Electrolytes - Who are they for? When do you drink them? Is homemade better than commercial drinks?

Who Needs to Drink Electrolyte Drinks?

Electrolyte drinks are essential for people who:

*Engage in Intense Exercise: Athletes or individuals who participate in prolonged, vigorous activities like marathon running, cycling, or high-intensity interval training.

*Experience Heavy Sweating: Those who sweat excessively due to hot weather conditions, intense physical activity, or certain medical conditions.

*Have Illnesses: Individuals suffering from illnesses that cause dehydration, such as diarrhea, vomiting, or fever.

*Are in Recovery: People recovering from surgery or illness where hydration levels need to be carefully managed.

*Endure Physical Labor: Workers involved in strenuous physical labor, especially in hot climates.

Best Time to Drink Electrolyte Drinks

*During Extended Workouts: Consume during prolonged exercise sessions exceeding one hour to replenish lost electrolytes.

*After Intense Physical Activity: Drink post-exercise to aid in recovery and rehydration.

*During Illness: When experiencing symptoms like vomiting or diarrhea to prevent dehydration.

*In Hot Weather: During periods of extreme heat when excessive sweating is likely.

*Before and After Surgery: To maintain hydration and aid in recovery, as directed by a healthcare professional.

Top 5 Reasons Commercial Drinks Are NOT Good to Drink

*High Sugar Content: Many commercial electrolyte drinks contain high levels of sugar, which can contribute to weight gain and negatively impact overall health.

*Artificial Ingredients: They often contain artificial colors, flavors, and preservatives that may not be beneficial for health.

*Cost: Commercial electrolyte drinks can be expensive compared to homemade alternatives.

*Excessive Sodium: Some commercial drinks have high sodium levels, which may not be suitable for everyone, particularly those with hypertension.

*Lack of Nutrients: Commercial drinks may lack other essential nutrients found in more natural or homemade options.

Top 10 Reasons Why Homemade Electrolyte Drinks Are Good to Drink

*Control Over Ingredients: You can control the quality and quantity of ingredients, ensuring no artificial additives or excessive sugars.

*Customizable Recipes: Tailor the recipe to fit specific dietary needs and taste preferences.

*Nutrient-Rich: Homemade drinks can include additional nutrients such as vitamins and minerals from natural sources.

*Cost-Effective: Generally more affordable than purchasing commercial electrolyte drinks.

*Hydration: Provides essential hydration with the right balance of electrolytes.

*Natural Flavors: Use natural fruits and herbs for flavor, avoiding artificial additives.

*Lower Sodium: Control the amount of sodium to suit individual health needs.

*Environmentally Friendly: Reduce plastic waste from commercial drink bottles by using reusable containers.

*Allergy-Friendly: Avoid allergens or unwanted ingredients that might be present in commercial options.

*Health Benefits: Incorporate ingredients like coconut water, which is naturally rich in electrolytes, or honey, which has additional health benefits.

There are many homemade electrolyte recipes available on-line. Here's just one to try.

Hydration is important on many levels. Water is best resource. Don’t forget watermelon, celery and cucumbers in your diet.

If exercising over 60-90mins continuously in the heat replace minerals with homemade electrolyte drink.

If skin goes dry seek help immediately. Get out of the sun and cool off.

How are supplements different?

Some are synthetic and whole food

Here are 10 differences between synthetic supplements and whole food supplements:

1. **Source**: Synthetic supplements are chemically synthesized in a laboratory, while whole food supplements are derived from real food sources.

2. **Nutrient Complexity**: Whole food supplements contain a complex matrix of nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, enzymes, phytonutrients, and other cofactors, whereas synthetic supplements often contain isolated nutrients.

3. **Absorption and Bioavailability**: Nutrients in whole food supplements are typically more readily absorbed and utilized by the body compared to synthetic supplements, which may have lower bioavailability.

4. **Synergistic Effects**: Whole food supplements provide nutrients in combination with other compounds found naturally in food, which may have synergistic effects on health, whereas synthetic supplements lack these natural synergies.

5. **Digestibility**: Whole food supplements are generally easier for the body to digest and assimilate due to their natural food matrix, while synthetic supplements may be harder on the digestive system.

6. **Nutrient Balance**: Whole food supplements provide nutrients in balanced ratios as they occur in nature, while synthetic supplements may disrupt natural nutrient balances.

7. **Nutrient Integrity**: Whole food supplements preserve the integrity of nutrients in their natural form, whereas synthetic supplements may contain artificial additives, fillers, or binders.

8. **Long-Term Health Effects**: Whole food supplements are believed to support long-term health and wellness by providing nutrients in their natural context, while the long-term effects of synthetic supplements are still debated.

9. **Quality Control**: Whole food supplements may have stricter quality control measures to ensure the integrity and purity of the ingredients, while synthetic supplements may vary in quality depending on manufacturing processes.

10. **Cost**: Whole food supplements can seem to be more expensive than synthetic supplements due to the higher cost of sourcing, processing, and manufacturing real food ingredients. However, Standard Process supplements are not only effective they are budget friendly.

Open those blinds! LET THE SUNSHINE IN!
Let’s talk about VITAMIN D ☀️☀️☀️

Vitamin D, often called the “sunshine vitamin,” is a crucial nutrient for overall health. It’s produced in the skin in response to sunlight exposure, particularly UVB rays. Additionally, it can be obtained from certain foods like fatty fish, fortified dairy products, and supplements.

To maximize absorption, it’s important to consume foods rich in vitamin D alongside healthy fats, as it’s a fat-soluble vitamin. Additionally, consuming foods rich in vitamin K2, magnesium, zinc, and calcium can enhance vitamin D absorption and utilization in the body.

Here are seven benefits of vitamin D:

1. Bone Health: Vitamin D aids in the absorption of calcium and phosphorus, crucial minerals for maintaining strong bones and preventing conditions like osteoporosis.
2. Immune Function: It plays a vital role in modulating the immune system, helping to defend against infections and reducing the risk of autoimmune diseases.
3. Mood Regulation: Adequate levels of vitamin D are associated with improved mood and may help reduce the risk of depression and mood disorders.
4. Muscle Strength: Vitamin D supports muscle function and strength, which is essential for overall mobility and preventing falls, especially in older adults.
5. Heart Health: Some studies suggest that vitamin D may help lower blood pressure, reduce the risk of heart disease, and improve overall cardiovascular health.
6. Cancer Prevention: There’s evidence to suggest that adequate vitamin D levels may reduce the risk of certain cancers, including colon, breast, and prostate cancer.
7. Brain Health: Vitamin D receptors are found throughout the brain, indicating its importance in cognitive function and reducing the risk of neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s.

Ensuring sufficient vitamin D intake through sunlight, diet, or supplementation is crucial for maintaining optimal health and well-being.
