Electrolytes for Mental Health and Overall Wellness!

I am a big proponent of attending to our basic needs to support mental health and wellness. Our foundational survival needs are air, water, food, shelter, and sleep. If our basic needs are not being met, we will suffer physical, mental, and emotional symptoms. When we are struggling, it’s important to address foundational needs as part of treatment.  

There is newer science that supports drinking water alone may not be enough to stay hydrated. Especially more active folks or those on restricted diets may require water and electrolytes to hydrate. According to Robb Wolf one of the co-founders of LMNT:

“When people dial in electrolytes, they feel better almost immediately: better energy, mental function, sleep, athletic performance, and more.”

It was recommended to me by my chiropractor and functional medicine doctor to increase my electrolytes intake. Consult with your doctor about whether electrolytes may benefit you.

LMNT is a brand I trust, it’s clean, has a science supported formulation, and has a good reputation in the market. If you want to give it a try, here’s a referral link for a LMNT FREE SAMPLE PACK with any purchase. As the owner of my gym says, “Hydrate to be great.”
