ORS

A huge part of hydration is consistent intake as well as electrolyte balance. If you weren't consistently drinking plenty of water the two days previous, you're not going to be as well hydrated as you might expect when drinking a gallon today. You also need to have electrolytes to help the water go

Have her try drinking a specific type of electrolyte drink called an oral rehydration solution (ORS), which is significantly superior to generic “sports drink” electrolyte drinks. They come as powders that have to be mixed with a specific volume of water. DripDrop is my favorite brand, but Liquid IV

It’s a completely different population so it may not be very helpful depending on what your needs are, but in my sports nutrition rotation, we were trialing different ORS for the athletes at one point. We used DripDrop, LMNT, and Fluid Tactical ORS and the FT was the one I liked the best. It had a b

Happy New Year to you and Mr D! I've been on Mounjaro for over 2 years now. (Similar to Wegovy but not the same) I have fatty liver, and my Dad passed from MASH cirrhosis, so I take that seriously.

There are many other brands out there. I've tried Drip Drop and Liquid IV. Drip Drop doesn't offer e

I’m going through it right now and mine is definitely triggered by anxiety or stress. In fact I’m wearing a holter monitor right now. But, because I have to push a button and write everything down when it happens just proves it happens because of it. Especially because one I have one obsess about it

i can’t speak for you of course, but after i got my ileostomy, my appetite and even the way i feel hunger changed. it could just be a “normal” thing for your body to do after having half its digestive system cut off. i would worry if you start experiencing any other symptoms such as uncontrollable n

I attempted to row for 24hrs (only made it 20hrs), but I’ve also done my fair share of marathons. My recommendation for a marathon is just pick up a candy you like and have plenty of water available. Most rowers don’t fuel during rows, so your stomach can probably only handle 30-60g of carbs/hour an

LMNT or Drip Drop for longer runs. Nuun is fine for shorter distances. Most people overthink this though. For runs under an hour, water is usually enough unless you're a heavy sweater or it's very hot. Electrolytes matter more for 90+ minute efforts.
