Very true. Everyone's been talking about sports drinks, which generally have enough sodium *if* you drink them as directed, but no one's mentioned sodium by name. It took me literally decades to learn to take in enough sodium, and to recognize the symptoms when I haven't. Now I'm afraid I'm getting too much ... why I'm thinking of seeing a sports nutritionist. No idea how to tell, without blood tests or actual symptoms.

I have found that gu roctane, which has more sodium (and other stuff) than regular gu, is worth the higher price. I feel much better on hot days than I used to, since I started using it.
