Top Doc Reveals What To Drink Instead
Dr. Chad Walding, DPT
NativePath Co-Founder
Thanks to popular sports drinks advertisements, you might think that these beverages will help you stay hydrated.
That fact is, many of these popular drinks and electrolyte supplements might be doing more harm than good.
And if you’re still drinking 8+ glasses of plain water a day, hoping to meet your hydration needs, I’ve got news for you…
Electrolytes are essential minerals—like sodium, potassium, chloride, magnesium, and calcium—that are vital to many key functions in the body.
Electrolytes are important because they help:
When you drink plain water all day, you’re actually diluting your levels of these important electrolytes, and consequently, your cells are unable to function properly.
As a result, an estimated 75 percent of Americans are chronically dehydrated*.
Case and point: while drinking water throughout the day is important… We must also be aware that plain water only solves part of the hydration problem.
Balancing electrolyte levels is arguably the most important factor in optimal hydration.
To help solve this problem, hydration drinks, and electrolyte supplements have flooded the health market.
Read on to discover the good, the bad, and the ugly regarding hydration drinks and what to look for instead when choosing the right electrolyte-balancing supplement for you.
As you just learned, electrolytes are one of the most critical factors in rehydration and recovery.
These minerals help send and receive signals to your brain, heart, gut, and muscles that keep the body functioning. They help direct the flow of water in and out of cells, which is essential for repairing and rehydrating muscles.
Remember, the body loses electrolytes by over-drinking water.
Therefore, properly recovering those lost electrolytes is crucial; if not done, there can be uncomfortable side effects. These can include fatigue, headaches, muscle cramps, low energy, or not feeling well overall.
While many sports drinks may contain electrolytes, they often do not contain all 5 of the most important electrolytes.
That said, your hydration drink must contain all 5 of the following electrolytes for balanced hydration:
Sodium is the main mineral that helps regulate fluid balance, nerve function and muscle contraction – however, too much sodium can strain the heart.
This is where you need to read the label very carefully – especially for folks over 50.
Some popular electrolyte supplements, like LMNT, contain up to 1000 mg of sodium per serving, which is 43 percent of your daily value!
With nearly half the amount of sodium the average adult needs daily, you would need to carefully monitor your dietary salt levels while taking an electrolyte supplement like LMNT.
Or, take the easier approach and find one with less sodium.
Now, if you’re an athlete or you exercise vigorously every day, you may be able to tolerate more sodium than the average person to make up for the sodium loss that occurs through excessive sweating during hard workouts.
However, 200mg of sodium per serving is more than enough for less active individuals.
What do Gatorade, Powerade, and Vitamin Water all have in common?
They all pack just as much sugar and calories as a candy bar!
Sports drinks should be avoided if you have problematic blood sugar or if you are watching your weight.
Because if you're drinking a sports drink as a sedentary to lightly-active individual, you're likely drinking more sugar and calories than you're burning off.
But, there is one caveat.
While high amounts of sugar are not ideal for most people, there are times when it might be necessary. Many sports drinks are designed to fuel high-performance athletes during intense workouts or athletic competitions.
However, if you do not fall into this category, sports drinks might do more harm than good.
That’s why I do not recommend people over 50 use sports drinks to meet their hydration needs.
There is a far better way to maintain adequate hydration – with zero sugar - which I’ll share shortly
Artificial colors and flavors from coal tar derivatives, such as Red #40, a possible carcinogen, and Yellow #6, which causes sensitivity to sickness, are commonly used in hydration drinks and electrolyte supplements.
Even artificial sweeteners like aspartame can be bad for you.
Aspartame comes with a list of potential side effects, with the most profound being the possible detrimental effect on the neurotransmitters in the brain. Headaches are a common side effect of aspartame (sometimes camouflaged as phenylalanine on the label).
By far, the biggest problem with hydration drinks is that they often lack amino acids.
Amino acids, often referred to as the building blocks of proteins, are compounds that play many critical roles in your body.
There are nine “essential” amino acids that you must get from your diet since the human body cannot make them on its own. Hence, we must get essential amino acids (EAAs) through diet or supplementation.
The nine EAAs include:
While amino acids are most often associated with supporting muscle tissue…
Most people don’t know that they’re also mission-critical for supporting the absorption and storage of fluids.
Studies show when amino acid levels increase, so does water absorption.
They stimulate the small intestine to absorb more water and essential minerals that are necessary for muscle and nerve control.
They enhance water absorption and retention and help replace the vital electrolytes that are lost due to drinking plain water and sweating.
Research is now showing that the addition of amino acids to a hydration drink can significantly enhance the absorption and retention of fluid over that of even an electrolyte drink.
That’s why you should add electrolytes AND amino acids to your water.
The fact is this…
That’s why we created Native Hydrate.
A revolutionary 2-in-1 electrolyte & amino acid hydration drink.
Native Hydrate not only contains the 5 key electrolytes your body needs, but it also contains all 9 essential amino acids for superior hydration.
Due to the powerful health benefits of amino acids mentioned above, it was impossible to consider leaving them out of our hydration formula.
But we didn’t stop there…
Nutrients like B12, biotin, folate, zinc, glycine, and more have all been proven to:
These are the essential nutrients your body needs to keep you vibrant and well into your golden years.
-Dr. Chad Walding, DPT, and NativePath Co-Founder
“Hydration is not just about drinking water; it’s about replenishing your cells with essential nutrients like electrolytes & amino acids.”
Native Hydrate is considered a superior hydration drink because it contains…
Unfortunately, other hydration supplements cut corners with cheaper, less effective doses of electrolytes to increase their profit margins at your expense.
Native Hydrate, on the other hand, follows a strict set of guidelines to ensure you’re getting the best product possible…
• Every ingredient must have numerous studies showing its ability to support optimal hydration to help improve muscle health, recovery, and much more…
• It had to contain the right form & an effective dose of both key forms of electrolytes and essential amino acids to make sure that you’re getting the hydration benefits you’re looking for – without burning a hole in your wallet…
• It had to contain the correct scientific form of each ingredient to ensure the absolute best absorbability and balanced hydration without causing any unwanted side effects…
• It had to meet strict manufacturing guidelines, including GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) testing, screening for contaminants, and dissolution and disintegration testing to ensure it would be easily absorbed.
This requires LOTS of extra time and money, and most companies skimp on these areas.
It takes hard work to do the right thing and not cut corners. Sometimes, that decision cuts into profits.
But our #1 goal with our Native Hydrate is to provide an effortless way to balance hydration levels within your body – using only the most effective and pure ingredients that have been shown to work.
Plus…
I’m sure you think that with all the premium ingredients in Native Hydrate, it will cost a fortune…
And if you were to go out and buy each of these ingredients on their own…
It would.
And that’s because most hydration drinks do not contain all 5 key electrolytes and 8 essential amino acids.
In fact, I recently searched for similar electrolyte and amino acid supplements on Amazon just to see what it would cost…
Not only was it a headache trying to find supplements that used the right forms and correct doses of each ingredient with zero added sugar or artificial ingredients…
But the total cost to get a 30-day supply of the electrolytes and amino acids found in Native Hydrate was almost $100!
And that doesn’t even include the additional 11 vitamins our Native Hydrate drink mix contains…
If you’re retired or living on a fixed income, that’s probably not something you could afford to pay every month…
But with Native Hydrate, you’ll only pay a fraction of that.
We have done everything possible to keep the price affordable while ensuring you get ingredients supporting balanced hydration, muscle health, and recovery.
What's more, it's so much easier to get these key electrolytes plus amino acids in one convenient supplement rather than mixing and matching them yourself.
All the work has already been done for you.
Along with how much and how often you need to take it for best results.
At NativePath, we prioritize nutrients from nature, for the purest form your body can recognize and absorb.
That’s why our formula uses electrolytes meticulously sourced from seaweed harvested from clean waters that are certified for use in organic systems, non-GMO, allergen-free, and EU health certified.
So, not only are you getting the highest-grade source of hydrating nutrients, but you’re also getting the total-body benefits of additional vitamins in every serving.
The meticulous process of sourcing high-quality electrolytes without any unnecessary additives or chemicals can add weeks (sometimes months) to our manufacturing operations.
But that’s not the only thing affecting the supply chain… Labor shortages and equipment availability are also causing a ripple effect of global bottlenecks.
This means it can take a very long time to produce even a single bag of Native Hydrate…
As a result, shortages may come as a consequence.
On top of that…
We have hundreds of customers who are already asking to place large pre-orders…
The expected increases in order volume will likely put an even BIGGER strain on production.
As a result, it’s very possible that we won’t be able to make this offer to all of our valued NativePath customers due to stock restrictions…
Lucky for you, we set aside a private supply with your name on it.
Since we know how much you care about your well-being, you are getting priority access to our new Native Hydrate Amino Acids + Electrolytes.
Where you can stock up on Native Hydrate for as low as $28 per bag.
That’s a whopping 44% OFF!
Plus, when you take advantage of this special launch offer, you’ll also be guaranteed to get our absolute best discount – even if it costs us more to make our Native Hydrate down the road.
Which it probably will with the way inflation is going.
We’ll even pick up the shipping cost and give you a FREE tumbler.
That’s right… You get FREE shipping and tumbler on today’s order.
In the breakthrough Army study, participants consumed 33 ounces of amino acid and electrolyte water to achieve optimal hydration.
Which is why we recommend 1-3 heaping servings of Native Hydrate daily, morning or night (or both).
Some studies show that many benefits, such as energy and mental clarity can be noticed in just a few days after correcting your hydration.
That said, hydration is something that needs to be replenished consistently, every day.
Thus, many of my patients find the most success with long-term daily use of Native Hydrate to help ensure that one’s fluid levels are maintained for good.
The benefits of Native Hydrate’s strengthening powers are only truly realized when they’re taken day-after-day and month-after-month.
Simply put, amino acids and electrolytes are no “miracle supplement”...
Hydration supplements like these only work if you...
In other words, adding a little bit of amino acids and electrolytes into your diet here and there isn’t going to cut it.
Consistency is key.
You need to make sure you’re getting enough into your diet every single day.
Which is why I recommend my clients to:

PS. If you're still here, you might have some questions:
Unlike other commercial hydration products, Native Hydrate contains high-quality amino acids that are proven to be the optimal way to hydrate, along with subtle yet effective amounts of electrolytes.
Most other hydration products contain way more sodium than you need, unless you’re working out for multiple hours every day.
Native Hydrate contains the equivalent of a quarter teaspoon of salt for optimal hydration delivery without disrupting your health.
It doesn’t undergo massive processing like most hydration supplements do, or have any added sugars.
Aside from essential amino acids, branched chain amino acids, and electrolytes, Native Hydrate includes 11 additional nutrients:
As you can tell, Native Hydrate offers so much more than your average hydration supplement.
Our most popular quantity is our 6 bag package which you will get at an unbeatable price of just $28 per bag.
Plus, with a 6 bag supply, you will have more than enough Native Hydrate to use daily without worrying about running out.
Native Hydrate is available in three flavors: Mixed Berry, Tangerine, and Peach Mango, all with naturally sweet and fruity flavors that some people say taste like a refreshing popsicle or sherbet.
Amino acids work to strengthen muscle and nerve function, including those that are essential to bladder control, while supporting optimal hydration with the support of electrolytes.
As a refresher, optimal hydration is key to preventing a concentration of chemicals in the bladder that can cause irritation and trigger bladder leaks, urges, and UTIs.
As we age, our water reserves in the body and kidney function decline, making water alone less effective in supporting healthy hydration. The combination of amino acids and electrolytes have been shown to be the best formula for supporting healthy hydration in adults over the age of 60.
Consistent hydration is linked with minimized fall risk, healthier cardiovascular health, a decrease in inflammation, and minimized signs of aging.
Each bag of Native Hydrate contains 30 servings.
Take one serving 1-3 times daily or as recommended by a healthcare professional.
Many folks notice results in energy levels as early as a few hours after their first use.
But, in order to experience the bladder strengthening properties – as well as balance, soothed inflammation, and cardiovascular support – it is mission critical that you’re getting the proper amount of amino acids and electrolytes in your diet each day.
For this reason, it’s smart to stock up on a larger supply of Native Hydrate so you can experience the full long-term benefits without the risk of running out.
You can expect to receive your order within 7-10 business days.
Yes. Our website is protected by Trust-Guard, an online PCI Compliant Security Scanner software that prohibits security holes from compromising your shopping experience. The Security-Scanned seal is intended to inform shoppers that our business is certified and trusted as safe, responsible, and totally awesome.
Many folks begin to see and feel a difference shortly after their first few uses.
However, we want to make sure there’s absolutely no risk involved when it comes to investing in any of our NativePath products.
That’s why you can try Native Hydrate for a full 365 days and if for any reason you're not completely satisfied, simply contact our Customer Care team to begin the return process. Rest assured, you can complete your order today knowing that you're protected by our risk-free 365-Day Money Back Guarantee.
No. Native Hydrate is only available through this exclusive website.
Due to the limited and tedious sourcing process of high-quality amino acids, our launch discount offer will likely not last long and it can be deactivated without notice at any time. So, if you’re even a little curious about what this unique amino acid + electrolyte formula can do for you, now is the best time to stock up and save big on Native Hydrate while it’s available at our lowest-ever online price.
