Product details
Where this label sits
Dr. Berg Electrolyte Powder is one of the hydration mixes in the Scoop Sense database. Every active ingredient on the panel is listed with its own dose — nothing is hidden inside a blend total. It runs 50 servings per container at the full labeled serving. Everything on this page comes from the manufacturer's supplement facts panel as of July 2026 — never from the marketing page.
Key ingredients & studied doses
- Potassium (citrate) · 1000 mg. A high potassium dose (21% DV) studied for its role in normal muscle contraction and fluid balance.
- Magnesium (citrate) · 120 mg. Magnesium supports normal energy metabolism and muscle relaxation.
- Sodium (pink Himalayan salt) · 40 mg. A light sodium dose relative to most electrolyte mixes.
- Chloride (pink Himalayan salt) · 60 mg. Chloride works with sodium to help maintain normal fluid balance.
Flavors & sweetener
Raspberry & Lemon among nine flavors; sweetened with stevia leaf extract, no added sugar or maltodextrin.
Who it's best for
Flavour and light top-ups rather than replacing a real sweat loss — the sodium here is well under the amount hydration research works with. Derived from the label figures above — not medical advice.
How we log this label
Every entry is built the same way: we read the current supplement facts panel, log each disclosed dose, compare it against the amounts used in published research, flag proprietary blends, and state the cautions plainly. The full methodology explains each step.
This label against the research
How we evaluate labelsEach bar shows the amount commonly used in published human research, and where this label's dose falls against it. Research amounts are context, not a recommendation — they are not doses, and nothing here is medical advice.

Sodium per litre85 mg
28% of the low end of the studied range0studied range 300 mg–700 mg2000 mg
40 mg per serving mixed into 473 ml is about 85 mg per litre. Sports-nutrition guidance puts sodium somewhere between about 230 and 1100 mg per litre of fluid for sustained sweating, depending on which body is writing — 300–700 mg per litre sits inside every version of it. Higher-sodium mixes are built for heavy sweat losses, not for casual sipping.

Common questions about Dr. Berg Electrolyte Powder
How much sodium is in Dr. Berg Electrolyte Powder?
40 mg per serving, with no sugar. Sodium is the main electrolyte lost in sweat, but needs vary widely with sweat rate and diet — and daily sodium from food counts toward the same total.
Does Dr. Berg Electrolyte Powder disclose every dose?
Yes — the label lists an individual amount for each ingredient, with no proprietary blends. That is what the "label fully disclosed" tag on Scoop Sense means, and it is what lets each dose be compared against the amounts used in published research.
