Rehydration is absolutely vital, especially for those who live active lifestyles. For oral rehydration, the new gold standard is Amway’s Nutrilite PhytoPowder. No other drink on the market offers the benefits of Nutrilite PhytoPowder, and the fact that it comes in convenient foil stick packs means you can drink it anywhere there is drinking water. PhytoPowder is truly a rehydration solution like no other.
It is no secret that the human body is mostly water, but science has shown that when we sweat, drink too much alcohol, or when we have diarrhea, we lose not just water but the ability to retain water. This is because the electrolytes that allow the human body to retain water are in fact water soluble. The water we lose as we sweat heavily also washes away electrolytes as we lose it.
This is why electrolyte drinks are more effective for oral rehydration than water alone. The infusion of electrolytes quickly restores the body’s ability to maintain the correct percentage of water, something that we literally need in order to survive. However, it has been known for some time that apart from water and electrolytes we also lose water soluble vitamins, such as Vitamin B Complex, and Vitamin C.
