FAQs

What are the best drinks for improving gut health?

The best drinks for gut health include:

1. Probiotic-rich beverages such as kefir, kombucha, and fermented drinks that introduce beneficial bacteria into the digestive system.
2. Herbal teas like ginger, peppermint, and fennel tea, known for their natural digestive-supporting properties.
3. Electrolyte-enhanced water, such as water infused with Buoy’s electrolyte drops, which helps regulate fluid balance, reduce bloating, and support digestion.
4. Aloe vera juice, which contains natural enzymes that promote gut healing.
5.Bone broth, which is rich in collagen and amino acids that help strengthen the gut lining.

Maintaining hydration with gut-friendly electrolyte drinks helps regulate digestion and prevent constipation, bloating, and discomfort.

How do Buoy's electrolyte and mineral drops support digestive health?

Buoy’s electrolyte and mineral drops support digestion in multiple ways:

1. Hydration balance: Proper fluid levels prevent constipation and help food move smoothly through the digestive tract.
2. Electrolyte replenishment: Magnesium, potassium, and sodium help regulate gut motility and support smooth muscle contractions in the intestines.
3. Herbal digestive support: Formulations with ginger and peppermint naturally soothe the stomach, alleviate gas, and reduce bloating.
4. Nutrient absorption: Proper electrolyte balance enhances the body’s ability to absorb vitamins and minerals efficiently.


Unlike many flavored electrolyte powders, Buoy’s drops are unflavored and free from sugar or artificial sweeteners, making them ideal for gut-sensitive individuals.

Can these drinks help with chronic digestive conditions like IBS or acid reflux?

Yes, while no single drink cures IBS or acid reflux, proper hydration and electrolyte balance can help reduce symptoms.

For IBS sufferers, electrolyte-enhanced drinks like Buoy’s Digestion Drops may help:

1. Prevent bloating and discomfort by ensuring smooth digestion.
2. Regulate gut motility, reducing symptoms like constipation or diarrhea.
3. Reduce intestinal cramping by supporting proper nerve function in the digestive system.


For acid reflux, hydration plays a key role. Drinking low-acid, electrolyte-infused water (instead of carbonated or sugary drinks) keeps stomach acid levels balanced without causing irritation.

Those with chronic gut issues should consult a healthcare provider to tailor their hydration routine to their condition.

What are the signs of improved gut health?

A well-balanced gut reflects in both digestive and overall well-being. Signs that your gut health is improving include:

1. Regular bowel movements with less bloating and discomfort.
2. Reduced gas and stomach cramping due to a more stable gut microbiome.
3. Better digestion and nutrient absorption, leading to increased energy levels.
4. Fewer food intolerances as gut inflammation decreases.
5. Clearer skin, since gut health is closely linked to skin conditions like acne and eczema.
6. Improved immune function, as the gut houses nearly 70% of the body’s immune cells.

By adding gut-friendly electrolyte hydration, like Buoy’s drops, to your routine, you help support overall digestive wellness.

How often should I use Buoy's electrolyte drops to support my digestive health?

Buoy’s sugar-free electrolyte drops can be used daily to maintain gut balance and hydration. Here’s a recommended usage plan:

1. Morning: Start your day with Buoy-enhanced water to hydrate your digestive system and stimulate bowel movements.
2. Before meals: Drinking water with Buoy’s electrolytes before eating can aid digestion and prevent bloating.
3. After meals: To support smooth digestion and reduce discomfort, take a light squeeze in your post-meal drink.
5. As needed: If you experience digestive discomfort, electrolytes with ginger and peppermint can provide relief.

Since Buoy is free from sugars and artificial additives, it’s safe for consistent, everyday use.

Are Buoy's electrolyte drops compatible with all types of diets?

Yes! Buoy’s zero-calorie, zero-carb, sugar-free formula is compatible with:

1. Keto & Low-Carb Diets: Contains no sugar or artificial sweeteners, which means no insulin spikes.
2. Vegan & Plant-Based Diets: Formulated with no animal-derived ingredients.
3. Gluten-Free Diets: 100% gluten-free and allergen-free.
4. Paleo & Whole30 Diets: Free from processed additives and synthetic ingredients.


Regardless of your dietary preference, Buoy provides essential electrolytes and minerals without gut-irritating ingredients.

Can dehydration cause digestive problems?

Yes! Dehydration is a major contributor to poor digestion. When the body lacks adequate fluids:

1. The intestines absorb too much water from food, leading to hard stools and constipation.
2. Digestive enzymes function less efficiently, slowing down nutrient absorption.
3. The gut’s protective mucosal lining may weaken, increasing irritation.
4. Gut motility slows, causing bloating and discomfort.

Replenishing electrolytes ensures that your body can retain fluids properly, supporting regular digestion.

What drinks should be avoided for gut health?

Certain drinks disrupt gut balance and should be minimized or avoided, including:

1. Sugary sodas and fruit juices – High in fructose and additives, which can cause gas, bloating, and inflammation.
2. Alcohol – Can irritate the gut lining and contribute to leaky gut syndrome.
3. Caffeinated energy drinks – Overconsumption may trigger acid reflux and digestive distress.
4. Artificially sweetened beverages – Sugar alcohols like sorbitol and xylitol can cause bloating, diarrhea, and discomfort.
5. Flavored electrolyte powders with added sugar – Many electrolyte drinks contain processed ingredients that undermine gut health.


Choosing clean hydration solutions like Buoy’s Digestion Drops ensures you’re getting pure electrolytes and gut-friendly minerals without artificial irritants.

Can electrolyte drinks help reduce bloating?

Yes, the right electrolyte balance can reduce bloating by:

1. Regulating fluid retention, which prevents water retention bloating.
2. Supporting digestion, ensuring food moves efficiently through the digestive tract.
3. Soothing gut inflammation when paired with herbal ingredients like ginger and peppermint.
4. Preventing constipation, which can lead to bloating and discomfort.

Electrolyte-enhanced hydration, like Buoy’s mineral drops, helps regulate gut function without excess sugar or artificial additives.

Can Buoy's Digestion Drops be used alongside probiotic supplements?

Absolutely! Electrolytes and probiotics complement each other in supporting gut health.

1. Probiotics introduce beneficial bacteria to the gut microbiome.
2. Electrolytes improve hydration and gut motility, creating an optimal environment for probiotics to thrive.
3. Ingredients like ginger and peppermint in Buoy’s Digestion Drops help reduce gut irritation, making it easier for probiotics to flourish.

For best results, pair Buoy’s electrolyte drops with probiotic-rich foods or supplements to maximize digestive support.
