Importance of Sodium in Diet and Hydration
Over 70% of sodium in the US diet comes from packaged and processed foods. Adopting a whole foods diet eliminates excess sodium. However, it's crucial not to cut out sodium completely as it is essential for fluid balance, hydration, nerve impulses, blood regulation, and blood pressure. Whole food diets may lack sufficient sodium. Simply drinking water without minerals may not effectively hydrate. Consider using electrolyte drinks like L-M-N-T for proper hydration and mineral replenishment.
