Hydration and Sodium: A Key to Endurance Performance, with Sports Dietitian Kristen Davis
Sodium chloride, commonly known as salt, is a crucial nutrient for athletes. It helps maintain proper water balance within the body. When the balance between water and sodium gets disrupted, an endurance athlete's performance can rapidly decline. Additionally, dangerous situations can arise if this imbalance isn't restored.
In this episode of the TRACER podcast, registered sports dietitian Kristen Davis tackles key questions for endurance athletes. These questions include: How much sodium is needed during exercise? Is plain water enough in hot weather? How can we determine our individual sweat sodium loss? And what are the signs of low sodium?
