It is stunningly evident how much intervals are increasing my capabilities.
Also tested the idea of Baking soda in Camelback to 1) buffer ph lowering in blood due to metabolism 2) provide salt...

Lessons learned.
tasted real bad.
1 rounded teaspoon far too much.
Read also that using lemon juice and baking soda is most effective short term gout relief.
So lower to 1 flat teaspoon and "some" lemon juice should both address the gout, add salt, and improve taste.

Leaves potassium, calcium, magnesium, and phosphorous as remaining electrolytes of concern...
