What are Electrolytes and why are they so important?

3/5/2015

Electrolytes refer to minerals in your body that have an electrical charge. 
Some minerals, especially the macrominerals (minerals the body needs in relatively large amounts) are important as electrolytes.  Magnesium, sodium, potassium, chloride and calcium are some of the most important electrolytes.

Why are Electolytes so important?

To function normally the body must keep fluid levels from varying too much in the areas of the body that contain fluid: fluid in the cells, fluid in the space around the cells and in the blood.

Electrolytes help maintain normal fluid levels in these areas because the amount of fluid an area contains depends on the amount of electrolytes in it. If the electrolyte concentration is high, fluid moves into that area. 
If the electrolyte concentration is low, fluid moves out of that area.  To adjust fluid levels, the body can actively move electrolytes in or out of cells.  Thus, the electrolytes in the right concentrations (electrolyte balance) is important in maintaining fluid balance.

The cells in your body rely on electrolytes to control cell membrane stability and to carry the electrical charges needed for muscle contractions caused by nerve impulses. They allow us to perform all the 'bioelectrical' functions such as moving, heart-beating, thinking and seeing. Without electrolytes, the cells in your body couldn’t communicate with each other or perform these essential functions.

Electrolytes are critical in allowing cells to generate energy, maintain the stability of their walls, and to function in general. They generate electricity, contract muscles, move water and fluids within the body, and participate in myriad other activities.

Adequate function of the nervous, cardiac, digestive and muscular systems all depend on a proper balance of electrolyte levels. 

Electrolyte Imbalance

Both normal body function, and athletic performance, are severely compromised if adequate levels of electrolytes are not present, especially in the heat.

An inadequate diet and/or excessive loss of bodily fluids are the most common causes of electrolyte imbalance. Prolonged sweating, diarrhea or vomiting can increase your risk of developing an electrolyte imbalance. 

Symptoms of an imbalance include: including muscle spasm, cramping, lethargy, twitching, numbness and weakness. Side effects that are more serious include convulsions, nervous system disorders and bone disorders.

Magnesium - Super Electrolyte

Every organ in your body requires magnesium. This nutrient helps regulate the levels of other minerals, such as calcium, potassium, zinc and copper. 

Unfortunately, Magnesium and other minerals are depleted by modern farming practices as magnesium is not replaced in the soil.

How to get your Magnesium Levels Up

The Superior Qualities of Transdermal Magnesium 

Transdermal preparations are the new wave in effective, uniform and safe absorption through the pores of the skin. 
  • People vary greatly in their ability to utilize  typical oral formulations yet they generally absorb minerals quickly and effectively through the pores, especially the soles of the feet. 
  • A significant advantage is a perfectly tailored dosage for every individual at the particular point in time of ingestion, since the body ceases to absorb natural substances through the skin when optimal internal levels have been reached. 
  • All factors considered, transdermal preparations are the simplest, most direct, safest and most cost-effective mineral supplementation available today.
