I use Trace Minerals brand 40,000 Volts for a lil squirt in the water n doesn鈥檛 taste salty to me. I get it off Amazon n have one in my backpack, one at work, one in kitchen and one in my room. I don鈥檛 drink water without it now. Helps stay hydrated and curbs my food cravings. Same ingredients as snake juice. Hope this helps since you don鈥檛 like the salty taste in the water. 馃馃徏
