The short answer

A useful electrolyte comparison starts with the same measurement basis: the named product and flavour, its serving size, and whether a figure describes one serving or one litre. Higher numbers alone do not establish which product is suitable for you.

  • Some sources below are US pages; they do not verify a UK pack.
  • A blank or unverified figure does not mean zero.
  • Lula sells one of the products compared. This is our own source review, not independent testing.
The table

Six products, with the evidence beside them

These are manufacturer statements checked on 25 October 2026. We have not bought and tested every pack. The sources cover different markets; a brand name alone is not enough to establish that two formulations are identical.

Manufacturer pages checked 25 October 2026; not laboratory measurements.

How to choose

Five checks before you buy

  1. Exact product. Match flavour, country, format and pack size.
  2. Serving. Note the grams, sticks or tablets and the preparation instructions.
  3. Nutrition. Compare per serving with per serving. Read sugars separately from carbohydrate, and salt separately from sodium.
  4. Ingredients and suitability. Check sweeteners, allergens, warnings and any dietary restrictions against the supplied pack.
  5. Purchase terms. Compare the total payable, delivery, serving count and any recurring commitment. A foreign list price is not a UK delivered price.
Method

How the comparison was checked

We recorded the exact source pages, their stated market and serving basis. Directly stated figures are distinguished from calculations. We do not turn an ingredient list into a nutrition measurement or a front-of-pack sugar claim into a numeric zero.

For PH 1000, the per-serving calculation uses the maker’s 500 ml preparation instruction and 1,000 mg sodium per litre. For the conflicting carton information, we show the disagreement instead of selecting the more convenient number.

Prices and availability can change independently of composition. This table deliberately avoids a cheapest-product ranking because comparable UK delivery totals were not checked.

The takeaways

What this evidence can and cannot tell you

The sources support comparisons of stated ingredients, formats and selected quantities. They do not establish that one finished product performs better, tastes better or is suitable for every person. We have not conducted a head-to-head trial or blind taste test.

Our own product is held to the same standard: its disputed composition figures are excluded until the label records agree.

"Natural" and "clean"

Help keep this comparison accurate

If a supplied pack differs from the linked information, email hello@lulahealth.co.uk with the exact product, flavour, country, a clear label photo and its batch or best-before details. We will check the discrepancy before changing a row.

The date above describes this source check. It is not a promise that every pack or future formulation matches it.

Good to know

Questions, answered

What is the best electrolyte drink in the UK?

This table cannot establish a universal best. It helps compare stated composition, serving basis and formats; suitability depends on the exact product and your needs.

Does PH 1000 contain 1,000 mg sodium per packet?

The checked UK drink-mix source states 1,000 mg per litre and one packet in 500 ml. That calculates to 500 mg per prepared packet. Check the format: packets and tablets are different products.

Does an unverified sugars figure mean sugar-free?

No. Missing information is not zero. Read the nutrition panel and ingredient list on the exact pack.

Can I compare a US label with a UK label?

Only with the market difference made explicit. A matching brand or flavour does not establish that formulations, serving instructions or labelling are identical.

Where are these figures from?

The manufacturer pages linked in each row, checked on 25 October 2026. Figures are manufacturer statements, with the PH 1000 sodium conversion explicitly calculated.

Why are Lula’s composition figures missing?

The available label and website records need reconciliation. We have excluded those figures from this comparison while that is resolved.

Do you sell the other brands?

No. Lula sells only Lula. Other brand names are used only to identify the products compared, and Lula is not affiliated with them.
