Electrolytes play a vital role in maintaining homeostasis within the body. They help to regulate myocardial and neurological function, fluid balance, oxygen delivery, acid-base balance and much more. Electrolyte imbalances can develop by the following mechanisms: excessive ingestion or diminished elimination of an electrolyte or diminished ingestion or excessive elimination of an electrolyte. People suffering from bulimia or anorexia are at especially high risk for an electrolyte imbalance.

Electrolytes are important because they are what your cells (especially nerve, heart, muscle) use to maintain voltages across their cell membranes and to carry electrical impulses (nerve impulses, muscle contractions) across themselves and to other cells. Your kidneys work to keep the electrolyte concentrations in your blood constant despite changes in your body. For example, when you exercise heavily, you lose electrolytes in your sweat, particularly sodium and potassium. These electrolytes must be replaced to keep the electrolyte concentrations of your body fluids constant.

This complete and balanced electrolyte formula can be used to improve symptoms of dehydration. Athletes may benefit from regular use of Electrolyte Essentials. Chronic stress can lead to low levels of one or more of these electrolytes especially magnesium and potassium. Symptoms may include fatigue, lethargy, dizziness, cramping or twitching, tachycardia, arrhythmia, heavy legs, irritability and/or noise sensitivity. Magnesium deficiency has been associated with early hearing loss. D-Ribose was included in this powdered formula because of its importance for cardiac function, exercise recovery and energy production. The taurine in Electrolyte Essentials is a regulator of electrolyte flow in and out of cells and will support maximal assimilation. Children can take Electrolyte Balance during the flu or any illness involving diarrhea or vomiting to prevent dehydration. Mix Electrolyte Essentials into any beverage, sports bottle, or put it in water and place in ice rack to make into grape popsicles. Electrolyte Essentials is sugar-free and gets its sweetness from small amounts of natural xylitol and stevia. The natural grape flavoring gives it a great grape taste.
