Replace The Electrolytes You Use Everyday!
Not enough health advisers/practitioners talk about electrolytes and yet so many health issues can be resolved by keeping an electrolyte balance.
Electrolyte replacement is NOT just for athletes. It is critical for athletes but still imperative for everybody. Just about everyone is running around deficient in electrolytes. Electrolytes are essential for active bodies...this means shopping, working, driving, sleeping...you're losing electrolytes all day and all night long.
Feeling Fatigued? There's A Good Chance It's Because You're Deficient In Electrolytes!
Electrolytes give the body the electrical charge that keeps the heart, muscles and nervous system working properly. Fatigue, heavy sweating (or not sweating at all), cold hands or feet and susceptibility to colds are sign of a really bad imbalance.
When your electrolytes are truly balanced, there are all types of little health nuances you may have that will just go away. Let's face it, we all have little health issues and we aren't sure what causes them. Anyone with any type of illness, disease or major health concern should start taking electrolytes immediately.
The Usual Misconceptions About Electrolytes!
Usually if someone feels dehydrated, they drink water or a sports drink. I used to do the same. Sports drinks provide carbohydrates, which are important for active people. Sports drinks have lots of glucose in them. Marathoners, endurance athletes, hikers and bikers crave quick energy when working, so it's easy to see why they would grab a sports drink.
Water dilutes electrolytes and creates a greater electrolyte imbalance. Drinking water is very important and honestly, most people don't drink enough. Drinking water unfortunately makes people with electrolyte imbalance worse off. Mineral water contains a variety of minerals that upsets electrolyte balance.
