Key Ingredients

We only use clinically researched ingredients backed by science. Every formula is crafted with pure, high-quality nutrients at effective doses designed for safety, potency, and real results you can trust.

Sodium

400 mg

Sodium is a key electrolyte that helps regulate fluid balance, supports cellular hydration, and enables the proper flow of nutrients and waste in and out of cells—including brain cells.* It also plays a crucial role in nerve signaling and muscle function.* While many electrolyte formulas contain excessive sodium, which can lead to bloating or imbalance, this formula provides a moderate, effective dose—just enough to support hydration and performance without overwhelming your system.*

Potassium

300 mg

Potassium is an essential electrolyte that helps maintain the body’s fluid and electrical balance, supporting nerve signaling, muscle function, and heart rhythm.* It works closely with sodium to regulate blood pressure especially important during pregnancy to support the mother’s cardiovascular health and reduce the risk of complications.* Potassium also helps balance pH levels and ensures nutrients move properly into cells.* Adequate intake supports overall hydration, energy levels, and healthy development for both mother and baby during pregnancy.*

Magnesium

50 mg

Magnesium is a vital mineral needed by every cell in the body, especially for the brain’s nerve cells to communicate effectively.* It supports the electrical signals that allow neurons to connect and process information.* Often called “the relaxation mineral,” magnesium helps regulate muscle tension, hydration, and energy production.* It also balances stress hormones like adrenaline and helps improve sleep quality.* By promoting calmness and mental focus, magnesium plays a key role in supporting emotional well-being, cognitive function, and overall physical health.*

Vitamin C

90 mg

Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that helps protect cells from damage caused by free radicals and environmental toxins.* It also plays a vital role in enzyme function, acting as a cofactor in the production of neurotransmitters that support mood and brain function.* Additionally, vitamin C is essential for collagen synthesis, which supports healthy skin, gums, joints, and connective tissues.* It also aids in detoxification and strengthens the immune system, making it a key nutrient for overall health and resilience.*

Vitamin B3

16 mg

Niacinamide is a non-flushing, active form of vitamin B3 that plays a crucial role in converting food into cellular energy.* It supports brain function, mood balance, and nervous system health.* Unlike niacin, it doesn’t cause skin flushing, making it well-tolerated.* Niacinamide is easily depleted by alcohol, smoking, and certain medications like hormonal contraceptives.* Deficiency can contribute to memory issues, mood disturbances, irritability, and cognitive decline.* Maintaining healthy B3 levels supports mental clarity, emotional stability, and overall energy metabolism.*

Vitamin B6

4 mg

Vitamin B6, as pyridoxine and pyridoxal-5-phosphate, is essential for at least 100 enzymes that help the brain make key neurotransmitters. It helps the body utilize carbohydrates, fats and amino acids derived from proteins. Vitamin B6 aids the conversion of potentially damaging homocysteine into useful antioxidants. It also promotes relaxation and healthy mood. This formula provides the two chemical forms of B6 that are most fully absorbed and utilized.

Vitamin B12

100 mcg

Vitamin B12 is essential for maintaining the structure and function of the brain, spinal cord, and nerves.* It supports energy production, healthy red blood cells, and the synthesis of neurotransmitters that influence mood and cognition.* This formula uses methylcobalamin (MeB12), the bioactive form of B12 that’s readily absorbed and used by the body—unlike the more common cyanocobalamin, which contains trace amounts of cyanide.* Adequate B12 levels are associated with improved mood, mental clarity, memory, and emotional balance.*

Natural Raspberry Flavor

Organic

This formula is naturally flavored with raspberry and beet juice powder for a light, fruity taste.* It’s sweetened with allulose—a low-calorie natural sugar—and stevia leaf extract, a plant-based sweetener, to deliver clean sweetness without added sugar or artificial ingredients.* This smart blend supports hydration with no crash or guilt, making it a great choice for daily wellness.*

Smart Minerals for Sharp Minds

Your Brain Needs Electrolytes, Not Just Water

Your brain doesn’t just run on water—it runs on electricity.

Electrolytes like sodium, potassium, and magnesium act as conductors, helping your brain send signals, maintain fluid balance, and stay sharp under stress.*

Without them, hydration falls short—and so does your focus.*

Smart Electrolytes delivers the right minerals in the right amounts to keep your brain powered and performing.*

Daniel G. Amen, MD, founder of BrainMD and Amen Clinics

"Even mild dehydration can shrink your brain volume and impair focus. Smart Electrolytes is designed to quickly restore hydration where it matters most—your brain—without the sugar, dyes, or additives found in most formulas."

"Your brain is approximately 75% water, but it needs more than water to function well—it needs electrolytes. Smart Electrolytes delivers them in the precise ratio your brain and body require, plus essential vitamins to support cellular energy and recovery."

"Most electrolyte drinks are made for athletes’ muscles—Smart Electrolytes is made for your brain. It rehydrates at the cellular level and fuels cognitive clarity, making it ideal for busy professionals, travelers, and anyone seeking peak mental performance."

"Hydration is one of the simplest, most overlooked ways to improve mental performance. The targeted electrolyte balance in Smart Electrolytes helps keep your mind sharp, energy steady, and body functioning at its best."
