Rayvi hydration powders provide potassium via coconut powder and potassium citrate. One scoop of Rayvi will get you over 400 mg of potassium! That’s more than a whole banana. General guidelines for recommended daily potassium intake is ~2600-3400 mg/day. You’re off to a dang good start with Rayvi! Potassium supports blood sugar management and insulin sensitivity (better potassium levels = better carbohydrate tolerance), it regulates blood pressure, allows water into your cells, supports cellular thyroid hormone use, maintains fluid balance, supports gut motility and bowels, supports heart health in many ways, necessary for energy production. Research shows associations with type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome are more pronounced in African Americans and Koreans with low potassium. This is a mineral you simply can’t skip.

The magnesium in Rayvi hydration powders is found in the coconut water and magnesium malate. This is an extremely well absorbed form of magnesium (and doesn't have the digestive effect of many other forms). Magnesium is critical for insulin sensitivity, it’s required to make energy, supports digestion, relaxes the nervous system, it’s used in detoxification processes, it’s essential for healthy cholesterol, supports thyroid function and supports hormone production. Clearly magnesium is important as that’s the short version of the function list. Unfortunately, magnesium is quite easily depleted with stress so most people today benefit from giving this mineral extra TLC.

I know what you’re thinking. Sodium? Isn’t this a no no? While excessive sodium from processed food is not recommended, we still need sodium as it’s an essential mineral. In fact, research in 2011 showed significant health issues can arise with too little sodium intake as well. We need sodium for insulin sensitivity, making stomach acid, maintaining fluid balance, supporting blood sugar and regulating blood pressure and heart health. Modern diets higher in salt are not problematic when other minerals like calcium, magnesium and potassium are optimal. Unlike regular table salt which is 100% sodium chloride, Rayvi uses sea salt for over 100 mg of a natural sodium source paired with other trace minerals.}

Between coconut water powder, acerola fruit, and the other real food, nutrient rich ingredients, Rayvi is packing a punch with minerals, antioxidants and vitamin C. The immune boosting benefits of antioxidants and vitamin C have been shown time and time again!
