Salt 🧂
People mistake salt as some sort of toxin for the body. When really if you’re active, you need to seriously work on replenishing salt in your body.
  • Salt is not scamming them directly but people do counter-productively believe it is damaging to health
  • We lose a bunch when working out via sweat
  • Salt encourages us to drink & hydrate more
  • Less purified salts are better, I.e. Himalayan and contain more electrolytes & minerals than the ground table salts we’re all accustomed to
  • Magnesium is something we’re all deficient in and salt can help
Average electrolytes lost in sweat (1 hour of exercise)
Sodium: 1,200 mg Chloride: 1,725 mg Potassium: 140 mg Calcium: 40 mg Magnesium: 8-10 mg Iron: 0.16-0.63 mg Copper: 0.4 mg Zinc: 0.4 mg Iodine: 52 mcg Selenium: 40 mcg Chromium: 7.5 mcg
