## Important Consideration - **MUST READ** {#important-consideration-must-read}
**THE BELOW IS FOR AVOIDING DEHYDRATION OR VERY MILD DEHYDRATION**
**THIS IS NOT GOING TO HELP WITH MODERATE TO SEVERE DEHYDRATION**
**IF YOU'RE CONCERNED SEEK PROPER MEDICAL CARE**
## Critical Notes and Information {#critical-notes-and-information}
- You **MUST** include a glucose (sugar) source for proper uptake of water and electrolytes (salts primarily)
or the solution will be non-effective.
- Potassium is an important electrolyte, not just sodium (salt).
If possible, include a source of potassium as part of the recipe.
See the ASU recipes for examples of getting potassium.
- Potassium can be skipped but a food source for replenishing potassium is important if more than mild dehydration occurs.
- If using coconut water, make sure it's unflavored, unsweetened, etc. I use Vita Coco Coconut water 'pressed coconut'
- Use fresh fruit(s) for best effects ; juices tend to be processed heavily and may not have a good level of
citric acid present which is part of the WHO recommendations for a hydration drink ingredient
## Salt Source {#salt-source}
- Assume 'salt' means one of the following
- Himalayan pink salt
- Sea salt
- Kosher, iodized salt
- Himalayan pink salt is the least processed
followed by sea salt
followed by standard table salt (get kosher, iodized salt if going with standard salt)
- Sodium levels for the above salts are about equal
and the crystal size adds the most variability to sodium level obtained
(bigger crystal == less sodium)
- Practically all 3 forms of salt can be swapped freely
## KemoNine Recipes {#kemonine-recipes}
### Lime Coconut Agave {#lime-coconut-agave}
Tastes like a mildly salty lime drink. Super refreshing and tastes good barely chilled.
- 3 limes, juiced
- 1 cup water
- 2 cups coconut water (or enough to make it to 20oz) ; see above for brand, additional info
- 2 tbsp agave nectar, dark
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
### Lemon Avave {#lemon-avave}
Tastes vaguely like lemon/lime gatoraide but far less intense and easy to sip.
Lacks the 'gross' factor of Gatoraide/Poweraide
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 cups water
- 2 tsp agave nectar, light
- 1/4 tsp himalayan pink salt
