Electrolyte Management

Electrolyte management involves maintaining the balance of minerals like sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium in your body, which are essential for functions such as nerve signaling, muscle contractions, and maintaining fluid balance. Proper management ensures these minerals stay within optimal levels, especially during illness, vigorous activity, or dehydration. This can involve consuming appropriate foods and fluids, and in some cases, using supplements or medical treatments to correct imbalances. Effective electrolyte management helps prevent symptoms like muscle cramps, weakness, dizziness, or more serious issues related to heart and nerve function.
