I fear we have officially lost the plot on electrolytes. π
YES, replacing electrolytes is important in certain situations - like long endurance exercise, extreme heat, heavy sweating, vomiting/diarrhea, or conditions like POTS.
But for most people? Plain water is a fantastic hydrator. And letβs not forget that we get fluids and electrolytes from food, too. In fact, most North Americans are already consuming well above the recommended sodium intake.
If electrolytes help you feel your best, great! But donβt let wellness culture convince you that plain water suddenly stopped working.
