Lemon water is suppose to be quite supportive of the liver.Nursing profession is identified as having the highest risk in terms of ergonomic risk. If you're really hard up, I guess a person can just add some lemon juice to there water, though I am not certain how much useful electrolites are in lemon juice, I'd have to look into that, I might be surprised. Some sports drinks are a total joke, they lace them with enough sugar to make a horse hyper. Sweetened with stevia which I have been told does not provoke any insulin response from the body, which is exactly what I want. I use the pure white stuff so I know it doesn't have any dyes in it. One important bit I came across said that if you're muscles lock up while you are working it's probably potassium you need, but if your muscles lock up while you are resting or sleeping that is probably your body calling for magnesium.Īnother thing I did was add some Biosteel to my work water. Which is no where near what we are suppose to get in terms of our daily intake, so at best I just give it a little boost. I thought, if it helps than why not? I take 1 99mg table every morning. Kalemia is derived from the latin word kalium which is the word they used for potassium and this is why Potassium appears to us on the periodic table as "K".Īs well as the odd muscle lock here and there, my body also had signs of insulin resistance, so when I found out potassium can help reverse insulin resistance that really sold me.

Hyper means too much, hypo means not enough. The medical establishment is allegedly concerned about people putting their bodies into a state of hyperkalemia, which I suppose could be a valid concern.

It is important for me to mention that the legal does per table of Potassium-whatever at least in Canada and likely many other places is 99mg. Which did help a fair bit with the locking muscles. I kind of took the lazy way out and went to potassium supplements. I haven't eaten many of them, by themselves avocados are not exactly easy to get down LOL, but I have made power yogurts with lots of avocado blended into it. As an alternative the avocado was recommended instead. But it was pointed out to me that banana's have allot of sugar in them, namely fructose and fructose tends to decrease bio-availability of potassium. I have heard many people say the Banana is a great foot source of potassium. Muscles locking up, doesn't help anything, especially if you're calling on your body to perform. I was always a big fan of making sure I drank allot of water, because dehydration sucks. I don't think it was elemental potassium or sodium they applied to the frog legs, I think the sodium was sodium-chloride and the potassium was probably some salt form of potassium, maybe like potassium-nitrite. And I have seen videos where they took some frog legs, they sprinkled sodium on the legs first and that cause them to contract, they then sprinkled some potassium on the legs and low and behold that made them expand or let go. I was shaking it, hitting it, willing it to loosen up, eventually it did respond. I remember my wrist/hand locked up on my at one point. There was allot of debris to be relocated. One time when it was pretty hot out we were getting some pretty heavy work done outside.
