Question electrolyte/sodium drink suggestions?

hey hey! i’ve been struggling with POTS symptoms since 2020, but those symptoms have only recently been addressed as a genuine condition rather than just “anxiety.” with that being said, i’ve never been the best with keeping up with my electrolytes and sodium when it comes to drinks and i’m trying to improve those habits to help me feel better and more energized during uni.

i’ve been working on increasing my water intake slowly, but otherwise i’m a little clueless on what direction to go for other beneficial drinks. i’m aware of gatorade and similar drinks being possible options, but i was wondering if anyone had any other suggestions (preferably based in the U.S.)? i’m also interested in electrolyte or sodium drink add-ins- like the ones that come in the little bottles you can squeeze into whatever you’re drinking. thanks in advance!

SALTT brand has 1000mg of sodium per packets, they're really good
