I need more H20 is said when you are thirsty. You know when you need a glass of water and you just down it in one sitting. Then you know you are so thirsty to the point of dehydration, in the need of electrolytes. Electrolytes may be new to you, or you already are drinking it. Called Gatorade, we drink lots of that in the summer months or when you’re doing sports activities. That is the go-to drink, and why cause it has electrolytes. Our body is missing them since we sweat it all away.
Now, you can easily buy some tablets in your pharmacy, just ask the pharmacist about it. I find them easier than buying the Gatorade. But I recently found some electrolyte powder I love, found through Amazon. Just simply mix with your water and drink. I feel great after that.
Do you find yourself buying to much from the store. How about getting some water from this great little water system, it makes it safe to drink for you. And it looks pretty on your counter also.
Can You Make Your Own Electrolyte Drink
Yes, you can. Basically, your body is needing some salt. Just a tiny bit of salt, no need to go crazy with it.
- 2 c.water
- squeeze of lemon
- 1/8- 1/4 tsp of Himalayan Sea Salt
- couple tsp raw honey to sweeten.
Or something even more simple– 1 tsp of table salt to one liter of water and mix. This is for the electrolytes.
Now, I would rather make some of this in my home. Then having to run to the store when I am already dehydrated. Cause I already don’t feel well, to begin with.
When you think about it all this could of been avoided if I just drank more water. Before doing the activity where I would lose some sweat. I know we should but we never do. We are always told it’s good for you and you should drink some every day. Do we listen??? No, sadly we don’t-but we should.
Adding Electrolytes
- try adding a tiny pinch of Himalayan salt to your H20
- drink coconut water
- ginger
- having some watermelon
- or some over-the-counter hydration solutions
How Can I Get Electrolytes

- eat avocado

- drinking fruit juice

Flavoured Water
Have you ever thought, you are getting so tired of drinking water, and just don’t know if you are able to drink more of it at all. Hows about trying to flavor it? Add a slice of cucumber to it or a slice of lemon. Or even buy some flavor squirts to put in your water. Or even make some fruit syrup for your water. There are many ways to kick up your water even more, by adding 2 or 3 different fruits into your glass. Or even use frozen fruit or even frozen fruit in an ice cube, and add to your water and let it slowly infuse in your water when it melts.
You Still Feel Dehydrated
Have some fruit juice or an electrolyte freezie, yes these are made. Make sure from now on that you drink enough water, before you get to this point of dehydration. Taking all the steps to get more water in you. Cause you don’t want to be saying I need more water.
You can also have cold soup for lunch, have some fruit juice with your breakfast. Even sip on water all day in a glass on your desk. Or even better is a bottle that is marked with the amounts of water you are drinking. So if you really are in need of a quick fix for your not drinking enough H20, go ahead and try making your own electrolyte drink. See if it makes you feel better, if so then you know you were dehydrated.
Make sure To Always Drink H20
Drink some water when you wake up is good for the heart. And let’s say that it is a start to the amount of water you need to drink that day. We all need a certain amount of water a day, just to not be dehydrated. A good habit that we all need to have is to stay healthy and happy. If you stay in check with the amount you need to drink each day and keep doing it. You won’t find yourself saying I need water.
