hydration is crucial to a healthy body
Many of us encounter dehydration and
we fail to realize the consequences. Excessive physical activity,
sweating, vomiting, or even diarrhea can result in dehydration, which
can be linked to an increase of serious health issues. Dehydration is
also the most common causes of fluid and electrolyte disturbance in
older adults. When the body is dehydrated it can give the perception of
hunger, when in fact, it is actually in need of hydration.
Dehydration is even present when its cold out and you
are playing a winter sport or running. Due to
the cold you don't notice how much fluids your body is
losing.
Electrolytes are minerals, such as
potassium, sodium, calcium and magnesium, that carry an electric charge
to help the body function at optimum performance. Electrolytes can also
help regulate your body’s acid-base balance.
Electrolyte drinks are useful in overcoming
dehydration and is effective for body re-hydration after exercise. It
helps promote a healthy lifestyle – at any age.
