What is Sodii Electrolyte Hydration Tub and who is it for?
Sodii is an electrolyte powder containing sodium, potassium, and magnesium sourced from Lake Deborah salt in Western Australia. It’s designed for people who want to maintain electrolyte intake throughout the day without added sugars or carbohydrates. Each serve provides 1000mg sodium, 210mg potassium, and 70mg magnesium in a powder that mixes with water.
This makes sense if you’re someone who prefers a low-carbohydrate approach to hydration, whether that’s because you’re following a ketogenic diet, you’re active and want electrolytes without the sugar load of sports drinks, or you simply want a straightforward way to maintain electrolyte intake during your day. The intentionally salty taste reflects the actual mineral content rather than masking it with sweeteners.
Fairfield Nutrition Thoughts
Most people underestimate their sodium needs, especially if they’re active, following a lower-carbohydrate diet, or dealing with periods of increased fluid loss through heat or exercise. Sodii addresses this with a straightforward electrolyte formula that prioritizes the minerals your cells actually need for hydration without the sugar load found in conventional sports drinks.
Why This Formulation / How It Works
Sodii differs from conventional sports drinks by focusing on electrolyte content rather than carbohydrate delivery. Most commercial hydration products contain 20-30g of sugar per serve based on older sports science that emphasized carbohydrate replacement during exercise. Sodii takes a different approach: it provides the key electrolytes (sodium, potassium, magnesium) in meaningful amounts while keeping carbohydrates minimal. This makes it suitable for daily use rather than just during intense exercise, and it fits into lower-carbohydrate dietary approaches without disrupting metabolic goals.
The use of Lake Deborah salt is a quality feature. This ancient lake salt from Western Australia contains not just sodium chloride but a range of trace minerals that come from the natural evaporation of inland lake water over millennia. The formulation is deliberately simple – no artificial sweeteners, colours, or unnecessary additives – which means what you’re getting is primarily the minerals themselves.
Sodium’s Role in Fluid Balance
Sodium is the primary extracellular electrolyte, meaning it’s found in highest concentration in the fluid outside your cells. It creates an osmotic gradient that allows water to move into cells through aquaporin channels in cell membranes. Without adequate sodium, water can pass through your digestive system without being absorbed effectively into tissues. The 1000mg of sodium per serve reflects the amount lost through moderate activity or daily fluid turnover, particularly relevant for people who don’t consume processed foods (which are typically the main dietary source of sodium).
Potassium and Magnesium in Cellular Function
Potassium works in balance with sodium to maintain cellular electrical potential and fluid balance. It’s the primary intracellular electrolyte, concentrated inside cells rather than outside them. The sodium-potassium pump uses ATP to maintain this gradient, which is essential for nerve signaling, muscle contraction, and cellular metabolism. Magnesium serves as a cofactor for over 300 enzymatic reactions, including those involved in ATP production and electrolyte transport across cell membranes. The 210mg potassium and 70mg magnesium in Sodii provide meaningful amounts of these minerals that are often under-consumed in modern diets.
When to Consider This
This electrolyte formula makes sense if you’re:
- Following a lower-carbohydrate or ketogenic diet where electrolyte needs increase due to reduced insulin levels and increased renal sodium excretion.
- Active or training regularly and want electrolyte support without the sugar content of conventional sports drinks.
- In a hot climate or working in conditions where you’re losing fluids through sweat and want to maintain electrolyte intake throughout the day.
- Focusing on whole foods and realizing you’re not getting much sodium from your diet (since you’re not eating processed foods where most dietary sodium comes from).
- Experiencing signs of inadequate electrolyte intake like fatigue, muscle cramps, or headaches, particularly if you drink a lot of water without replacing minerals.
⚠️ Not suitable for: People with kidney disease, those on sodium-restricted diets, or anyone advised by their healthcare provider to limit electrolyte intake. Consult your healthcare professional if you have cardiovascular conditions or are taking medications that affect electrolyte balance.
How to Use
Mix one serve (approximately one scoop) with 500mL to 1L of water, depending on your taste preference and hydration needs. The manufacturer suggests this can be used throughout the day, not just during exercise. Some people prefer a more concentrated mix (less water) for a stronger electrolyte hit, while others dilute it more for a milder taste.
The intentionally salty taste is a feature of the formulation – it reflects the actual mineral content. If you’re new to electrolyte drinks without sweeteners, start with a more diluted mix and adjust to your preference. Many people use this first thing in the morning, during or after exercise, or anytime they’re focusing on maintaining hydration throughout the day.

Common Questions
How is this different from regular sports drinks?
Sodii focuses on electrolyte content with minimal carbohydrates (less than 0.8g per serve), while conventional sports drinks typically contain 20-30g of sugar per serve. This makes Sodii suitable for daily use and compatible with lower-carbohydrate dietary approaches, whereas traditional sports drinks are designed primarily for carbohydrate replacement during intense exercise.
Why is it so salty compared to other electrolyte drinks?
The salty taste reflects the actual mineral content rather than masking it with sweeteners. Each serve contains 1000mg of sodium, which is the amount your body needs for effective hydration. Other electrolyte drinks often use sweeteners and flavourings to hide the mineral taste, but this means you’re typically getting less of the electrolytes you actually need.
Can I use this every day or just during exercise?
Sodii is formulated for daily use, not just during exercise. The electrolyte amounts are appropriate for maintaining daily mineral intake, particularly if you’re active, in a hot climate, following a lower-carbohydrate diet, or eating mostly whole foods (which tend to be naturally lower in sodium than processed foods).
Will this break my fast or affect ketosis?
With less than 0.8g of carbohydrates per serve and negligible calories, Sodii is unlikely to significantly affect ketosis or most fasting protocols. Many people use electrolyte supplementation during fasting to maintain mineral balance, though individual responses can vary.
What makes Lake Deborah salt different from regular salt?
Lake Deborah is an ancient inland lake in Western Australia. The salt comes from natural evaporation over millennia and contains trace minerals alongside sodium chloride. While the primary benefit is still the sodium content, the natural mineral profile provides a broader spectrum of minerals compared to refined table salt.
Warnings & Storage
Do not use if: You have kidney disease, are on a sodium-restricted diet, or have been advised by your healthcare provider to limit sodium or electrolyte intake.
Cautions: Consult your healthcare professional before use if you have cardiovascular conditions, high blood pressure, or are taking medications that affect electrolyte balance (including diuretics, blood pressure medications, or medications affecting kidney function). Excessive electrolyte intake without adequate fluid can lead to imbalances.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep container sealed to prevent moisture absorption.
Always consult your healthcare professional before use if you have any pre-existing conditions or are taking medications.
