Answer

Yup.

I do better when I take magnesium in pill form and when I take potassium and salt in hot water with lemon juice. That makes it a dirty fast, but it still gets the job done. I still don’t love it, but I can tolerate it. Also works for me to put electrolytes in Spindrift lemon or lime. Also dirty.

Answer

I’ve used LMNT “raw unflavored” as well as the Thomas Delauer’s recipe of ACV/Salt/Cream of Tartar.

I don’t use it in ALL the water. If it’s that bad, what ratio are you using? e.g. how many mgs/ml?

Answer

Yes. I hate them. So I made the salts into capsules instead. I pretty much drink over a gallon of water a day anyway so I have no issues taking a big fat capsule here and there as needed. But omg I hate drinking electrolyte water.

Answer

Yeap, I put some Lite Salt in hot water or tea, and take the magnesium in pill form, not to mention fasts longer than 4 days make it trickier for me to drink the right amount of balance of electrolytes and water… so I’m sticking to 72-91hr fasts with a 4-5hr eating window in between them. I still have to drink electrolytes, but it’s a lot easier up to 3rd-4th day.
