Hydration built on the science, not the sugar
Most sports drinks make you choose: enough electrolytes but a pile of sugar, or “clean” but barely any sodium where it counts. Steady Active — Lime is built differently. It uses a small, deliberate amount of glucose — not to sweeten, but to switch on your body’s sodium-glucose cotransport (SGLT1) pathway, the same mechanism behind medical oral rehydration solutions. When sodium and glucose arrive together in the right ratio, your gut pulls water in faster and holds onto it longer.
That’s why Steady Active keeps the glucose low and the electrolytes high, in a ratio tuned to roughly 1 part glucose to 1 part sodium — the range where absorption is most efficient. You get the rehydration benefit without the sugar crash.
What’s in every serving
- 450 mg Sodium (20% DV) — the workhorse electrolyte you lose most in sweat
- 250 mg Potassium (6% DV) — supports fluid balance and normal muscle function
- 90 mg Magnesium (20% DV) — as di-magnesium malate, for muscle and energy support
- 3 g carbohydrate / just 10 calories — enough glucose to drive absorption, not to fuel a workout
- Real organic lime — bright, clean, genuinely citrus, never syrupy
The sodium-to-potassium ratio sits near 1.8:1, and mixed as directed the drink lands in the isotonic-to-slightly-hypotonic range — light on your stomach, so it empties and absorbs quickly instead of sitting heavy during activity.
Who it’s for
Steady Active is everyday, everywhere hydration for people who move: early workouts, long training sessions, hot-weather work, travel days, the morning after, or simply catching up on fluids when plain water isn’t cutting it. If you sweat, sit in the heat, or just run dry, this is the one to reach for.
How to use it
Add one serving to 12–16 oz of cold water, stir or shake, and drink. Use before, during, or after activity — or any time you need to rehydrate faster than water alone allows.
Why “Steady”
Because good hydration isn’t a spike, it’s a level. Steady Active gives you a complete electrolyte profile and just enough glucose to move it where it needs to go — steady in, steady on.
Steady Active is also available in a higher-potassium K+ formula for those who need more potassium replacement. Lime is one flavor in the Steady Active line.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Steady Active — Lime?
Steady Active — Lime is a rapid-hydration electrolyte drink mix. One serving stirred into 12–16 oz of water delivers sodium, potassium, and magnesium along with a small amount of glucose that helps your body absorb water and sodium together for faster, longer-lasting hydration.*
Why does Steady Active contain a small amount of glucose?
The glucose is functional, not just for flavor. Your gut absorbs sodium and water most efficiently when a little glucose is present alongside sodium — a process called sodium-glucose cotransport (SGLT1). Steady Active uses just 3 g of carbohydrate in a ratio tuned for absorption, supporting rapid hydration without a heavy sugar load.*
How is Steady Active different from a typical sports drink?
Most sports drinks are built to fuel long efforts, so they are high in sugar and often light on sodium. Steady Active emphasizes electrolytes with minimal glucose, formulated for rehydration rather than calories, delivering 450 mg sodium, 250 mg potassium, and 90 mg magnesium at only 10 calories per serving.*
When should I use Steady Active?
Steady Active can be used before, during, or after exercise, during hot-weather activity or travel, or any time plain water is not keeping up with your hydration needs.*
How do I mix Steady Active?
Add one serving to 12–16 oz of cold water and stir or shake until dissolved. Mixing within this range keeps the drink light and easy to absorb.*
How much sugar and how many calories are in each serving?
Each serving contains just 3 g of sugar and 10 calories — a small fraction of a typical sports drink.*
What does Steady Active — Lime taste like?
Steady Active — Lime has a bright, clean citrus flavor made with real organic lime. It is tart and refreshing rather than syrupy or artificial.*
Why is there a potassium notice on the label?
Each serving provides more than 99 mg of potassium, so FDA labeling guidelines require a potassium notice. This is a standard disclosure for products at this potassium level. If you have kidney concerns or take medications that affect potassium, consult your healthcare provider before use.*
Is Steady Active plant-based and free of artificial sweeteners?
Steady Active is made with plant-derived, organic ingredients and is flavored with real organic lime, with no artificial sweeteners. Please refer to the product label for allergen and facility information specific to your batch.*
Where is Steady Active made?
Steady Active is manufactured for The Functional Perspective, LLC in Nacogdoches, TX, USA, under standard dietary-supplement manufacturing practices.*
