I’m not eating and I need to keep my electrolytes up. I’ve been trying different drinks and there pretty much all awful. The best I’ve had so far is pineapple coconut water. The worst is Powerade Zero fruit punch.
It seems like whatever stuff they put in there in these drinks is the problem because many of them have this horrible bitter taste they try to hide with flavoring.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
And yes, I know Brawndo has electrolytes. Very droll.
Coconut water, definitely. I like the kind with turmeric and ginger in it.
If someone is very dehydrated though, you want oral rehydration solution, which everyone with a kitchen should know how to make:
If you have them, also add some other electrolytes (or have the dehydrated person eat a banana, which contains potassium bicarbonate):
I’m not a nutritionist by any means, but I was under the impression that coconut water is a mild laxative. Not sure if that’s the case with commercial products though.
