FAQs
What is Kinderlyte?
Kinderlyte is the first doctor-formulated, 100% natural Oral Electrolyte Solution (OES) with no artificial sweeteners, colors, or flavors brought to you by your friends at Kinderfarms.
Kinderlyte is for when you need hydration fast; available in both liquid and on-the-go powder form. Furthermore, it boasts a slew of health benefits.
What is an Oral Electrolyte Solution (OES)
An Oral Electrolyte Solution is a solution consisting of salt, water, and sugar properties that is administered when someone needs to replenish fluids and electrolytes that have been lost from the body.
What is Instant Absorption Technology® (IAT®) and how does it work?
Our natural, Instant Absorption Technology uses Non-GMO Dextrose (a simple sugar) to rapidly transport and absorb electrolytes directly to the bloodstream. We never add fructose (juice), which lessens the efficacy of Oral Electrolyte Solutions since it does not aide in the absorption of sodium.
What are Pre-Max Probiotics?
Pre-Max probiotics are a proprietary mix of prebiotics and probiotics that are added for gut health functionality to our Kinderlyte Advanced Liquids.
What is the difference between Kinderlyte Core and Kinderlyte Advanced?
Kinderlyte's core line was formulated for children and young families with three kid-friendly flavors. It has 20% more electrolytes than the leading Oral Electrolyte Solution and no artificial ingredients. For even more rehydration power, the Kinderlyte Advanced formulation has 30% more electrolytes than our Core line and even less sugar.
Both Kinderlyte Core and Advanced offer our natural Instant Absorption Technology® designed to transport electrolytes and other nutrients to the bloodstream fast like an IV. They are doctor formulated and made without artificial sweeteners, flavors, or colors. Kinderlyte products also never contain artificial ingredients like sucralose, acesulfame potassium, Yellow #6, Blue #1 or Red #40
This sounds Science-y, does Kinderlyte taste good?
Kinderlyte’s natural flavors taste great! We are so confident in the great taste of our products, that we offer a 100% money-back guarantee. Unlike the best flavors of Pedialyte, Kinderlyte uses all natural ingredients to achieve a fresh flavor.
Are Kinderfarms products Non-GMO Certified?
Yes! All of our products are Non-GMO Project Verified
Are Kinderfarms products Vegan?
Yes! All of our products are vegan
Are Kinderfarms products gluten-free?
Yes! All of our products are naturally gluten-free
Are you certified Organic?
Our Kinderlyte OES products are not Organic since minerals (such as sodium) do not qualify as organic per USDA rules (they are rocks, not living things, so cannot be "organic" by definition). The only way to get an electrolyte product "USDA organic certified" is to make the electrolytes themselves less than 5% of the total contents of the product and add 95% of the contents as something other than the electrolytes that are organic (like organic juice for example). Since juice makes OES products less effective, we have chosen to offer the highest quality, effective product using all natural ingredients.
What are electrolytes and why do we need them?
Electrolytes are essential minerals, like sodium, calcium, and potassium, that are vital to many key functions in the body. Electrolytes regulate muscle contractions, keep you hydrated, and help to balance your PH (the measure of acidity and alkalinity) and digestive help.
Low electrolyte levels can cause fatigue, headache, nausea, blood pressure changes, muscle cramps, and low energy.
Who is Kinderlyte for?
Kinderlyte is a great solution for the whole family! From toddlers, kids, adults, elderly, and everyone in-between!
When should I use Kinderlyte?
Kinderlyte is a perfect solution when you need hydration fast. This could be for a variety of reasons including sports, hangover, travel, stomach virus, infant diarrhea, toddler vomiting, and more!
How often should I use Kinderlyte?
You can use Kinderlyte daily as often as you need a boost in hydration.
How can I tell if I’m dehydrated?
75% of people are dehydrated. Symptoms of dehydration include dry skin, dry mouth, muscle cramps, headaches, fatigue, and brain fog (amongst other things).
What causes dehydration?
Dehydration is caused by the loss of electrolytes, usually by sweat, urine, vomiting, or diarrhea. Kinderlyte is effective to prevent dehydration.
Why can’t I just drink water?
You can, but Kinderlyte hydrates 3x faster than water alone making it one of the ideal sports drinks! Kinderlyte is perfect for when you need an even greater source of electrolyte replacement.
Can I use Kinderlyte if I’m pregnant or nursing?
All of the ingredients in Kinderlyte products are safe to drink when you are pregnant or nursing. However, we recommend that you consult with your physician beforehand. Can you take Pedialyte while pregnant? The answer is yes, however, Kinderlyte has many more health benefits. Our powder packets are easy to use and can negate nausea and vomiting. Can you drink Pedialyte powder while pregnant? In short, yes, however, it does not provide nearly as many benefits as Kinderlyte.
Can I drink Kinderlyte powder hot?
While most people prefer our taste when served with cold water, it does not hurt the product efficacy when you drink it as a hot beverage.
How long after I mix Kinderlyte powder with water can it be consumed?
We recommend consuming the product right away once it has been mixed with water but it will still be fine to drink for up to 48 hours after mixing.
How do I store Kinderlyte?
Kinderlyte Liquid can be stored ambient at room temperature or is best served cold after being in the fridge. Kinderlyte Powder can be stored ambient at room temperature and is best served cold with 16oz of cold water, but can also
