This article shows how to whip up a simple oral rehydration solution using water, salt, and sugar. It notes that homemade mixes won’t exactly match Pedialyte’s proprietary formula and recommends following recipes approved by healthcare professionals.

• Basic homemade oral rehydration recipe: 1 liter water, 1/2 tsp salt, 6 tsp sugar (sometimes a dash of baking soda), but it won't match Pedialyte's exact proprietary formula.
• Precision matters—too little salt is ineffective and too much can worsen dehydration, since small changes shift the drink's osmolality.
• Research (published in Nutrients) shows brand, storage, and temperature all affect the osmolality of commercial oral rehydration solutions.
• Use only healthcare-approved recipes (like Takeda Pharmaceuticals' booklet for short-bowel syndrome patients), sterile tools, and label homemade batches with date and contents.

This article provides detailed recipes for making homemade electrolyte drinks, including specific measurements for sodium, potassium, and magnesium. It outlines how to prepare four popular flavors and offers tips for bulk preparation or measuring without a scale.

• Per serving: 2,500 mg sodium chloride, 385 mg potassium chloride, and 390 mg magnesium malate (or 265 mg di-magnesium malate) replicate LMNT's electrolyte ratio for a fraction of the cost.
• Scaling to 30 servings needs 75 g sodium chloride, 11.5 g potassium chloride, and 11.7 g magnesium malate, making bulk mixing practical.
• Four flavor variants (Citrus, Raspberry, Orange, Watermelon) use the same base electrolyte mix plus fresh juice or fruit.
• A kitchen scale gives the most accurate results, though rough teaspoon equivalents are offered for those without one.
