How do electrolytes help the body?

Electrolytes are essential minerals that play a crucial role in maintaining fluid balance in the body. When we sweat, we lose electrolytes like sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium. These minerals help regulate nerve and muscle function, maintain proper hydration levels, and support cardiovascular health.

When the body is low on electrolytes, it can experience a range of symptoms, including muscle cramps (muscle weakness), weakness, fatigue, brain fog, nausea, and dizziness. Adding electrolytes back into the body through electrolyte supplements or drinks can help alleviate these keto-flu symptoms and promote overall hydration and health.

Therefore, consuming electrolytes is important, especially for individuals who are on a low-carb or keto diet, as they tend to lose more electrolytes due to lower insulin levels.
