Coaches Guide to Nutrition: What are Electrolytes?
January 14, 2025
Electrolytes are essential minerals that come in the form of sodium, calcium, chloride, potassium, phosphate and magnesium.
They help maintain fluid balance, regulate muscle contractions, and promote healthy brain activity.
Did You Know: An athlete can lose up to two pounds of sweat (or more) after exercising? That is equivalent to 1,000 mg sodium, 200 mg potassium and 20 mg calcium (all of which are found in chocolate milk).
Encourage your athletes to refuel and rehydrate those lost electrolytes with chocolate milk (a.k.a. Nature’s Sports Drink). This can help reduce the risk of stress fractures and muscle cramping.
