What to do when the weather starts to stress your body out? Staying hydrated and keeping electrolytes balanced is critical, especially when you are exposed to the heat.
It is tempting to reach for a bottle of Gatorade, but there are definitely healthier alternatives to the popular electrolyte drinks. These ‘sports’ drinks often contain only one or two of the minerals your body needs to rebalance your electrolyte levels. Instead, you’re getting added sugars, artificial colors, or artificial sweeteners.
Plain water is essential for rehydrating, but doesn’t replenish electrolytes, and over hydration can in fact create more of an imbalance by diluting sodium in the body.
Meehan Formulation’s Alkaline Formula contains the key minerals and salts in just the right ratios that your body requires, especially as the temperature climbs. And it leaves out the things you don’t need, like calcium and added sugars.
“Alkaline Formula is critical for helping to prevent heat stress as extreme high temperatures continue to affect so many people around the globe. The minerals and salts it contains are vitally important in helping maintain electrolyte balance and to help prevent dehydration.” – Kevin Meehan, Integrative Practitioner and founder of Meehan Formulations
Minerals in Alkaline Formula:
Potassium– This essential mineral plays a crucial role in maintaining water and acid-base balance. With over 95% of potassium residing in our body’s cells, it is undoubtedly one of the most important electrolytes.
Magnesium– Second only to potassium in concentration within our cells, magnesium is vital for tissues with critical functions in energy production. Its presence is invaluable, especially during demanding conditions such as physical exertion during hot weather.
Sodium– An essential nutrient that regulates various biological processes, including pH balance. The importance of sodium cannot be overstated, as even our minimum physiological daily requirement is 500 mg.
Aspartic Acid– A non-essential amino acid that aids in the metabolic release of ammonia from the liver. By promoting efficient buffering of ammonia with the electrolyte supply from our formula, it supports your body’s natural detoxification processes.
12 Biochemical Cell Salts– These salts contribute significantly to our overall health and vitality. The structure and proper functioning of our organs rely on these essential salts, underscoring their significance.
