Original Note:
Prime Hydration does contain electrolytes, however, the electrolyte balance is not efficacious. During exercise, it's mainly Sodium that's lost by a factor of 3-4x more than Potassium. Prime contains large amounts of potassium and a small amount of sodium. This can harm health. https://www.trailrunnermag.com/nutrition/race-day-nutrition-nutrition/the-runners-complete-guide-to-electrolytes
