I used the sodium recommendations in Nancy Clark's book and found that using a combination of regular Gu, Gu Roctane and Gatorade to meet her recommended level made me feel much better during and after long rides on hot days.

But then I also eat bread on a regular basis, which makes me different from just about everyone else on this forum.

Soups and dried meats (like beef jerky) are high in sodium. Maybe you could make some yourself with more salt than is in the food you usually eat.
