Salty is the electrolyte we make right here in Canada. Canadian sea salt, real freeze-dried fruit, creatine and a Canadian-grown mushroom in every bag, and zero natural flavours. Have a poke around.
Made in Canada with domestic and imported ingredients.
Meet the Saltys
Three electrolytes, three Canadian mushrooms, and Canadian sea salt in every one. Tap one and we'll fill the glass.
Strawberry lemonade, hot pink from dragon fruit
The woman's electrolyte. First glass of the day for a lot of you, before the coffee and the inbox.
= Canadian · Two teaspoons per glass · 28 glasses a bag
Three taps, zero homework

From our founder
Pull up a chair. This is how I make mine.
The group chat
Real people, real glasses. Pick a Salty to see its clips and reviews.
Real reviews from Judge.me, quoted as written (some trimmed for length). Everyone's experience is their own.
Read the label
Two words that sound clean and can cover a lot. Tap them and see, then flip over a bag of ours.
The usual label
Ingredients: citric acid, sodium citrate, potassium citrate, stevia leaf extract, , silicon dioxide.
Tap "natural flavours" to see what it can hide
A "natural flavour" only has to start from a plant or animal source. It can be built in a lab from there, and the helpers used to make it don't have to be listed on your label.
Salty Goddess
Sugar, honestly
Salt and sugar are old friends. In your small intestine, sodium and glucose are taken in together through the same doorway. Scientists call it the sodium-glucose co-transporter, SGLT1 for short.
Stevia and monk fruit make a drink taste sweet, but they aren't glucose, so they can't do that pairing job. Sports drinks go the other way with a whole lot of sugar. Every Salty sits in the middle: 3.7g of organic cane juice per glass, about one teaspoon, which is just enough to turn tart fruit into lemonade or punch.
You don't need a sports drink's worth. You do need some.
Tap to compare. One cube is about 4g.
One glass of any Salty. About one teaspoon of organic cane juice.
Read the small print
"Magnesium" on a label is always magnesium bonded to something else. What it's bonded to is called the form, and the form changes the taste, the texture and the price. Here are the ones you'll see most, including the three we use. Tap through them.

Others you'll see
The mushroom side
Each Salty carries 1000mg of one of our Canadian-grown, full spectrum mushrooms, the same ones in our 230g pouches. Here's how their tested beta-glucans stack up against leading imported extracts.
Hericium erinaceus
Cordyceps militaris
Grifola frondosa
Beta-glucan (1,3 and 1,6) content from third-party testing. Comparison figures are from leading imported mushroom extracts.

We asked Electrokare Labs, an independent research and performance tech group, to run a proper trial on Salty Turbo. Every runner did four workouts, two on Turbo and two on a placebo, in a shuffled order nobody could see.
Share of sessions where runners said their energy stayed steady the whole way through.
Average focus score runners gave themselves after each session, out of 5.
How hard the run felt, out of 10 (lower is easier), at the same or higher output.
6 bpm lower on average
At the same or higher workout intensity. This is the result with p = 0.0003 attached: about 3 in 10,000 odds of a gap that big by pure luck.
85% fewer cramping notes
Runners logged any cramping straight after each session. Turbo sessions had far fewer of those notes than placebo sessions.
A model trained only on heart rate, HRV, pace and splits picked out the Turbo sessions 76% of the time. Guessing gets you 50.
Make your first glass
Go on, make one right here. Pick a Salty, then tap each step.
Four ways to drink it
Two teaspoons, 10oz of cold water, shake. Done in the time it takes to find your keys.
No scoop. On purpose.
Plastic scoops get lost in the bag and then sit in a landfill for a few hundred years. We left it out. Two level teaspoons from your kitchen drawer is exactly one serving.
A tiny history lesson
Salt on your food, broth on the stove, fruit in the bowl.
Neon colours, lots of sugar, and a recipe built around a pro athlete mid-game.
Powders got trendy, and the ingredient lists filled up with sweeteners, fillers and "natural flavour."
Real salt, real fruit, a mushroom and creatine. Every milligram on the label. Made right here in Canada.

Our story
We're Brett and Jaye, plant nerds and the people most likely to turn a Sunday morning into a three-hour conversation about adaptogens.
We built Good Livin because this is how we actually live. Clean ingredients, no "natural flavours" hiding a laundry list of mystery stuff, no fillers. Just the real deal, the things we actually use, with formulas backed by science, not just vibes. Okay, some vibes, but the good kind.
This is the good stuff. Welcome in.

Good questions
Yes. Everything on this page is about the same Salty bags on the shelf in front of you. Same recipe, same milligrams.
Two teaspoons per serving, in about 10oz of cold water. Any teaspoon from your kitchen drawer works. Go up to 16oz of water if you like it lighter.
Our go-to: Goddess first thing, Einstein on desk days, Turbo before you sweat. Honestly though, they're all two teaspoons in water, so drink the one you're in the mood for. Stick to the serving on each bag.
Salty is made in Canada with domestic and imported ingredients. The sea salt is Canadian, and the mushroom in every bag is grown in Canada.
It was marketed that way for years. These days it's one of the most researched supplements out there, and loads of people add it to their morning. Ours is creatine HCL, the more soluble form, so it mixes clean with no grit.
Because there's real Canadian sea salt in it, and we like you to taste it. Fruit up front, a little salt on the finish. Very margarita-adjacent.
We can't promise how you'll feel, and we'd side-eye anyone who does. Bodies are wildly different. What we can tell you is exactly what's in every glass, down to the milligram, and how to make it. For anything health-related, your doctor is the best first call.
Good food and plenty of water come first, always. Check with your practitioner before using Salty if you:
Stay salty.
Three bags. Two teaspoons. Made in Canada, and waiting for you on the shelf at your local health food store.
