LMNT

LMNT is by far the best electrolyte supplementation. They make grab and go electrolyte replacement with no sugar, gluten, fillers, artificial ingredients, and it’s paleo friendly.

LMNT comes in boxes of 30, there is free shipping on all orders, and now, all orders will get a FREE 8-pack which has all the flavors of LMNT! To get your free packet, go to drinklmnt.com/wellfed and make sure to use the code WELLFED for your free sample 8-pack.

BiOptimizers

I personally take a compound magnesium supplement ever night before bed, specifically Magnesium Breakthrough by BiOptimizers. It has 7 unique forms of magnesium, and getting a variety will help you experience its calming, sleep-enhancing effects.
