Replace Your Electrolytes With Your Own Drink!
Quick & Easy

Do-it Yourself Electrolyte Drink
Written by Gayle
The word "Electrolytes" has been around so long that it's easy to think that we actually know what they are. We know they are important, especially during or after exercise, and when we have been ill. Electrolytes are electrically charged particles that help the body function normally. These particles include calcium, magnesium, potassium, and sodium. They help with muscle function, as well as keep water in the right balance inside and outside of the cells.
You don't have to reach for the highly processed, overly sugared commercial sports drink. This recipe also uses coconut water, which is a natural source of those four minerals, so it's a great base for this natural sports drink.

Ingredients

16 oz of Raw Coconut Water (I used Harmless Harvest)
1/2 cup organic freshly squeezed orange juice
1/2 cup organic freshly squeezed lemon juice (I used Meyer lemons, which are sweeter than many other lemons)
1-2 TBSP raw organic honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar
1/8 tsp Himalayan Pink Salt

Directions

Blend all of the ingredients together until the salt is dissolved, then pour into a jar. Chill until needed. It can be refrigerated for up to 1 day.
When you've worked up a healthy sweat, make sure you reach for something healthy to replace your electrolytes!
