The Importance of Electrolytes and Hydration
Optimal hydration requires not just water intake but also adequate electrolyte consumption. Many people overlook the necessity of electrolytes, particularly sodium, which can result in issues like muscle cramps, headaches, and energy dips. Historical guidance to drink eight glasses of water daily, regardless of thirst, may dilute blood electrolyte levels that can lead to adverse effects on health. Drinking electrolyte-rich beverages, such as the newly introduced sparkling electrolyte water, can effectively replenish these essential minerals.
