Proper hydration

During these hot summer months, hydration, heat stroke prevention and hyponatremia are critical issues for the competitive athlete.

I use an excellent product called "Endurolytes" to assure this; feel free to inquire regarding details and availability of the product.

Additionally, a complex sports drink, in my case "Revenge Pro", is readily available. Inquiries accepted. Malto-dextrins designed to exit the stomach quickly, are the main ingredient to address the ongoing needs for complex carbs, during exertion, to include appropriate electrolyte minerals.

Simple Gatorade, availble in bulk from wholesale warehouses such as Costco, and Sam's Club may well be the best 'bang for the buck'

Hyponatremia is the state in which the blood stream has become too dilute, and causes the same symptoms as dehydration; lightheadedness, lack of muscle coordination, nausea, heat stroke, confusion, and all the associate problems of dehydration. This condition is caused by drinking TOO MUCH WATER; all the electrolyte minerals have been washed out!
