FAQs
These are for informational purposes only and do not provide medical advice; see our full disclaimer for more information. For any specific nutrition recommendations or questions, please refer to your child’s pediatrician or healthcare provider.
What are electrolytes, and why does my child need them?
Electrolytes are minerals naturally found in foods and present in our body. These minerals include sodium, chloride, potassium, magnesium, and calcium. Our bodies need them to support essential processes, like muscle contractions, nerve function, hydration and water balance, blood pressure, and pH balance.
Electrolytes move through our blood, and we eventually lose some through sweat and urine, so they need to be replenished regularly through our diets. For most kids, drinking enough fluids and eating a variety of foods—especially fruits and vegetables—is typically enough for proper hydration.

What age are Electrolyte Blends for?
Electrolyte Blends are recommended for kids ages 4+ years. However, it is ultimately up to you and your pediatrician to determine what is the best food to feed your child and when.
Are these hydration drinks? What’s the texture like?
Electrolyte Blends are not beverages and are not intended to replace water. They’re like snackable smoothies, made from blended whole fruits and veggies, plus coconut water and sea salt. The texture is similar to applesauce or another Once Upon a Farm purée pouch.
Do these pouches contain added sugar or preservatives?
Electrolyte Blends have no added sugar‡, and no artificial preservatives, dyes, or flavors.
Where can I buy Electrolyte Blends?
You can find Electrolyte Blends on our website (available as a variety pack or as part of a custom bundle box) and in select stores, including Whole Foods Market and Target.
Can we take the pouches on the go?
Yes! They’re easy to take on the go and can be left out of the fridge for up to 4 hours (be sure they are still cool to the touch). For longer trips or warm days, the pouches can be carried with an ice pack or placed inside one of our Pouch Coolers to keep them cooler for longer.
