What are Electrolytes?
Muscles and neurons rely on the movement of electrolytes to send signals inside, outside, and even in between cells. The most prominent electrolytes within the body include, Sodium, Potassium, Calcium, as well as others. As you age, you become more susceptible to an electrolyte imbalance within the body, leading to numerous health issues. [1]
Potential Benefits of Electrolytes
Supplementing electrolytes into your diet is necessary for nearly all bodily functions; therefore, analyzing the health risks of having an electrolyte imbalance would be effective to determine the health benefits of electrolytes.
Some symptoms of an electrolyte imbalance include an irregular heartbeat, weakness, bone disorders, changes in blood pressure, as well as many others. Oftentimes the kidneys are able to flush out excess levels of electrolytes if there is too much in the bloodstream. However, if not enough electrolytes are in the bloodstream, there is no simple way for the body to fix it. [2] Because alcohol is a diuretic, it causes the body to urinate more than it typically would. As a result, electrolytes within the body are lost. Additionally, alcohol naturally kills electrolytes, thus the combination of the two can lead to immense dehydration and electrolyte imbalances.
Therefore supplementing electrolytes into your drinking habits can help prevent or alleviate a crippling hangover before it even occurs. [3]
