NEWAGE-Ionic Sports Water-1000ml x 15 bottles

Electrolytes are chemicals that form electrically charged particles (ions) in our body fluids. These ions carry the electrical energy necessary for many functions, including muscle contractions and transmission of nerve impulses. Many bodily functions depend on electrolytes. Optimal performance requires a consistent and adequate supply of these important electrolytes.

We lose electrolytes when you sweat. Consistent replenishment of electrolytes is just as important as the fuel you consume and the water you drink during exercise.

What Do Electrolytes Do

Electrolytes are involved in a wide range of functions. They are particularly important for maintaining hydration levels, as the movement of sodium and potassium in and out of cells determines how much water our body retains or flushes out. Our nerve cells need these slightly charged particles to help carry electrical impulses around the body. This is important for a healthy nervous system, good mental health and proper sleep. It also vital for muscle function, as electrical signals need to be able to travel across muscles to tell them when to relax and contract. Without the correct electrolytes our muscles may become weak and may experience cramps, twitches or spams. we may also experience disorders such as anxiety or sleep problems, as well as fatigue and joint and bone disorders. An imbalance will also affect your hydration levels and acid-alkali balance, but can also affect our respiratory system and even immune system. In fact, the whole body depends on this delicate balance of electrolytes to keep it functioning properly.
