Salty plum mineral drink Calories

You make a salty plum mineral drink by mixing the brine or pulp from fermented plums with mineral water. Start with a small amount of plum mixture and adjust the dilution to suit its intense salty, sour flavor.

It provides fluid, while its salt and minerals contribute electrolytes. It can be useful after sweating, but it is not a necessary replacement for water during ordinary daily hydration, and its sodium makes moderation sensible.

Not necessarily. Fermented plums are used to make a salty plum mineral drink, but that does not guarantee live probiotic cultures in the finished drink; processing or pasteurization can destroy them.

Fermented plums develop a sharp, tangy flavor, and salt is part of the drink’s preparation. Mineral water can make that taste more pronounced; dilute it with plain mineral water if the flavor is too strong.

Yes, you can drink it after a workout, particularly if you have sweated heavily, because it supplies fluid and salt. For a short, light workout, water is usually enough; this drink can add more sodium than you need.

Fresh plums alone will not give a salty plum mineral drink its characteristic fermented taste. The drink is made with fermented plums; simply salting fresh fruit does not produce the same flavor or fermentation.

There is no reliable evidence that a salty plum mineral drink treats nausea. Its strong sour and salty flavor may not suit everyone, so choose fluids you can tolerate and seek medical advice if nausea is severe or persistent.

Keep an opened salty plum mineral drink sealed in the refrigerator and follow the product’s storage instructions. Discard it if its smell, appearance or carbonation changes unexpectedly rather than relying on the original unopened shelf life.

It may not be a good choice for frequent or unrestricted drinking because the salted plum contributes sodium. If you have high blood pressure or have been told to limit salt, ask your clinician or dietitian what amount is appropriate.
