Electrolyte Blend Lemon and Natural Peach Flavour

What are electrolytes?

Think of electrolytes as the body's behind-the-scenes star player; they’re charged particles (think sodium, potassium, calcium, and co.) that hang out in your blood and cells. These particles are responsible for a range of functions: they zap messages between your cells, make your muscles contract, keep your hydration game in check, and help your nerves operate. So, whether you're hitting the gym or on a rest day, these electrolytes keep you going. However, as a word of warning, if they become unbalanced, either due to excess exercise or a health issue, it can cause a number of issues.

What do electrolytes do?

Electrolytes are fundamental substances in the human body, fulfilling crucial roles in maintaining overall health. They primarily serve to regulate fluid balance, ensuring that the right amount of water is present inside and outside cells. This equilibrium is essential for optimal cellular function and proper hydration. Electrolytes also play pivotal roles in nerve function, facilitating the transmission of electrical signals between nerve cells and enabling sensory perception, muscle contractions, and various bodily responses. Muscle function, including the heart's contractions, relies on the movement of specific electrolytes like calcium, sodium, and potassium. Additionally, electrolytes help maintain the body's pH balance, regulate blood pressure, facilitate nutrient transport, and support kidney function by filtering and excreting excess electrolytes in urine. An imbalance in these critical ions can lead to a range of health issues, highlighting the importance of maintaining electrolyte balance for overall well-being.

Nutristrength Electrolyte Blend combines defined amounts of electrolytes, carbohydrates, and osmolality values recommended for this type of drink. Hypotonic carbohydrate (CHO)–electrolyte solutions should be drunk whenever there is a need for rapidly replacing fluid as hypotonic drinks are beverages that have a lower concentration of solutes (such as sugars and electrolytes) compared to the body's fluids. These drinks are often used for hydration purposes, particularly in situations where rapid fluid replacement is needed.

It replenishes electrolytes lost during exercise, supplies carbohydrates, prevents dehydration, and can help sustain endurance capacity.
