She's Thirsty Coconut Water Electrolyte Drink Mix
Staying hydrated takes on a different urgency once you're feeding a baby around the clock, and plain water doesn't always cut it. Breastfeeding increases fluid needs on top of everyday requirements, and it's easy to end a long day realising you've barely had a proper drink between feeds, nappy changes and everything else on the list. She's Thirsty by Legendairy Milk is a coconut water based electrolyte drink mix, caffeine-free with no added sugar, built to replace lost fluids and electrolytes without the sugar load of a typical sports drink.
What's Inside
Each stick pack provides 400 mg potassium, 150 mg sodium, 70 mg magnesium and 3 mg zinc, alongside 200 mg Vitamin C, 5 mcg Vitamin B12 and 0.7 mg iron, in a coconut water base. Legendairy Milk states the formula provides twice the electrolytes of leading sports drinks, and at just 20 calories, 5 g of total carbohydrate and 3 g of sugar per pack, from the coconut water itself rather than added sugar, it's a fairly light way to rehydrate. It's sweetened further with stevia and monk fruit, and coloured naturally with beet root and beta-carotene rather than artificial dyes. Sodium, potassium and magnesium are the three electrolytes most commonly lost through sweat, and replacing them alongside water rather than water alone is generally more effective for rehydration, which is the basic idea behind any electrolyte mix, coconut water based or otherwise.
How to Use It
To use, add 1 stick pack to 16 fl oz of water and mix thoroughly. It works well after a workout, through a hot day, or simply on days when you're struggling to keep up with your fluid intake between feeds. The watermelon flavour here is one of a couple of options in the range, so if it's not to your taste, a different flavour may suit better.
Good to Know Before You Start
Keep out of reach of children. Hypersensitivity, such as allergy, may occur, in which case discontinue use, and don't use if the safety seal is broken or missing. Store in a cool, dry place.
