Bounce Back Quickly After Workouts With This DIY Electrolyte Drink

Whether your thing is spin classes, lifting heavy at the gym, getting your steps in, or some combination, you want to get the most health benefits from each activity. And that means properly hydrating.

But plain water doesn't always do the trick, and electrolyte drinks can get pricey while packing in a lot of salt. Not to mention, most premixed electrolyte drinks leave out one vital ingredient to promote recovery: creatine. 

Ingredients: 

Creatine has been one of the most widely used sports supplements for decades—for good reason. It truly works.

Research shows taking 5 grams of creatine daily helps combat muscle soreness from exercise and aids recovery. It also promotes strength and power during exercise—so you can push yourself harder.*

But its benefits aren't isolated to professional athletes. Pretty much every person can benefit from added creatine. That's why mindbodygreen created creatine+.

This flavorless powder provides an optimal 5-gram dose in addition to 2 grams of the amino acid taurine (which further supports your fitness goals, as well as your heart and brain health).* 

It's time to start making your electrolyte drinks at home. While we suggest a refreshing raspberry lemonade, you can use any fruit and herbs you like. Just don't forget the creatine+.
