fight dehydration and replenish
electrolytes with
PureLyte Pediatric
In acute viral illnesses, dehydration and
electrolyte loss can be significant, so it is
important to rehydrate and replace lost
electrolytes and other nutrients. This is
especially true for children, as they may be less
able to physiologically withstand the effects of
diarrhea, vomiting, or fever.
diarrhea and vomiting cause
dehydration
When kids have the flu, fluid loss from
vomiting, diarrhea, and even fever can
quickly result in dehydration. Getting children
rehydrated can be a challenge, as the salty
taste of many oral electrolyte solutions doesn’t
appeal to kids. Fruit juices, fruity drinks,
and sports drinks contain too much sugar,
which can make diarrhea worse. They also
may not contain the necessary electrolytes.
Neither does plain water. PureLyte Pediatric
contains the sodium, potassium, and chloride
electrolytes necessary for cellular function, as
well as vitamin C, B-vitamins, calcium, and
chromium for nutritional support of cellular
energy production, immune function, and blood
sugar.
heat and exercise cause
fluid loss
The active child can lose excessive water
and electrolytes in sweat, whether during
exercise or fever. During prolonged exercise,
especially in the sun, kids are vulnerable to
dehydration and heat exhaustion. PureLyte
Pediatric replaces fluid and electrolytes, and
can prevent dehydration in active kids.

the salty taste that makes some electrolyte
products a challenge for many parents.

their children because kids love the taste and
will actually drink it. PureLyte Pediatric also
costs significantly less than other rehydration
products. Plus PureLyte Pediatric has a twoyear
