Health benefits

What research suggests about pickle juice and vinegar.

• Electrolytes: pickle juice is high in sodium, an electrolyte mineral lost through sweat. Get Pickled has 330mg of sodium per 30mL.
• Cramp relief: small studies suggest pickle juice can shorten some muscle cramps, possibly through a nerve reflex rather than rapid electrolyte replacement.
• Hydration: sodium can help replace sweat losses, but a small serving of brine does not supply enough fluid to rehydrate you. Drink water too.
• Blood sugar: vinegar research suggests it may modestly reduce blood-sugar rises after some meals.
• Heartburn: some people report relief, but pickle juice is not a proven heartburn remedy and may aggravate reflux.
• Hangover relief: a popular folk remedy, but pickle juice and added electrolytes have not been shown to reduce hangover severity. Water and time remain important for recovery. Learn more →
