Welcome to my mommy's podcast.

This podcast is brought to you by Element, and this is a company you might have heard me talk about before, and I really love their products because proper hydration leads to better sleep, it sharpens focus, it improves energy, and so much more.

But hydration is not about just drinking water because being optimally hydrated,

a state called uhydration is about optimizing your body's fluid ratios. And this fluid balance

depends on many factors, including the intake and excretion of electrolytes, which many people

don't get the right amounts of. Electrolites are charged minerals that conduct

electricity to power your nervous system. I talk a lot about nervous system on this podcast. They also

regulate hydration status by balancing fluids inside and outside of ourselves. Element was created

with a science-backed electrolyte ratio of 100 milligrams of sodium, 200 milligrams of potassium,

and 60 milligrams of magnesium with no sugar. Since electrolytes are a key component of hydration, here's what happens when we get our electrolytes dialed in. We have more steady energy, improved cognitive function, suffer fewer headaches and muscle cramps, we can perform better for longer, and especially the support fasting or low-carb diet,

because when we stop eating carbs, like during a fast, the absence of insulin allows the kidneys

to release sodium.

So replacing that lost sodium with electrolytes can help you feel good on a fast.

Since element is zero sugar, it also doesn't break up fast.

Electrolites are also important for maintaining blood pressure,

regulating digestion, and proper fluid balance, keeping skin hydrated, which is a big one that I feel like often gets missed, and so much more.

I feel like proper electrolytes is a missing piece for a lot of people, and I love elements new canned drinks,

which are sparkling water with all the same ratios of minerals

I just talked about, and they are delicious. You can check it out and learn more at drink element.com
