Essential Minerals In Burntide At A Glance
Burntide declares sodium, calcium and magnesium on its panel. These arrive with the BHB salts, and being honest about their size matters.
Essential Minerals In The Burntide Formula
What Burntide Declares
The Supplement Facts panel lists three minerals per gummy:
- Sodium — 2.5 mg (0% Daily Value)
- Calcium — 1 mg (0% Daily Value)
- Magnesium — 0.75 mg (0% Daily Value)
Notice that the panel itself shows 0% Daily Value against each one. That is the label being accurate, and it tells you most of what you need to know.
Why These Minerals Are In Burntide
They are not added as a mineral supplement. They arrive because the BHB is supplied as mineral salts — calcium, magnesium and sodium beta-hydroxybutyrate — and those minerals come attached to the ketone.
Binding BHB to minerals is what makes it stable and usable in a product. The declared mineral amounts are a consequence of that chemistry.
What Electrolytes Do
Sodium, calcium and magnesium are all involved in fluid balance, nerve signalling and normal muscle and cellular function. They matter, which is why they appear on nutrition labels at all.
Magnesium is involved in hundreds of enzyme reactions including energy metabolism. Calcium is central to bone health, muscle contraction and nerve signalling. Sodium governs fluid balance and is rarely in short supply in a typical diet.
The honest scale
Adult daily requirements for magnesium run into the hundreds of milligrams and for calcium into the high hundreds. Burntide provides 0.75 mg and 1 mg respectively.
These are trace amounts by comparison, and the panel says so with its 0% Daily Value figures. If you are looking for meaningful mineral support, this is not the product for it — and we would rather tell you plainly than let a phrase like “essential minerals” do work it cannot do.
Where The Sodium Matters
At 2.5 mg per gummy, the sodium here is negligible for most people. Someone on a strictly restricted-sodium diet, following medical advice, should still be aware that BHB salts contribute sodium, and should mention the product to their doctor.
Mineral Safety Notes
- At these amounts, none of these minerals presents a meaningful safety concern for healthy adults.
- Anyone with kidney disease should discuss any mineral-containing supplement with their doctor.
- If you take a separate magnesium or calcium supplement, these amounts are too small to affect your total meaningfully.
Our Honest View
Accurately declared, chemically explicable, and very small. Their presence tells you how the BHB is delivered rather than offering a nutritional benefit in its own right, and the label is refreshingly straight about that with its 0% figures.
