Best Electrolyte powders by Price
Electrolyte powders ranked by price per serving, cheapest first, with the reminder that you are often buying fuel as well as salt.
Powders average about 1.10 EUR per serving in our catalogue against roughly 0.50 EUR for tabs. That is not automatically overpriced: most powders carry carbohydrate, so part of what you are paying for is fuel. It only becomes waste when you wanted hydration alone and bought calories you then had to count.
So the value question here is really a format question. If your carbs are already handled by gels or chews, a tab is the cheaper habit. If you want electrolytes and energy in one bottle, price the powder against what it replaces rather than against a tab.
The full argument, with references: Electrolyte tabs vs powders, how to choose
The top 10
Read price against the carbs column: a powder that replaces a gel is priced differently from one that just replaces a tab.
