Your Hangover Could Be From Low Electrolytes
Lots of electrolytes are lost while you drink. This can lead to a hangover that can destroy your productivity.
Why should you replenish after drinking alcohol?
Alcohol is a diuretic (increased urination), this causes flushing of electrolytes in order for the body to keep intra, and extracellular fluids in balance.
Here's what you loose on an average night of drinking
- Magnesium – 20-50mg
- Potassium – 200-400mg
- Sodium – 100-200mg
- Calcium – 50-100mg
The actual level of depletion are approximate and change slightly based on prior hydration, age, sex, and level of drinking.
Evident Electrolytes can replenishing what was lost and help prevent hangovers from electrolyte loss!
