I just found out that the electrolyte supplements I rely on every day to remain upright are likely to become unavailable in the near future.

It took me the better part of a year to dial in a mix that gave me back some function. That the whims of capitalism are taking that sucks.

If you're a #pots / #longcovid sufferer who uses such things, I'd welcome suggestions for an alternative.

Double points for not containing sugar, tasting like a (further) punishment, or not costing an arm and a leg.

@RussSharek i can’t do artificial sweeteners, so the only sugar free electrolyte mix i can stomach is skratchlabs.com/products/unswe? — salted margarita is inexplicably better than lemon lime for two flavors you’d expect to be nearly identical. lemon lime isn’t horrible though it’s just weirdly bland?

we get both that and their sugar containing option (having a little sugar *does* help you absorb the water faster in emergencies, though of course it can cause other issues) which has a number of good flavors but currently the house favorite is POG
