Why We Made EirLyte
EirLyte was created with a simple yet powerful goal: to provide a clean, scientifically backed electrolyte blend without the unnecessary sugars, artificial ingredients, or fillers found in traditional sports drinks. We use Natural Irish Mineral Sea Salt as our base, combined with a precise ratio of essential electrolytes, to deliver optimal hydration and performance.
What's in EirLyte?
1. Organic Irish Sea Salt (38%)
EirLyte starts with high-quality Irish sea salt, naturally rich in sodium, chloride, and trace minerals. Sodium is essential for hydration, nerve function, and muscle contractions (Sawka et al., 2007). Unlike refined table salt, our sea salt retains minerals that enhance electrolyte balance and absorption.
Sodium (925 mg per serving): Helps maintain hydration, prevent muscle cramps, and support endurance (Cheuvront & Kenefick, 2014).
Chloride (1450 mg per serving): Works alongside sodium to regulate fluid balance and support digestion (Institute of Medicine, 2005).
2. Potassium Citrate (380 mg per serving)
Potassium is a key component in muscle contraction, nerve signaling, and cardiovascular function. The citrate form enhances absorption and helps maintain acid-base balance in the body (Weaver, 2013). Many people, especially those on whole-food or keto diets, don’t get enough potassium, making supplementation crucial (Maughan & Shirreffs, 2010).
3. Magnesium (58 mg per serving) – Magnesium Malate & Magnesium Citrate
Magnesium is involved in over 300 biochemical reactions, including muscle function, nerve transmission, and energy production (Rude, 1998). The citrate and malate forms are highly bioavailable, ensuring efficient absorption and effectiveness. Deficiency in magnesium is linked to muscle cramps, fatigue, and impaired hydration balance (Maughan et al., 1996).
4. Calcium Carbonate (50 mg per serving)
Calcium plays a key role in muscle contraction, bone health, and electrolyte balance. It complements sodium and potassium in supporting normal physiological function (Institute of Medicine, 2005).
5. Citric Acid
Citric acid enhances mineral solubility and absorption while also improving taste. It can also help reduce the risk of kidney stones by alkalizing urine (Rude, 1998), Citric Acid complements the natural flavours by providing a bright, refreshing tartness that enhances the overall taste profile without overpowering it.
6. Natural Fruit Flavoring & Stevia
We use natural fruit flavoring to create a refreshing taste without artificial additives. Stevia, a plant-based sweetener, keeps EirLyte free of sugar while providing a hint of natural sweetness. Unlike sugar-based hydration drinks, EirLyte won’t cause blood sugar spikes (Shirreffs et al., 2007).
Why EirLyte Works
Hydration & Performance
Hydration isn’t just about drinking water—it’s about electrolyte balance. The American College of Sports Medicine states that proper electrolyte replenishment improves fluid retention and prevents dehydration-related performance drops (Sawka et al., 2007). EirLyte’s carefully designed ratio of sodium, potassium, and magnesium maximizes hydration without unnecessary sugars or fillers.
Bioavailability & Natural Sources
Not all electrolytes are created equal. The forms of minerals in EirLyte—organic sea salt, potassium citrate, and magnesium malate—are highly bioavailable, meaning your body can absorb and use them effectively (Weaver, 2013). Studies show that minerals in a naturally balanced matrix are better absorbed than isolated compounds.
Sugar-Free & Keto-Friendly
Traditional sports drinks are loaded with sugar, which isn’t necessary for effective hydration. Research confirms that electrolyte solutions without sugar work just as well—if not better—than their sugar-containing counterparts for rehydration and recovery (Maughan et al., 1996). EirLyte supports hydration without unnecessary carbs, making it ideal for keto, fasting, and low-carb lifestyles.
Confidence in Every Sip: Informed Sport Certified
EirLyte is Informed Sport certified, meaning every batch is tested for banned substances to ensure it meets the highest quality and safety standards. This certification gives athletes and health-conscious consumers the confidence that EirLyte is clean, safe, and free from contaminants. When you choose EirLyte, you’re choosing a product backed by science and trusted by professionals.
Rigorous Testing
At EirLyte, we believe that transparency and scientific validation are essential to delivering a product you can trust. To ensure the highest standards, every batch undergoes comprehensive testing, including full nutritional analysis, microbiological safety checks, heavy metals screening, pesticide residue testing, and microplastic testing. These tests are performed by accredited third-party laboratories using advanced methods, giving customers confidence that EirLyte is not only effective but also safe, clean, and compliant with the strictest international standards.
The Bottom Line
EirLyte is designed for those who demand more from their hydration. With a research-backed blend of sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium sourced from natural Irish sea salt, EirLyte delivers clean, effective hydration without the junk. Whether you’re an athlete, weekend warrior, or just someone who wants to feel better throughout the day, EirLyte has you covered.
