Liquid I.V. Hydration Multiplier is the electrolyte stick pack you have seen everywhere: one packet in 16 ounces of water delivers 500mg of sodium and 370mg of potassium. At $24.99 for a 16-pack, it is the entry-level, mass-market option in the hydration category.
The formula is built around sodium and potassium, the two electrolytes that most affect fluid balance, plus a dose of B and C vitamins: 62mg vitamin C, 19.3mg niacin, and 5.79mcg B12, among others, per stick. Each 16-gram stick is 50 calories. The brand markets a LIV HYDRASCIENCE formula and states it is clinically demonstrated to hydrate faster than water alone and carries three times the electrolytes of the leading sports drink, claims we report as brand-stated rather than independently verified. The original line lists 19 flavors as of July 2026, alongside separate Sugar-Free, Energy, Immune, and Kids ranges.
The honest read for a longevity-minded reader is the sugar. The original formula carries 11 grams of added sugar per stick, 22 percent of the daily value, from cane sugar and dextrose with a touch of stevia. That is intentional, glucose helps the sodium-glucose transport the brand's hydration claim relies on, but if you are minimizing added sugar, the separate Sugar-Free line with zero sugar is the version to reach for. This is a convenience consumable, not longevity hardware, and we place it that way.
Where it gives ground: cost per stick is $1.56 one-time or $1.09 on subscription from the brand, and bulk buys at big-box retailers are cheaper still, so the brand site is rarely the lowest price. The clinical claims apply to the formula per the brand, not to independent trials we can cite. And because Liquid I.V. runs a headless storefront without a public products feed, we verified pricing through on-page structured data in July 2026, which can drift.
For travel, heat, training days, or a hangover, it does one job, fast electrolyte replacement in a portable stick, and does it conveniently. Just pick Sugar-Free if the 11 grams give you pause.
Anyone who wants a portable, convenient electrolyte hit for travel, heat, or training days, and who values grab-and-go simplicity over cost per serving.
You are minimizing added sugar (reach for the Sugar-Free line instead) or you want the lowest price per serving, since bulk retail beats the brand site.

Do the hydration claims hold up?
