We Don't Hide From Our Ingredients!
Frequently Asked Questions
How do you pronounce SALTR?
Great question! It is pronounced like the name "Walter". it is made using Nordic Runic characters representing "ancestral", "family", "sea". It is also the Viking name for "salt"...inspired by the Norwegian orgin of our first ingredient and the heritage of our co-founders Scott and Amy.
How much water do I use?
Everyone has a different palette when it comes to flavor and sweetness. The recommended amount water ranges from 16-20 oz. We love the taste at about 20oz cold water per serving (Remember, each stick contains 1-2 servings, depending on the flavor).
You can create your own taste profile by how much you sprinkle - the goal is to get electrolyte minerals and water in to your body for better hydration.
For our SALTED CARAMEL COFFEE, one packet equals one serving. Feel free to add or subtract the amount of powder you use based on your hydration needs. You may wish to add or subtract water also based on the potency of taste preferences.
Why do some of your flavors have 2 servings per stick pack?
We designed our packets to give you flexibility—some people prefer a lighter mix, while others use a full packet for larger water volumes. This allows you to customize your hydration.
WE BELIEVE IN TRANSPARANCY, here's more: The manufacturing of a stick pack is very expensive. We also use a more premium sea salt than other brands (over 20 times more expensive than basic table salt/sodium chloride). By putting 2 servings in the TART LIME, GRAPEFRUIT and UNFLAVORED, we were able to avoid using fillers and stay price competitive with cleaner ingredients per serving versus other major brands on the market.
As we grow, we will have more options for single-servings (new equipment options) and bulk jars with a scoop. We will also benefit from volume pricing as our manufacturing grows to the levels of the single-serving brands.
If you want to take SALTR on the go, fold the packet over twice and tuck it into a pocket or your wallet. It says perfectly sealed and can stay with you when you're on the go.
Where do you source your salt?
We're very proud of what should be the key ingredient in any electrolyte mix. Our salt is brought to us all the way from the pure remote waterways off the island of Gossen, Norway. Founded in Norway by an American woman passionate about salt, she and her team evaporate and hand-harvest the sea salt flakes from the cold Norwegian Sea.
When is the best time to drink SALTR?
Some people like to introduce electrolytes during or after a workout or while fasting. Sometimes you just need to introduce electrolytes throughout the day while on a low-carb or keto diet. Sometimes you may just want a healthy tasty drink and SALTR can help quench those cravings for you. Take them as needed. All of our products are zero calories and sugar free.
How are your natural flavors made?
Our natural flavors are created by combining amino acids that already exist in nature. These amino acids are arranged in the same way they occur in real foods, which allows the flavor to naturally mirror ingredients like grapefruit, tart lime or caramel—without using artificial flavors, synthetic chemicals, or added sugars.
The result is a clean, food-based flavor that delivers great taste while staying true to our commitment to simple, thoughtfully sourced ingredients.
What is the difference between SALTR'S UNFLAVORED STICK PACKS and ELECTROLYTE+ MINERAL SEA SALT?
Our ELECTROLYTE+ products are made with magnesium malate and potassium chloride, in lower quantities of magnesium and potassium compared to the amount of magnesium and potassium in higher quantities from the UNFLAVORED stick packs using magnesium glycinate and potassium gluconate.
ELECTROLYTE+ FLAKE MINERAL SEA SALT: 300mg sodium, 17mg Magnesium, 34mg Potassium per serving
UNFLAVORED STICK PACK: 360mg sodium, 50mg Magnesium, 100mg Potassium
Both products contain clean Norwegian Sea Salt, with magnesium and potassium. The amounts and source of those minerals vary between the two product offerings.
Do SALTR electrolytes work with fasting or ketosis?
Our electrolytes are built around exceptionally clean Norwegian sea salt and highly bioavailable forms of magnesium glycinate and potassium gluconate, selected to support effective hydration and mineral absorption. These foundational ingredients are the same across our lineup.
Fasting and ketosis, however, are highly personal and can vary based on individual goals and protocols. For those following a strict fast or clean hydration routine, we recommend choosing one of our unflavored electrolyte options, which contain only minerals and no additional components.
Our flavored varieties include very small amounts of natural flavor components made with amino acids and modified tapioca starch for mixability. While suitable for everyday hydration, individuals seeking the most minimal approach may prefer unflavored options.
Best choices for strict fasting or ketosis:
Has the freeze dried coffee used in your SALTED CARAMEL COFFEE been tested for mold and lead?
Great news, third party lab testing shows undetectable levels of mold and lead in our SALTED CARAMEL COFFEE.
Has SALTR tested for microplastics?
We believe in transparency and don’t hide behind generic statements about third party lab testing. Most companies won’t even test their salts because what they don’t know can’t hurt them.
We are anxiously awaiting results of our third party testing. Please check back mid May. Until then, here are the results on third party testing of our foundational first ingredient: Norwegian Sea Salt.
To quote an article in MEDIUM, "Microplastics— Found in 90% of global salt products at 7–174 particles per kilogram⁸⁻⁹."
Third party testing results on Norwegian Sea Salt reported results of only 3 particles per kilogram. This is significantly lower than over 90% of globally sourced sea salt.
To better understand what was present in our sea salt, testing was conducted for approximately 20 different polymer types.
Of the 20 polymers tested, only one naturally occurring and man-made polymer type was detected at a trace amount. Notably, higher levels of this polymer are commonly found in tap water.
Testing results will vary from batch to batch, and from season to season as the sea and its currents are forever changing — literally as the wind blows.
Natural and man-made polymers are now present throughout the environment, including air, water, and food systems.
While it is not realistic for any natural evaporated sea salt to be completely free from environmental impact, microplastic and heavy metal testing confirms that our salt is exceptionally cleaner by comparison to other global brands and aligns with our standards for purity, transparency, and responsible sourcing.
Do any of your products contain maltodextrin?
At SALTR, our mission is to create products with the cleanest, most thoughtfully sourced ingredients possible—without shortcuts or unnecessary additives.
While food manufacturing has real-world limitations, certain components such as maltodextrin may be used in trace amounts as functional aids in the production of natural flavorings, serving as flow and drying agents rather than as a primary ingredient like a filler. Flavored SALTR ELECTROLYTES contain less than 1 gram per serving.
- FRUIT FLAVORS (TART LIME/GRAPEFRUIT) 0.413g
- SALTED CARAMEL COFFEE 0.260g
- UNFLAVORED 0g
- ELECTROLYTE+ MINERAL SALT 0g
We prioritize transparency, intentional formulation, and minimizing anything that does not directly support quality, stability, and performance.
Our UNFLAVORED stick packs and our ELECTROLYTE+ products DO NOT contain any maltodextrin, only clean Norwegian Sea Salt, Magnesium and Potassium. If you have concerns about maltodextrin, even in trace amounts, we proudly recommend you try these options.
All our products are made with one of the cleanest sea salts on the planet. If you are concerned about heavy metals, our third party testing came back undetectable for lead.
How is your citric acid different?
We source our citric acid from real fruit like citrus, dates and pomegranates rather than gmo corn, high fructose corn syrups, and industrial sugar byproducts.
If you have concerns about how industrial citric acid is made, we have third party lab testing to confirm that our products are UNDETECTABLE FOR MOLD.
If you prefer products with no citric acid, please try our Salted Caramel Coffee, Unflavored or our Electrolyte+ Flake Sea Salt.
How are your minerals different?
FLAVORED and UNFLAVORED STICK PACKS: Our flavored and unflavored stick packs are made with Norwegian sea salt, potassium gluconate and magnesium glycinate. These are more bioavailable than most other forms and easier on digestion.
ELECTROLYTE+ MINERAL SEA SALT: Our FLAKE version of our mineral sea salt is made with Norwegian sea salt, and supportive levels of magnesium malate (17mg) and potassium chloride (34mg).
When will SALTR products be available in jars?
SALTR officially launched in November 2025, and we share your interest in offering jars of our flavored electrolytes as we grow. Our current plan is to introduce them sometime in 2026. We do have a refill pouch and a 1# jug of our ELECTROLYTE+ Flake Sea Salt available.
Stay tuned!
