Kurt, there has been previous discussion on this, but as the archives, I
think, are down, here is what I have stored. There may be more info that
other people have.

Electrolyte Drink
Many Pedialyte and Electrolyte drinks are made with dextrose. Unfortunately,
it is difficult to be sure if the dextrose is unadulterated (see Dextrose).
It is easy to make your own.
Electrolyte drink
1 quart boiled water
2 tbsp. honey
1/4 tsp. of salt
1/4 tsp.baking soda
Can be kept in refrigerator for 24 hours, and then a new batch should be
made
Are there any gatorade alternatives that help in absorption of CS for
those that are allergic to dyes and sugars?
-------------------------
I use Fulvic Acid Mineral Complex from Vital Earth. The fulvic acid is
supposed to make all the nutrients more absorbable, as well as escort wastes
more efficiently out of the body.

coconut water is the best but its $$$$
Type in { homemade gatorade } in you favorite search engine to see all
the different recipes that are out there.

Subject: CS>Gatorade Alternatives
Hi all.
With all the talk here about the possible benefits of using Gatorade or
Pedialyte with EIS and the many concerns expressed about Gatorade and
Pedialyte and their ingredients I thought I would post this offering of
homemade alternatives to Gatorade or Pedialyte. I originally posted this on
the SilverPets list: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SilverPets/
I may have posted it here too but since the archives are down I can't be
sure.
In any event here it is again for anyone interested in alternatives to
commercial electrolyte products.
Here are a few formulas for electrolyte solutions you can make at home.
The only one which could be said to be sugar free is the starch based
one.
This first one can be used for enemas and orally. Some of the others may
be usable as enemas as well but this is the only one I'm sure of. It is
advisable to warm to body temperature prior to use.
Boil and cool 4 cups water (Actually I prefer to start with distilled
water)
It will be easier to completely dissolve the dry ingredients if one
starts
with warm water.
Add--------- 1/2-teaspoon baking soda
------------- 1/2-teaspoon salt
------------- 3 Tablespoons sugar
Be sure all of the dry ingredients are fully dissolved and mixed.
Here are a couple more options for homemade electrolyte solutions.
Starch-based Solution
1 quart clean (preferably distilled) water
½ teaspoon table salt
2 oz. (about 1 cup) baby rice cereal
Sugar-based solution
1 quart clean water
½ teaspoon table salt
8 teaspoons sugar
And a couple more.
This recipe may be used in place of an over-the-counter product
(Pedialyte),
IF followed EXACTLY:
3 Tablespoons of Sugar
3/4 teaspoon of Salt
1 Teaspoon of Baking Soda
1 Cup of Orange Juice (I don't use this)
1 Quart of Water.
Pour together and shake well, being certain that all dry ingredients are
fully
dissolved and mixed. (Keep refrigerated and and warm to body temperature
before use and use within 48 hours).
2 quarts water
1-teaspoon baking soda
1-teaspoon salt
7 Tablespoons sugar
1 packet Sugar-Free Kool-Aid
1/2-teaspoon salt substitute
The salt substitute and Kool-Aid are optional. As with the others, store
in the refrigerator and warm to body temperature just prior to use.
Remember too that EIS when mixed with salt produces silver chloride
which is known to be much less effective than genuine ionic silver. However
if
one is making up one's own homemade electrolyte solution one is free to vary
it to suit the need of the moment.

============
Last time I checked pedialyte it contained aspartame
Since Gatorade is an electrolyte solution (plus sugars, flavorings,
chemicals, etc.), I was wondering whether Pedialyte infant electrolyte
solution could be used instead. I would not want to drink Gatorade because
of the immune depressing effect of the sugar.
The mineral solution you suggested--where do you get it?

Is there an alternative to using Gatorade's to get electrolytes with the CS?
Thank You
KV
