What is Classic Yellow electrolyte powder?
Classic Yellow is a zero-sugar electrolyte drink mix from Active Essentials. The lemon lime flavor is reminiscent of the classic yellow sports drink, but it is made with real fruit and minerals instead of dyes, fillers or added sugar. It replaces the sodium, potassium and magnesium you lose when you sweat. One jar holds 30 servings.

The six ingredients
- Freeze-dried lemon juice powder: bright citrus flavor and vitamin C.
- Unrefined sea salt: supplies sodium, the electrolyte you lose most in sweat.
- Freeze-dried lime juice powder: rounds out the lemon lime flavor.
- Magnesium glycinate: highly bioavailable and has reduced GI effects.
- Potassium chloride: supplies potassium.
- Stevia leaf extract: a small amount of plant-based sweetness, with no sugar.
That is the whole list. No dyes, no fillers, no added sugar.
Who Classic Yellow is for
Classic Yellow is for people who already take electrolytes regularly and are looking for a clean, refreshing change. It is made for people who sweat: workouts longer than an hour, training in heat and humidity, and long runs and rides. With 750 mg of sodium per scoop, it is stronger than a lightly flavored water and is meant to replace real sweat losses.
How to use it
Add one scoop (6 g) to 16 to 20 oz of water, depending on your desired taste, and shake to mix. Drink it before, during or after exercise, on hot days, or any time you have been sweating heavily.
