If your product has been in storage and is past the expiration date, please conduct a visual inspection of any capsule before ingesting, opening up a test capsule to observe the ingredients. 

  • For regular use, ensure the lid is tightly sealed on the jar and don't get the capsules wet before using. Buy some of our zip-seal 10ct packets for easy storage in bags, cars and pockets. 
  • For long-term storage, ensure the lid is tightly sealed on the jar and store in a cool, dry environment at or slightly below room temperature with the desiccant packet sealed in the jar.

No, Klaralyte Salt Capsules do not contain gluten.  Klaralyte products are carefully formulated and tested to meet our quality claims.  Every batch of Klaralyte Salt Capsules is independently tested before resale. 

Over time we have received various questions from gluten-sensitive customers, and we thought these inquiries and our replies may be helpful for those who are gluten sensitive: 

 
What are your manufacturing standards to ensure your products are gluten free? 
• Each ingredient comes with a certificate of analysis, which is reviewed prior to and at the time of receiving.
• Each ingredient is tested for purity and product claims at our facility, before production starts.
• Production line is thoroughly cleaned, inspected and tested before production starts, to ensure a pure environment.
• Ingredients are mixed and mix is tested for purity and product claims.
• Final product is tested in-house for purity and product claims.
• Random sample lots are independently tested for purity and product claims.
 
 
Are Klaralyte products manufactured in a gluten free facility? 
All equipment is thoroughly cleaned prior to each Klaralyte production and, as stated above, each production is thoroughly tested to verify product claims.  We do not claim that Klarlyte is "made in a gluten free facility" anywhere in our packaging for marketing material, however, Klaralyte is indeed a gluten free product, meaning there is no gluten in the ingredients and the product is tested to verify purity before resale (see previous answer).  All manufacturing and production equipment is thoroughly cleaned prior to each Klaralyte production to ensure a containment free and gluten free production environment. 
 
 
Do you follow proper protocols to ensure the equipment used in manufacturing is gluten free? 
Yes.  All equipment is thoroughly cleaned prior to each Klaralyte production.  See previous answers. 
 
 
Do your employees wear or use any soap/sanitizer that contain gluten. 
No, our employees do not use soap / sanitizer that contains gluten and production staff are always properly protected (face mask, gloves, hair nets and lab coats) when working on production.  All steps are taken to ensure a gluten free environment during production. 
 
 
Do you allow employees to eat gluten and work the line?
We do not allow employees to eat gluten when working the production line or when actively processing or packaging Klaralyte products.  Production staff are always properly protected (face mask, gloves, hair nets and lab coats).  All steps are taken to ensure a gluten free environment during production.  
 
 
I have a gluten detection dog and my service dog indicates there is gluten in the product.  Is there gluten in Klaralyte Salt Capsules?
We would like to assure you that there is no gluten in Klaralyte Salt Capsules.  Klaralyte products are carefully formulated and tested to meet our quality claims.  Every batch of Klaralyte Salt Capsules is tested before resale.  Please consider if there may have been contact with gluten during delivery of your package, or perhaps there was somehow a false positive.  Please contact our service team if you have any further questions or concerns. 
No—Klaralyte Salt Capsules are not made with iodized salt sources. 
 
Iodised salt is table salt mixed with a minute amount of various salts of the element iodine.  Iodized salt is essential for your health, but you should have it in moderation. Iodine is a trace mineral common in dairy products, seafood, grains, and eggs. People combine iodine with table salt to reduce iodine deficiency.
 
Klaralyte Salt Capsules do not use iodized salt sources because Klaralyte is most often used as a supplementary source of sodium.  Most indivisual's primary source of sodium is their daily diet, which will likely already contain suffient sources of iodine.  

No, Klaralyte Salt Capsules do not contain corn.  There are only three ingredients in Klaralyte Salt Capsules: sodium chloride, potassium citrate and a vegetarian capsule. 

Klaralyte Salt Capsules nutrition guide

The potassium citrate in Klaralyte Salt Capsules is made from citric acid.  The citric acid is made from the herb, cassava.  

Klaralyte Salt Capsules nutrition panel

Klaralyte Salt Capsules are made with a type of sodium chloride that is essentially specially-sourced kosher salt (non-iodized), and is triple-milled (finely ground) and blended with our potassium citrate before encapsulation.  The electrolytes in Klaralyte Salt Capsules, both the sodium chloride and potassium citrate, originate in the USA and are manufactured in the USA at our cGMP facility. 

Yes, Klaralyte Salt Capsules are tested for lead and mercury, in addition to testing for many other potentially harmful elements.  Here is a brief overview of the manufacturing process as it relates to ingredient testing: 
• Each ingredient comes with a certificate of analysis, which is reviewed prior to and at the time of receiving.
• Each ingredient is tested for purity and product claims at our facility, before production starts.
• Production line is thoroughly cleaned, inspected and tested before production starts, to ensure a pure environment.
• Ingredients are mixed and mix is tested for purity and product claims.
• Final product is tested in-house for purity and product claims, and a certificate of analysis for the lot number is produced.
• Random sample lots are independently tested for purity and product claims.

The reason you may occasionally find a cracked or loose capsule is simple: we use NO ADDITIVES, including NO MANUFACTURING LUBRICANTS.  Other brands use manufacturing additives, including manufacturing lubricants (such as stearic acid).  Manufacturing additives and lubricants help capsules look near-perfect, however, they come with a potential health cost because they can cause bloating, allergic reactions, and other undesirable side effects in some people. 

Here's a video of Klaralyte vs. Competing Brand and you can see how the additives in the competing brand don't dissolve in water and create a thick goo or paste: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZ7jgb_GCAE. 

As you may expect, some individuals don't react well to additives, so we leave those out of Klaralyte Salt Capsules to give you a clean and pure salt pill!  We recommend comparing Klaralyte's ingredient list to other brands and you'll see Klaralyte Salt Capsules are the only salt pill with NO ADDITIVES and USA Made Electrolytes.  

ALSO, PLEASE NOTE!  We have a 100% money back guarantee, and we're more than happy to refund or replace any Klaralyte purchase that does not meet your satisfaction, for any reason.  If you ever have an issue with a Klaralyte order,  please contact our customer service team and we will be happy to assist you!

Product Usage

Yes, Klaralyte is safe to consume every day over a long period of time, as part of a normal diet and with regular hydration, under the guidance of your physician. If you have any questions or concerns, please consult with your physician. Klaralyte uses only safe ingredients: sodium chloride, potassium citrate and a vegetarian capsule. Klaralyte contains no additives and no hidden ingredients, is non-GMO, vegan, gluten and starch free, allergen free and preservative free. 

If you are consuming Klaralyte for a medical condition, make sure to consult your physician before making major changes to your diet. In general, you can take up to 2 capsules with water 2-5 times a day (up to 10 capsules daily).

Klaralyte Salt Capsules contain 635 mg of salt per capsule; equivalent to 250 mg of sodium per capsule. Everyone will require a unique sodium-intake or dosage. We suggest that you consult with your physician to determine your ideal intake. Refer to our chart for more information on dosage.

Unless advised by a medical professional, do not consume more than ten (10) Klaralyte Salt Capsules a day. Make sure to consult a physician before consuming if you are:

  • Pregnant or a nursing mother
  • Under 18
  • Someone who has a pre-existing medical condition

Klaralyte is not recommended for people who have diabetes, hypertension, or chronic renal insufficiency, nor for those on a low salt or low potassium diet unless otherwise advised by your physician. 

Klaralyte has not been shown to cause any significant irritation in individuals consuming the tablets over an extended period of time, even those with sensitive stomachs. However, individual results may differ – if you feel Klaralyte is upsetting your stomach, discontinue use and speak to your physician.

Yes, Klaralyte Salt Capsules are a vegan product.  Vegetable or vegetarian capsules are made of hypromellose, a vegetable cellulose found mainly in softwood trees, such as spruce and pine. Unlike gelatin capsules, there are no animal ingredients or by-products present, making them suitable not only for vegetarians but also for vegans.

Not really, but athletes can use Klaralyte Salt Capsules, so long as they understand some caveats: most electrolyte supplements for athletes contain a more robust mineral profile, including calcium and magnesium, both of which are lost during exercise, along with potassium and sodium chloride. Klaralyte Salt Capsules, however, contain only sodium and potassium, ideal for those with certain conditions that require an increase in "salt" intake. 

Klaralyte Salt Capsules are designed specifically for people who need to increase their intake of sodium, especially those for who regularly require a high dosage of sodium in their diet. If you are unsure whether Klaralyte is the right supplement for your needs, please consult a physician before consuming.

Klaralyte Salt Capsules come in a value size jar of 300 capsules.

  • For regular use, ensure the lid is tightly sealed on the jar and don't get the capsules wet before using. Buy some of our zip-seal 10ct packets for easy storage in bags, cars and pockets. 
  • For long-term storage, ensure the lid is tightly sealed on the jar and store in a cool, dry environment at or slightly below room temperature with the desiccant packet sealed in the jar. The ingredients in Klaralyte Salt Capsules are stable all-natural elements: sodium chloride, potassium citrate and a vegetarian capsule, and will maintain relative long-term nutritional integrity when properly stored, even for many years. 

While you can swallow Klaralyte without liquids, the capsules will digest best when consumed with food and something to drink, ideally water. Consuming capsules with food can help reduce the risk of you developing an upset stomach, while water helps push the capsule down to your stomach quicker.

Salt Science

Table salt, also known as sodium chloride, by weight is about 40% sodium and 60% chloride. If you are consuming 1 gram of salt, you’re actually consuming 400mg of sodium and 600mg of chloride.  

Klaralyte Salt Capsules contain 635 mg of sodium chloride per capsule; equivalent to 250 mg of sodium per capsule. Everyone will require a unique sodium-intake or dosage. We suggest that you consult with your physician to determine your ideal intake. Refer to our chart for more information on dosage.

Chart comparing salt (NaCl) to sodium (Na).

 

Your body requires a balanced intake of sodium and potassium to maintain balanced electrolyte levels. Potassium is necessary for several bodily functions, including regulating the water balance between the plasma in your blood and the inside of your cells.

If levels are unbalanced and only your sodium intake is higher, there is a risk that your body will not absorb the additional sodium you are consuming until you also boost your potassium intake. 

As with sodium, it is possible to make dietary changes to boost your potassium intake. However, for people who prefer an easy solution, Klaralyte Salt Capsules have been formulated to provide you with the optimal balance of sodium (250 mg) and potassium (50 mg) in a vegetarian capsule, so you don’t have to worry about consuming extra sodium through salty foods or snacks. 

Many salt tablets are made from sodium chloride or table salt. Sodium chloride is usually sourced from saltwater, which is purified into the salt you use at your table. It naturally contains trace quantities of other minerals and electrolytes, including manganese, zinc, potassium, and more.

Klarlayte contains only purified sodium chloride and potassium electrolytes, sourced from right here in the USA. The potassium is present to help balance the electrolyte levels you are ingesting, which is a key part in helping your body absorb sodium. Most other salt tablets do not contain the same potassium levels, forcing you to increase intake through other channels.
