Who buys it, and why
Electrolyte drinks refers to beverages and drink mixes that add sodium, potassium and magnesium to water for hydration, from sports drinks such as Gatorade to powders and ready-to-drink brands such as Liquid I.V., LMNT and Prime. People search it to compare brands, sugar content and which to use for workouts, heat, travel or hangovers. In practice, buyers are athletes, gym-goers, people on low-carb diets and everyday consumers drinking them as a daily habit. It is a fast-growing consumable category with recurring purchases, room for new flavours, sugar-free formats and private-label brands.
