Title says it all. I’m looking for serious electrolyte powder, drink, supplement, DIY that is GLUTEN FREE. For when water isn’t hydrating enough due to an underlying medical condition Celiac disease. I hope this is OK to post. I can easily drink 1.5 gallons a day and gain no relief from horrible dehydration. I’ll also share my water bottle soon as I can!

    What about missing out on all the other vitamins, minerals, to have it completely balanced as far as the list of what gets depleted when your severely dehydrated over time. Have you had an issues using your formula longterm?

      Not sure why there are downvotes here. Vitamins, minerals, and salts get washed out overtime especially flooding with water in the system can throw things off quick. Something balanced is ideal to keep up on all needed electrolytes. This is for a serious health condition. Not a run through the park.

        For serios health issues you should consult your doctor. I’ve been having salty water like that while fasting for a maximum of 3 consecutive days in order to avoid feeling lightheaded, so that’s not nearly long enough to deplete my body’s vitamin reserves.

          I see multiple specialist and am in the hospital for testing regularly. Most of them recommend pedialyte or to keep drinking the body armours I drink.
