Royal-D Electrolyte Beverage Original Flavor, 25 g

Royal-D Electrolyte Beverage Original Flavor — electrolyte drink powder, 25 g

Royal-D is a single-serving powder for making a refreshing drink with glucose and electrolytes. The sachet is convenient for exercise, physical work, hot-weather outings or travel, when active sweating causes the body to lose both water and mineral salts.

Once dissolved, the powder produces a sweet fruit-flavoured drink. The green package shown on this product page is the Original Flavor version. It is not Royal-D Orange Plus Vitamin and should not be presented as a vitamin supplement.

The product may be described as electrolyte powder, a powdered sports drink or an isotonic-style drink. It is intended for everyday hydration during heat and physical activity, but it is not a medicinal oral rehydration solution for treating dehydration.

The sachet contains one 25 g serving. Dissolve the entire contents in clean drinking water using the mixing ratio printed on the back of the current sachet.

When the drink may be useful

Royal-D is convenient before, during or after moderate exercise, prolonged exposure to hot weather, heavy sweating or demanding physical work. The powder takes up little space and requires only water and a cup or bottle.

Glucose gives the drink its sweet taste and supplies carbohydrates. Sodium and potassium are among the principal electrolytes lost through sweat. However, an electrolyte drink is not required after every brief activity; water remains the main source of everyday hydration for most people.

Severe weakness, confusion, fainting, very little urine, persistent vomiting or serious dehydration requires medical attention.

What the formula contains

The Royal-D electrolyte drink is based on:

• glucose: provides sweetness and carbohydrates;
• sodium salts: supply one of the main electrolytes lost through sweat;
• potassium salts: complement the electrolyte profile;
• citrates and food acids: contribute to the product's composition and taste;
• flavouring ingredients: create the Original fruit flavour.

Check the back of the received sachet for the complete ingredient list and the exact sugar and electrolyte content, as different Royal-D versions may have different packaging and formulations.

How to prepare

1. Prepare a clean cup or bottle and safe drinking water.
2. Empty the entire contents of one sachet into the water.
3. Use the volume of water printed on the back of the sachet, as mixing ratios may differ between Royal-D products and versions.
4. Stir or shake thoroughly until the powder has dissolved.
5. Consume the freshly prepared drink and do not leave the remainder in a warm place for a prolonged period.

Do not make the drink more concentrated by reducing the amount of water, and do not combine several sachets in one serving.

Important: not a medicinal oral rehydration solution

Royal-D is a food-grade electrolyte beverage. It is not equivalent to a pharmacy oral rehydration solution formulated with a therapeutic ratio of glucose and salts.

• Do not use it as the sole treatment for dehydration caused by diarrhoea or vomiting.
• Do not consider it a treatment for a hangover or alcohol poisoning.
• People with diabetes should account for the drink's carbohydrate and sugar content.
• Seek medical advice in cases of kidney or heart disease, high blood pressure, or sodium or potassium restriction.
• Children with vomiting, diarrhoea or dehydration should receive a solution recommended by a paediatric healthcare professional.
• Do not use powder that is expired, damp or contained in a damaged sachet.
