Health Expert Critiques Electrolit's Sugar Content and Regulatory Status

Dr. Mike Rivas, a stomatologist, recently criticized the rehydration drink Electrolit. He claims it's registered as a medication, allowing it to bypass sugar regulations. Rivas stated, "Electrolit contains 3.7 times more sugar than recommended by the World Health Organization," highlighting 50g per liter versus WHO's 13.5g guideline. He also noted the absence of specific labeling seals, suggesting this fosters misinformation and unfair competition, impacting public health. Rivas advised consumers to seek healthier rehydration options.
