving and is easy on the stomach. For short runs in mild weather, water is usually enough.
400 mg per serving, mixed in 350 to 500 ml of water. Carbohydrate is about 19 to 20 g depending on flavor.
Two flavors do: Caffeinated Lemon + Lime and Caffeinated Mango have 50 mg per serving. The others are caffeine free.
No. About 20 g of carbs per bottle is a small part of the 60 to 90 g per hour a marathon calls for. Use it for fluid and sodium, and add gels, chews or Super High-Carb for energy.
