Re: electrolyte drink- substitute for honey?-Patti

[Guest guest]

Hi Patti,

I would like to make the electrolyte drink for Sebastian.

Problem:

I stopped honey cheese and butter for one week which caused him to have panic

attacks.

I reintroduced one drop of honey with his fruit yesterday and today. And today

he is having very small panic attacks. So for us honey is out!! for a while at

least.

What can I use to substitute honey in the electrolyte drink.

Thanks

Tina

Two tablespoons of honey has about 34 grams of natural sugar

(monosaccharides). You could substitue legal juice with an

equivalent of approximately 34 grams of carbohydrates.

For example Knudsen's Just Juice Concord grape has 40g of carbs/240

ml (8 l oz). You add about 240 mL/8 fl oz (or a little less) of the

concord grape juice to your container, mix in the salt and baking

soda and then fill up your container with the boiled water to the 1

quart mark. Refrigerate and use within 24 hours.

This would be an approximate to the electrolyte mix.
