This stuff works GREAT!!
KetoAide homemade
What ābrandā of pharmacy was this? Chain or indie? This would be MUCH easier for me to carry on the truck than the glass bottles (although they ARE cheap). But convenience has a price!
Thanks for your reply. Iāll check out my local indie pharmacy and hit Amazon if they donāt have it.
first attempt! i donāt like gatorade or electrolyte water (overbearing taste). this was mildly salty & hopefully will be even better after being in fridge.
40oz water
1/2 t pink salt
1T magnesium citrate
iāll keep ya posted on any results, which i should notice to a greater degree bc iām fasting.
thanks for the post & explanation in the thread!
gonnna start taking this for first time. i get incredibly painful leg cramps (beyond charley horse) that no amount of stretching relieves when they strike. #hopeful
plus my mum has been telling me to take calcium ānow that youāre olderā what in the world?! older?! LOL
Um, Calcium supplementation doesnāt acutally strengthen bones, seems itās more about weight bearing excercise and protein (which is a major component of bone).
If you do supplement, or have a lot in your diet, make sure you get enough Vitamin K (especially K2-4) so it ends up in the bone and not the arteries.
Weight-bearing exercise will keep your bones strong; calcium wonāt. Stop taking that calcium supplement.
@Stef & @CandyLindTX Iām not really taking it in regards to my bones but rather leg cramps, and as on oft-neglected mineral in general, more in line with what @Brenda stated earlier. I was just making a joke about what my mum said. Iām aware of the value of weight bearing exercise for bone strength & do some of that when Iām on my gym game, but Iām not currently doing any on a regular basis. I donāt have a lot of calcium in my diet and Iām only taking half the dosage on the bottle. Thanks for lookinā out for me, ladies!
I have always put mine in the fridge, because of that warning. I didnāt like the grape, the citrus flavor is just refreshing. I also have cherry available if I want variety. Iāve had citrus flavor from Target and Kroger stores, I think they are made in the same facilities, taste is the same.
I donāt always make up ketoaide, I just take a couple of swigs from the bottleI need more mag. My husband wouldnāt leave the bathroom if he consumed an equal amount of mag. LOL
I just joined the ketoade train, making mine from Fred Meyer/Kroger Potassium Citrate
How soon have people started noticing a difference once consuming it?
I swear I felt better after one serving of it, but Iām also thinking that may be placebo effect
I donāt doubt that one bottle made you feel better. If I donāt drink a bottle of it during my hour and a half at the gym I feel depleted.
I dunno, I seem to be craving it nowā¦along with my broth. Just taking it slow due to the side effects of too much magnesium citrate.
I am SOOOO grateful for this forum! I am about 1 month into my keto journey and this past week Iāve been feeling sluggish, foggy brained and heavy lidded. All signs of dehydration yet I religiously drink lots of water throughout the day. Came on here to do some searching and the KetoAde to the rescue along with all the replies about magnesium supplementation. Today I added this in and Iām feeling 1000X better! Like @phoneboy mentioned, maybe itās placebo effect or maybe itās instant, but Iām whatever it is, I dig it! Keto on everyone!
MEGA NSV: One of my nine-year-olds just asked me to make ketoaide for the house!!
How Iāve been making theirs: one gallon of Kool aid made with stevia, 1/2 tbs magnesium sulfate ( all I have in the house.) Theyāve been eating this WOE with us( loosely, though) so I began making this for them. Iāve noticed dark circles around the eyes which I attribute to lack of vitamins, and Iām hoping an extra multi vitamin will help.
Iām finally taking your advice to add this despite my hesitation to supplement with Calcium (I think I read some where on Dr Fungās blog not to). But after a year of experimenting with salt, I am not getting relief.
Where can you buy this in Canada thatās not amazon?
Hello everyone!! Newbie here with a math question (FYI I am absolutely terrible at math!!) I am thinking of making this by the gallon to store in my fridge. Would anyone be able to supply the amounts needed to make this? I have the ingredients and would appreciate the help.
