5 signs you need more electrolytes
Electrolytes help with hydration by ensuring the body can actually absorb and use the water you drink—preventing dehydration in the presence of sufficient water intake.
Electrolytes are a buzzy word, and somehow it seems like we all need more of them. But is that actually true? Here’s what you need to know.
What are electrolytes?
Electrolytes are just a term for minerals that carry an electric charge. This includes sodium, potassium, magnesium, chloride, phosphorus, and calcium. Many people fall short on getting the minerals they need daily.
Electrolytes’ role in hydration
Electrolytes help with hydration by ensuring the body can actually absorb and use the water you drink—preventing dehydration in the presence of sufficient water intake.
Signs that you need more of these minerals
- Your muscles cramp: Electrolytes aid in proper muscle function, and you likely need more potassium, calcium, or magnesium, if your muscles are feeling weak or crampy.
- You have some brain fog: Electrolyte imbalances can impact the brain, and may lead to mild headaches or confusion.
- Low energy: Low electrolyte levels can affect nerve function and how well your body produces energy—leading to feelings of fatigue, weakness, or general tiredness.
- You feel nauseous after a workout: You lose electrolytes in sweat, and if you lose too much without proper replenishment during or after exercise, you may feel queasy.
- You feel dizzy: Sodium and potassium play a big part in regulating blood pressure, and changes in blood pressure can lead to feelings of dizziness.
-
Eat more fruits and vegetables: Foods like bananas, oranges, avocados, spinach, sweet potatoes, and tomatoes are all good natural sources of potassium and magnesium.
-
Snack on Greek yogurt: This is a great source of calcium (many fruits and vegetables fall short on this mineral). 1 cup of Greek yogurt provides 20-30% of the Daily Value for calcium.
-
Consider an electrolyte supplement: For some, this may just be a comprehensive daily vitamin. There are also plenty of electrolyte powders you can lean on.
