Hydration Tips
The association of nausea and dehydration go hand in hand, so you’ll want to ensure you are hydrated, not only with good H2O but also sports drinks that provide electrolytes. Water is always good, however, sports drinks with electrolytes will not flush out the salts and potassium your body needs when training. Our body is a lean, mean, water running machine– meaning, our bodies are mostly 72% water, another 8% is a combination of chemical compounds and the remaining 20% is bone and solid tissue. Therefore it is very important that you consume the right amount of fluid intake to help your overall health and fitness. However, unlike camels, the human body cannot store water; it must be replaced each day as part of your daily balance.
