Product Description
Product Description
Ortha Salt Capsules were formulated for people who need more sodium than standard sports products provide — and who can't afford reactions from filler ingredients. Each serving (2 capsules) delivers 750mg sodium, 250mg potassium, and 25mg Vitamin C. The sodium supports blood volume. The potassium helps regulate fluid balance. The Vitamin C supports the body's natural histamine breakdown process — a deliberate choice for the MCAS community.
Ortha contains no maltodextrin, no preservatives, no artificial dyes, no sweeteners, and no citric acid. The capsule shell is vegetarian. That's the complete ingredient list.

What makes Ortha different from Vitassium or other salt capsules?
What makes Ortha different from Vitassium or other salt capsules?
Three things stand out:
1. More sodium per capsule. Ortha delivers 750mg per 2-cap serving. Vitassium delivers 500mg. That means you need fewer Ortha caps to hit your daily protocol — which matters when you're taking 8–12 caps a day.
2. Vitamin C for histamine support. Ortha includes 25mg of Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) per serving. Vitamin C supports the activity of diamine oxidase (DAO), the enzyme responsible for breaking down histamine in the body. No other salt capsule on the market combines sodium with Vitamin C for this reason.
3. Built for MCAS, not just POTS. Ortha contains no ingredients commonly flagged as mast cell triggers: no citric acid, no maltodextrin, no artificial preservatives, no dyes, no sweeteners. Most salt capsule brands are designed for dysautonomia broadly. Ortha was formulated with MCAS overlap specifically in mind.
How many capsules should I take per day?
How many capsules should I take per day?
Most POTS patients are directed by their doctors to consume between 3,000–10,000mg of sodium daily, depending on their individual protocol.
At 750mg sodium per 2-capsule serving, a common approach:
• 3,000mg/day = 8 capsules
• 6,000mg/day = 16 capsules
• 8,000mg/day = approximately 22 capsules
Many people split their daily intake across 3–4 windows: morning, midday, mid-afternoon, and evening. Always follow your healthcare provider's specific guidance. Start with a lower amount and increase gradually.
Always take capsules with water. Minimum 8oz per serving. Taking on an empty stomach without water can cause discomfort.
Why does Ortha include Vitamin C?
Why does Ortha include Vitamin C?
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) has been studied for its role in supporting the body's natural histamine regulation. Specifically, it supports the activity of diamine oxidase (DAO) — the primary enzyme responsible for breaking down dietary and ingested histamine. For people managing MCAS alongside POTS, this small addition is intentional.
It's not a treatment or a cure for MCAS. But for a community that has to scrutinize every ingredient in every supplement, it's a purposeful choice — not a marketing add-on.
25mg per serving is a conservative, well-tolerated dose. It contributes to your daily Vitamin C intake without stacking unnecessarily.
How is Ortha different from electrolyte drinks like LMNT or Liquid IV?
How is Ortha different from electrolyte drinks like LMNT or Liquid IV?
LMNT and Liquid IV are formulated as flavored drinks. That means citric acid (a common MCAS trigger), sweeteners, natural or artificial flavors, and the need to mix and drink a full bottle of flavored water — often multiple times per day. When you're already nauseous or symptomatic, that's a real barrier.
Ortha is a capsule. No mixing. No taste. No flavoring agents. No citric acid. Two caps and a sip of water — whether you're at your desk, at work, in a parking lot, or barely out of bed.
LMNT also relies on stevia, which some MCAS patients react to. Liquid IV contains sugar and multiple B vitamins, which can accumulate dangerously if you're taking 3–5 servings per day (as many POTSies do). Ortha has none of those concerns.

Hear From Real People

Finally no flare from an electrolyte
"I have MCAS and POTS and I react to almost everything. Checked every ingredient in Ortha before I touched it. Nothing flagged. Six weeks in and not one reaction. I actually cried. I can't remember the last six flare-free weeks." — Kelsey M. ★★★★★
-
Switched from Vitassium. No more stomach pain.
"Salt pills always hurt my stomach. I thought that was just how it was. Tried Ortha on a recommendation and nothing — zero pain. Getting more sodium per capsule too so I take fewer of them. Should've switched months ago." — Jessica P. ★★★★★
-
Keep them in my scrub pocket
"I'm a nurse with POTS. Can't mix drinks mid-shift. Now I keep Ortha in my pocket. Two before my shift, two at lunch. Haven't had to sit on the med room floor in two months." — Amanda R., RN ★★★★★
More Sodium Per Capsule. Fewer Pills to Hit Your Protocol.
At 750mg per serving, Ortha delivers more sodium per cap than leading salt pills. Reach your cardiologist's daily target with fewer capsules — which matters when you're already taking a handful of medications. Your protocol. Actually achievable.
Built for MCAS. Not Just POTS.
No citric acid. No maltodextrin. No artificial preservatives. No dyes. No sweeteners. The 25mg of Vitamin C per serving isn't a marketing add-on — it's there because it supports histamine breakdown, and that matters for a significant portion of the POTS community. If you've tried electrolytes and reacted to most of them, Ortha was made for exactly that.
Pop Two Capsules. Keep Moving.
Mixing drinks when you're symptomatic isn't realistic. When you're mid-crash at work, in a parking lot, or barely out of bed — you don't have time to shake a bottle. Ortha goes in your pocket, your purse, your desk drawer, your glove compartment. Two caps and a sip of water. That's the whole protocol.
