The ScoopYou Sweat More Than You Think
Sweat might seem like a nuisance, but it’s actually a healthy part of how your body works. Understanding how it impacts you and knowing how to replenish what’s lost can help keep you healthy. As the temperatures rise or your workouts get more intense, staying hydrated is key. Let’s dive in.
Why we sweat
Sweating is your body's natural cooling mechanism. Whether you're sweating it out at the gym, enjoying a sunny day, or feeling the pressure of a busy week, sweating helps regulate your temperature. It’s a natural response to help keep you cool.
You sweat more than you think
You might be surprised by how much you actually sweat. The amount varies based on factors like activity level, environment, and metabolic differences. But Studies show that during intense exercise or heat exposure a person can sweat 3–4 liters per hour or as much as 10 liters per day. And even without moving around all that much, people may lose a minimum of 3 liters per day.
What we lose when we sweat
Sweat isn't just water, it's a vital mix of electrolytes like sodium, chloride, potassium, calcium, and magnesium. These minerals play key roles in muscle function, hydration balance, and nerve transmission. Electrolytes help move water around in our cells, as well as hold water where it’s needed. Losing them through sweat can lead to dehydration and fatigue.
How to replace what’s lost
We lose important minerals when we sweat, but we can replace them to be at our healthiest. Sports drinks are a great option for replacing electrolytes, however not all sports drinks are created equally. Each one has a different make up of electrolytes. Some offer no potassium or magnesium, and may not cover all your needs. You should also be aware of the high sugar content of many sports drinks.
Products like Quench offer a refreshing solution with a full blend of electrolytes, B vitamins, and organic coconut water powder. Unlike sugary sports drinks, Quench is low in sugar and free from artificial flavors, ensuring you get the hydration you need without the unnecessary extras.
