Welcome to my mommy's podcast.

0:04.7

This podcast is brought to you by Element, and this is a company you might have heard me talk about before,

0:10.4

and I really love their products because proper hydration leads to better sleep, it sharpens focus,

0:16.1

it improves energy, and so much more.

0:18.5

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

0:23.7

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

0:29.2

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

0:34.3

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

0:38.2

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 our cells. Element was created

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

1:27.1

blood pressure,

1:28.2

regulating digestion, and proper fluid balance, keeping skin hydrated, which is a big one that I feel

1:32.8

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
