The use of hydration tablets in sport, aid in incorporating extra minerals and electrolytes into the daily routine. It’s important to choose a product that contains a scientifically balanced blend, which serves to hydrate and replenish effectively. O.R.S Hydration Tablets supply ordinary drinking water with important electrolytes, minerals and vitamins which aid in fast, proven hydration.
You lose electrolytes like potassium, chloride and sodium through sweat, so O.R.S Hydration Tablets aim to replace those electrolytes and minerals lost through exercise. Optimum hydration is key to great performance, as is maintaining a well-balanced diet. Nutritionally dense foods can help to provide a range of minerals and electrolytes. Sodium and Chloride are electrolytes that serve to maintain fluid balance within the body and also support the functioning of cells. Sodium Chloride can be found in; cooking salt, cheese and protein. It’s abundant in readily available foods like nuts, crisps and sauces, so chances are you’re getting plenty of sodium chloride already. Potassium supports normal cell function and regulates blood pressure. Good sources include bananas, avocados, spinach and sweet potatoes. Magnesium supports bone and teeth development, as well as keeping blood pressure low and muscles functioning properly. Dark green leafies, vegetables and legumes like beans, spinach, lentils, whole grains and avocados are also great sources of Magnesium. Calcium keeps bones and teeth strong, plus muscles and enzymes working effectively. Dairy products like milk, eggs and cheese are excellent natural sources of calcium, as are beans and asparagus.
