Salt

[OakLeaf]

Am I the only one who just can't keep enough sodium in my body? I just hate taking electrolyte supplements all the time, but as liberal as I am with the salt shaker at meals, what processed foods I eat tend to be pretty low in sodium (protein powder and nut/seed milks, primarily), and food just tastes too salty to me way before I'm getting enough. I've tried drinking less water and just wound up dehydrated ... it's just in my nature to sweat a lot. I've read that sweat contains anywhere from 1 to 2.5 grams sodium per liter ... and when you're sweating two liters an hour that adds up. Primarily sodium, but calcium and magnesium too - less so now that I'm eating more vegetables, though.

I'm probably just whining, but if anyone has any suggestions for more palatable less processed ways to get more electrolytes, help!
