Why is it that electrolytes are supposedly better at hydrating the body better than regular water?
In: Biology
As far as regaining water they don’t work any better than water. But if you lost a lot of water through sweating you also lost a lot of salts. To replenish sodium/magnesium/potassium you need to eat food or drink mineral water/electrolyte drink, just drinking plain water won’t do.
