Episode 71 - Does taking sodium during exercise improve my hydration? | Dr Alan McCubbin
Manage episode 397379156 series 2986264
Does replacing the sodium lost in sweat actually influence our thirst, our drinking and our hydration? If so, how much is enough? And do we need to measure our sweat sodium losses to give us the answers? In this episode Alan describes his recently published study where ultra-runners replaced 100% or 0% of their sodium losses during 5 hours of running in the heat, and what happened.
The study:
