    Electrolytes

    Does anyone have a good full electrolyte sup and does anyone know the ideal amounts you're supposed to ingest daily if each electrolyte?

    You can look up the RDA of electrolytes, but you may require more if you sweat a lot or your body processes them quickly.

    Honestly, with a good diet you can cover your electrolytes unless there's an underlying medical condition. Too much electrolytes, particularly potassium, can be as bad/ worse than too little

    Eat white potatoes with skin on, eat the skin and all. Sweet potatoes, avocadoes, yogurt, sunflower seeds, kidney beans, yogurt.....the be list is extensive.

    Make sure you include all 5 electrolytes. Most people simply think sodium and stop there.

    So look for foods containing:

    Calcium.
    Chloride.
    Magnesium.
    Phosphorus.
    Potassium.
    Sodium.
