THORNE - Catalyte - Electrolyte Replenishment and Energy Restoration Supplement* - No Artificial Sweeteners - NSF Certified for Sport- Lemon Lime - 11.01 Oz

Wanted to love it, but the taste is like a chemical creamsicle lol. Gave mine to a friend that doesnt seem to have this issue, as this is non return stuff. It's a great quality electrolyte mix as long as it stays dry. The levels of elements are great and it does it's job well. Thorne stuff is always legit, but the taste...wish it just tasted like salt honestly.

I really like this product. I like my products as pure as possible. I see some people don't like that it doesn't dissolve completely, but I like that they are not adding agents to make it dissolve. I think why it could taste odd to some is that it isn't sweetened. I have another one I use and after a month or so it sticks together from the sugar content. This product does not do that. You know the extra energy you feel is from the product vs sugar content. Yes, A little bit is left undissolved in the last swallow, but that really does not bother me. If you have ever used pure green raw stevia for example, that doesn't dissolve either. The purest of products don't has been my experience. Ordering my 6th tub now. It is my favorite one out there.

The taste is terrible. Couldn’t get past it, so I can’t say much about the effects. Definitely not something I’d buy again

Tastes like lemon lime sports drink. Do I wish they had different flavors? Yes. Yes, there is mineral sediment if you don't like that in your drink don't buy it. I had a severe onset set of fibromyalgia this year and was unable to walk. With the guidance of a functional medicine doctor this was one of the supplements that I was put on. It is the first thing I drink every morning. Stops the leg pains and severe leg cramping and allows me to carry on with my day. This may not be the electrolyte for everyone however I can not live without it. I drink it every morning in 14 to 16 oz of water. A splash of organic orange ginger immune juice switches up the flavor for me on occasion.

Good supplement, lousy taste. Separates quickly.

I have recently been in the hunt for a good electrolyte supplement to help with hydration for workouts and everyday life. I’ve tried some familiar brands that most know such as Liquid IV, Drip Drop, LMNT, BPN, Skratch, NUUN, etc. so i wanted to give Thorne a shot.First impressions of the taste, it is mild and has an odd after taste with somewhat of a chalky feel. It’s not horrible by any means, but usually when drinking something with loads of sodium, i expect to taste the saltiness and this doesn’t have that sensation. Be honest, i probably will finish the bottle but won’t get another.As far as performance goes, there isn’t some kind of huge performance boost that I’ve felt but i will say i do feel more hydrated and haven’t cramped during any HIIT or endurance runs and that’s a win for an electrolyte powder.Recommend you give it a go if you’re also hunting for your new go-to electrolyte powder.

I got this powder as a way to combine my electrolyte and multivitamin supplementation and while the micronutrients fit the bill for me, the essence of the powder is poor.Taste - 4/10. I never had the old formulation but the current formulation is not the best taste. It's like that meme, "We have _____ at home." This is "We have lemon lime flavor at home." It is lemon lime flavored but seems like it is missing some of the robustness. Also, it almost tastes carbonated which was odd at first but I've gotten used to.Mixability - 0/10. This is really a binary for me, either it mixes or it doesn't. I use a motor powered bottle so I know the mixing is consistent with other powders and even if I do three rounds of mixing there is always some unmixed powder at the bottom. It's not significant enough to be a deal breaker for me but at the end of the day, it doesn't mix fully.Formulation - 9/10. This is where this product excels at ultimately might be why I keep purchasing it. I already consume salmon regularly and get plenty of sun. This means typical Vitamin D supplementation, in the 1,000+ IU range can actually lead me to having too much Vitamin D and having negative side effects associated. This not having any Vitamin D in it is perfect for me. It also doesn't have vitamin K but when this is paired with Thorne's Vitamin D/K drops, it's a non-issue. The removal of it from the powder allows me a little bit of flexibility on whether or not I get Vitamin D/K, which I may not need to supplement. Considering a serving is about 5 cents for the drops, it's a no brainer!Where it loses a point is in the potassium amount. The best amount to avoid adverse effects of sodium is to have a 3:1 sodium-to-potassium ratio. This is over 5:1 and would need to add 66 2/3 mg of potassium to reach that ratio. There's an easy fix in the form of a banana with it but at the end of the day this does fall short on the electrolyte replenishing aspect because of that.Summary: Taste is close to good but not quite there. It doesn't mix fully. The formulation is nearly perfect.

Pleasant taste, refreshing. Great for those watching sugar intake and low on the potassium level.
