Electrolytes Powder

Electrolytes are minerals that, when dissolved in water, get a positive or negative electric charge. They are crucial for a variety of bodily functions, including maintaining a proper balance of fluids in and out of cells, muscle contractions, and nerve signalling.

The human body needs electrolytes —including sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium — in order to function properly. Our electrolytes powder contains all these key electrolytes.

Electrolytes imbalances and deficiencies can occur due to sweating, insufficient diets, vomiting, diarrhea, and alcohol consumption.

Sea Moss

Sea moss, also known as Irish moss is a type of red seaweed that grows predominantly along the coasts of North America and Europe, especially in colder waters.

Recovery: Supports bone health, reduces the risk of stress fractures, and helps muscles relax post-exercise. The interplay between calcium and magnesium is important for muscle relaxation and overall recovery post-exercise.

Magnesium

Hydration: Magnesium helps in regulating muscle and nerve function. It also supports a healthy heart rate which is important for maintaining blood volume and, by extension, hydration levels.

Exercise Performance: Magnesium crucial for muscle relaxation and contraction. The balance between magnesium and calcium is essential as calcium helps with muscle contraction while magnesium aids in muscle relaxation, ensuring muscles work properly during exercise.

Recovery: Magnesium helps in muscle relaxation, reducing soreness and cramping post-exercise. It also aids in energy production which is necessary for recovery.

Minerals

About 57% of people are deficient in mineral intake.

Sea Moss is rich in almost all minerals needed by the body.

These include Iodine, Potassium, Calcium, Magnesium, Zinc, Sodium, Sulfur, Phosphorus, Iron, Selenium, Manganese, Chlorine, Copper, Bromine, Silicon, Nitrogen.

Minerals are crucial for numerous physiological processes and structural functions in the human body.

A deficiency in minerals can:

1. Bone and Tooth Issues: Insufficient calcium, phosphorus, and magnesium can lead to weakened bones (osteoporosis) and dental problems.
2. Muscle Weakness and Cramps: A lack of minerals like potassium, calcium, and magnesium can result in muscle cramps, weakness, or irregular heart rhythms.
3. Anemia: Iron deficiency can lead to anemia, resulting in fatigue, weakness, and paleness.
4. Thyroid Dysfunction: Iodine deficiency can cause goiter (an enlarged thyroid) and hypothyroidism, leading to fatigue, weight gain, and cold sensitivity.
5. Immune Dysfunction: Insufficient zinc or selenium can weaken the immune response, making one more susceptible to infections.
6. Growth and Development Issues: In children, mineral deficiencies can hinder growth and cognitive development.
