Water first, habit second
Most people benefit from starting with a consistent water routine before adding anything else.
- Drink a glass on waking.
- Keep a bottle visible at your desk.
- Pair water with meals and workouts.
When electrolytes can help
Electrolytes may be useful with heavy sweating, heat exposure, or long training sessions.
- Hot climates or sauna days
- Long endurance workouts
- Higher sweat rates or salty sweaters
Keep it simple
Some mixes are high in sugar. If you’re choosing a product, read the label and match it to the need.
- Start with half serving to assess tolerance.
- Don’t “stack” multiple electrolyte products.
- If you have medical conditions, check with your clinician.
Wellness cue
If you get headaches mid-afternoon, try water + a short walk before coffee.
"Hydration works best when it’s boring and automatic."
