electrolyte replacement

Electrolyte replacement involves restoring essential minerals like sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium in your body that help regulate fluid balance, nerve function, and muscle activity. When you sweat heavily, experience illness, or endure dehydration, these minerals can become depleted. Replenishing electrolytes can be done through drinking sports drinks, oral rehydration solutions, or consuming foods rich in these minerals. Proper replacement supports overall health, prevents muscle cramps, maintains consistent muscle and nerve function, and promotes proper hydration. It's especially important during or after intense physical activity or illness when electrolyte levels are likely to drop.
