Do You Really Need Electrolytes?

Angus & Graham discuss electrolytes, their experiences with them, some rather unexpected and amusing. Electrolytes are charged minerals like sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium that support muscle function, nerve signals, hydration, and heart rhythm. While a balanced diet usually provides enough, losses from sweat, illness, or low-carb diets may require smart supplementation.

Natural foods like bananas, salted watermelon, and bone broth are effective sources. Overdoing supplements can be harmful, so it’s best to prioritise real food and hydrate wisely based on activity and need.
