I recommend adding cucumber slices or even better, juiced/blended cucumber. Cucumber has more magnesium, calcium and potassium than lemon.

Iodized salt is fine no need to scare people about what salt they use

Guys and gals, for all of you that worry and argue which salt is better, here's what you can do to understand that it makes no difference on the scale that we're talking about:

Buy (not needed to buy, actually just go to your supermarket and compare nutrient labels) a pack of table salt, a pack of sea salt and a pack of himalayan salt. Check the nutrients label and pull out your pocket calculators. That's right, it is mainly sodium and chloride (hence the chemical notation NaCl). The amount of calcium, magnesium, potassium and etc. is usually less than 1% per 100g, it is just a slight trace of them.

If you eat 1kg of salt, you'll get a bit less than 0.2g of calcium, 0.07g magnesium, 0.08g potassium (varies a bit depending on salt type, I used Celtic Sea Salt for example but yeah...) which is nowhere near a justification to worry about salt type + good luck surviving that much salt intake. Salt (whatever type you prefer) is to provide sodium and chloride to your body and thats it (okay, okay taste too 🤤).

If you want other electrolytes, turn to other substances and products. You don't go to the club to sleep, you don't go a restaurant to workout, you don't go to the office to watch movies, you don't eat salt for calcium, potassium and magnesium. I know the examples may not be bright, and that you can workout in a restaurant or binge watch your fav show in the office but thats what you'll be mainly doing there. The idea is what matters here, don't take it too literally 🤡😂

Have some common sense, just because a nutrient is mentionned on a product, as the food regulations require it to be listed, doesn't mean it is rich in those nutrients. Check the ratios per 100g, they're openly available on the labels of the food you're buying and it is not a secret to anybody. Peace ✌️🙏😇

Celtic sea salt, best rehydrating, most different minerals of all salts

[jayfoster]

My doctor told me to stay away from table salts but seasalt is fine and pink salt

Suggestion
Cold water kills the digestive fire.
Always drink at room temperature or tepid to warm-hot. 👍😜

Lemon has potassium and magnesium so does orange juice . But in low amounts.

[philllesta]

Do not use COLD WATER.. room temperature is fine.

[lethalmamba]

Thank you for this I’m a basketball player and it’s hard to find drinks with electrolytes ❤️❤️

[Yadkin]

How much potassium is in the juice of a lemon?

[edwardwilliammorris]

Table salt and sea salt have the same chemical quality so either is good 👍

[CWAPXIII]

Bro gets the pump any and everywhere💀that’s the part that’s so inspiring to me

[philipjdry]

Epson salt or ionized salt, smaller amount of sugar too. Best results warm water mix just before bed

[digiac]

Get yourself some magnesium powder or pills to dissolve in the mixture

[RYumang-lqcu]
