Sodium & Potassium: The Forgotten Electrolyte Balance

from Black Iron Radio · host Black Iron Nutrition & Training

Electrolytes don't start and end with tossing some sodium into your water and hoping for the best. Brooke, Sabrina, and Lauren talk about the sodium-potassium balance that helps hydration do its job. They break down why sodium gets all the attention, why potassium is usually the missing piece, and how this balance affects energy, recovery, cramping, performance, and how you feel day to day. They also get into why so many people are under-eating potassium, why more water is not always the answer, how athletes' needs can differ from the general population, and what to watch for if your hydration strategy is falling flat. From salty sweaters to supplement marketing to practical food swaps, this one covers the stuff people usually miss.
