APEX PWR | Supplement Spotlight
Thorne just added three flavors to Daily Electrolytes at once: Blackberry, Strawberry Lemonade, and Grapefruit. That is a bigger release than the usual one-off, and it is worth two minutes of your attention for a reason that has nothing to do with novelty.
Flavor fatigue is the most common reason a hydration habit quietly dies. People buy a box, drink it faithfully for three weeks, get tired of the taste, and the box migrates to the back of the pantry. Three new options in a formula you already trust is the cheapest possible fix for that problem.
And if you have been paying retail for Thorne, the more useful piece of information is that you do not have to. Ordering through the APEX PWR partner page gets you 25% off for life on the entire Thorne catalog, these flavors included. You do not need to be a member, a patient, or an Oregon resident.
The darker, rounder option of the three. Less citrus bite, which tends to suit people who find tart mixes hard to drink in volume.
The familiar one, and the safest pick for kids and youth athletes who are suspicious of anything that tastes like a supplement.
The most adult of the three. Bitter-forward citrus rather than sweet, which is the profile people usually want during hard sessions.
All three are available on their own in a full 30-count box. Thorne also released a Variety Pack built around the launch: 30 stick packs total, 10 each of Blackberry, Strawberry Lemonade, and Grapefruit. If you have never tried the product, that is the sensible entry point. Flavor preference in this category is genuinely personal, and a box of 30 you dislike is a box of 30 you will not drink.
With the additions, the full Daily Electrolytes lineup is now Blackberry, Strawberry Lemonade, Grapefruit, Watermelon, and Mango Limeade, plus the Variety Pack. Every one of them is covered by the 25% lifetime discount through our partner page.
All three new flavors carry the identical electrolyte profile. Nothing about the formula changed. You are choosing a taste, not a performance tier.
The electrolyte aisle has become genuinely difficult to navigate. Every brand claims to be clean, science-backed, and athlete-approved. The only way through is to read the panel, so here is the panel.
| Per Stick Pack | Amount |
|---|---|
| Sodium | 480 mg |
| Potassium | 99 mg |
| Magnesium | 40 mg |
| Sugar | 0 g |
| Stick pack size | 0.16 oz (4.45 g) |
| Sticks per box | 30 |
Calcium and chloride are in the formula as well, so you are replacing five electrolytes rather than one or two. Sodium and chloride do the heavy lifting on fluid balance, potassium and magnesium support muscle function, and calcium contributes to signaling. Losing all five in sweat and replacing only sodium is a common gap in cheaper products.
At 480 mg of sodium, this sits deliberately in the middle of the category. Dedicated endurance formulas often push past 1,000 mg per serving, which is appropriate for a four-hour ride in the heat and excessive for a Tuesday. General wellness products often land under 300 mg, which will not touch a hard session. The middle is the right place for something you are meant to use daily.
Three things separate this formula from most of what sits next to it on the shelf.
Rather than assembling the mineral profile entirely from isolated synthetic salts, Thorne draws electrolytes from naturally occurring Himalayan pink salt. Your body does not read marketing copy, but sourcing quality tends to correlate with the rest of a manufacturer's decisions.
Reb M is a stevia-derived sweetener, and it is the reason the product lands at zero grams of sugar without the metallic finish older stevia extracts were known for. If you are drinking one or two of these a day through a hot training block, the calories from a sugared alternative add up faster than most people expect.
No synthetic dyes. This is a small thing that becomes a large thing when the person drinking it is twelve years old and drinks it four times a week through a tournament season.
Daily Electrolytes is NSF Certified for Sport. Every batch is tested for compliance with label claims and screened for the absence of nearly 300 substances banned by major athletic organizations.
That certification is not a marketing badge. For any athlete subject to testing at the high school, collegiate, or professional level, NSF Certified for Sport is the standard that actually protects them, because the supplement industry is not pre-approved by the FDA and contamination is a documented, ongoing problem. If you want the longer explanation, we wrote one: NSF Certified for Sport, what the label means for your athlete.

A tub of powder with a scoop lives on a counter. It works beautifully at home and it is useless everywhere else, which is where most people spend their day. A stick pack goes in a laptop bag, a glove box, a carry-on, a hotel room, or the side pocket of a soccer bag. Thirty per box means you can seed all of those places at once and stop thinking about it.
For the people we work with across the Portland metro, that shows up in three specific places:
Protein and creatine also come in travel packets, so the same logic extends to the rest of the stack. All of it is covered by the same 25% lifetime discount through our partner page.
We covered the travel angle in more depth here: Thorne Daily Electrolytes, travel-friendly hydration that works.
An honest answer, because not everyone needs an electrolyte supplement.
If you work a desk job, train three times a week in an air-conditioned room, and drink water through the day, plain water and a balanced diet will cover you. You do not need this.
It earns its place when sweat losses are real and repeated. Long or hot training sessions. Two-a-days. Endurance work past an hour. Hyrox and similar formats. Hot yoga. Manual outdoor work in summer. Youth athletes playing multiple games in a day. Travel days. And for a smaller group, people who simply sweat heavily and salt-crust their shirts, which is a real individual difference rather than a personality trait.
If you are unsure which category you fall into, that is a reasonable thing to ask a coach or one of our physical therapists about rather than guessing from an ad.
