Addendum: I believe the basis for electrolytes is salt and water; the sugar is there for taste. You will find the WHO recipe has a similar Gatorade kind of taste. That’s the sugar and salt flavors mixed. Perhaps the sugar changes the water polarity? But you can do what ever you want after 1L of water + 1/2 tsp salt and some sort of sugars. 1/8 tsp (pinch) baking soda is another popular addition. > An electrolyte is a medium containing ions that are electrically conductive through the movement of those ions, but not conducting electrons. This includes most soluble salts, acids, and bases dissolved in a polar solvent, such as water.[0] [0] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrolyte |
