Maxilyte

Diarrhoea can cause the body to lose water and essential electrolytes. Maxilyte is a ready-to-drink oral solution designed to help replace lost fluids and electrolytes, with a low-osmolarity formulation containing added zinc and prebiotics (GOS).

Key Ingredients and Their Roles:
– Sodium, potassium and chloride: Essential electrolytes that help replace lost salts and support the body’s fluid balance.
– Dextrose (glucose): Helps the intestine absorb sodium and water, making it an essential component of oral rehydration formulations.
– Citrate: A component of the electrolyte formulation.
– Zinc: An essential nutrient that contributes to normal immune function. Each 240 mL bottle contains 2 mg of zinc.
– Prebiotics (GOS): Galacto-oligosaccharides, included as a food source for beneficial gut bacteria.
