I want to fast and I’m told I need electrolytes, my question is: what the FRICK are they? How do I get them? Are there electrolyte drinks I can buy in my local supermarket? The only drink I know that mentions electrolytes is that Prime hydration/energy stuff that Logan Paul and KSI are selling. Someone help plz

fasting is a meme and it means your diet will fail
normal weight people do not fast
Is CICO is not a meme then bow can fasting be a meme you idiot?
Fasting is caloric restriction.
Fasting makes the body creates cetones which means higher metabolic rate.
Fasting help people learn to not eat
to be a lower weight means you need to have a diet that keeps you at that weight, forever. Fasting is just a distraction from learning to adopt a daily diet that keeps you at the weight you want. Again, normal skinny people do not fast on a regular basis.
>Fasting help people learn to not ea
Fasting has demonstrably promoted binge/purge behavior.
Fasting almost always fails
You're actually fricking moronic, like letting you live alone is unethically irresponsible
Electrolytes are a kind of salt, no, you're (you specifically) not smart enough to add the proper amount of salt to water
0 calorie Gatorade is the easiest source
You're fricking moronic.
The body knows how much electrolytes it needs.
Your hunger is sometimes just a cry to electrolytes. So doesnt matter is someone is "smart" enough to make the right mixture or not.
The body also likes to induce binging behavior. Our instincts have not changed to accommodate the plenty of civilization. It says "I need this, better all for extra, just in case".
Alternate argument, what %saline solution do you need right now? You're not perfectly hydrated, so you need some, what is it? Your stomach is not intimately connected to your eyes or your measuring cup.
>knows how much electrolytes it needs.
It knows "sufficient, none please" and "insufficient, more now". That's it.
theyre what plants crave
It took so many posts before someone said it, sad.
haha frick sakes I was gonna post that
I'll volunteer an actual answer instead of sperging like the above anons. They primarily regulate water content in the body and also secondarily regulate muscle contractions. The biggest ones are sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium. There's also the less influential ones which include chloride, phosphate, and bicarbonate. You can get them easily from mineral water if you're fasting and there are electrolyte powders that taste like a fruit flavored salt bomb if you're really low. They're some of the most important minerals in the human body and if you don't get in enough of them you'll become a dehydrated and chronically cramping mess of a man. That being said why are you fasting in the first place? It's good to help train yourself to be more disciplined but it's not anything magic dude
When I was at band camp I ended up super low on electrolytes. My abs contracted and would not release. Being a nieve 15 year old I had no idea what was wrong with me and so I asked an instructor. He told me to eat a banana or drink Gatorade. I got a Gatorade and my abs released very quickly after that.
We got a primer on proper nutrition and hydration the next day, and years later in AP Bio I learned about how sodium and potassium are responsible for muscles contracting and relaxing respectively. Knowing how the body works is cool.
Just get some nu salt and some extra magnesium and you're good.

Most sports drinks should have them, don't buy some overpriced Logan Paul shit
Electrolytes is something found in american drinks. Thats why rest of the world is in pisspoor shape, theres no such thing legitimately advertised anywhere else and taken seriously.
Fasting is great, don't listen to the homosexuals here. we have a whole general on it, maybe try asking there.
potassium, magnesium, calcium and natrium pretty much
you can get diarrhea medication, something like Elotrans in Germany, or something sports branded.
its both basically diy powerade
