#556 Are Electrolytes worth the Hype?

Episode 556 Published 3 months ago
Description

Electrolyte packets are everywhere — but are they actually doing anything for most of us, or is it just really good marketing on top of salt water?

We also get specific about who genuinely benefits from electrolyte supplementation
