How Electrolytes Actually Work (And Why You’re Probably Missing Them)
You’re drinking water all day — but are you actually hydrated?
If you’ve ever felt tired, foggy, or drained even after hitting your water goals, there’s a good chance your body’s missing something essential: electrolytes.
In simple terms, electrolytes are the minerals that turn water into hydration. Without them, you’re just pouring liquid through your system — not absorbing what you need to think clearly, move efficiently, or feel energised.
What Are Electrolytes?
Electrolytes are charged minerals — like sodium, potassium, and magnesium — that power your body’s key systems:
- They balance fluids inside and outside your cells
- Support nerve signals and muscle function
- Regulate blood pressure, hydration, and energy
Why You’re Probably Missing Them
Even if you're drinking loads of water, these habits could be depleting your electrolytes:
- Caffeine: Diuretic, increases magnesium loss
- Stress: Burns through potassium and magnesium
- Sweat: Even light exercise causes sodium loss
- Alcohol: Disrupts fluid balance and drains key minerals
Signs of Electrolyte Imbalance
- Brain fog or afternoon energy dips
- Muscle cramps or twitching
- Headaches or low mood
- Poor sleep quality
How Electrolytes Help You Hydrate Better
Electrolytes help your body retain and use water efficiently. They boost water absorption, reduce excessive urination, and keep your brain and body firing smoothly.
