Question: Explain the process that takes place when you take a drink high in electrolites, as in how are the electrolites restored?

  1. Hello Molly!I don’t know if you are aware of this but Electrolytes are chemicals that form ions in body fluids. Electrolytes help make sure that specific bodily functions run at their best. If we do lots of sports and we sweat a lot, or even if we puke and have runny poop (diarrhea), we actually lose a lot of electrolytes through these fluids. When we take an energy drink, this is a drink with high amount of different electrolytes, we are supplying our body with these electrolytes and restore our natural levels. The drink based electrolytes are absorbed into our body and restores our natural electrolyte balance. Hope that helps answer your question 🙂

  3. Hey Mollymazz!

    Mia’s aced this one too! Just so you know, electrolytes carry electricity through water! Ions are atoms that have charges on them (they’d be attracted or repelled by magnets). You’re full of tiny charges that carry electrons through your body, and that’s why you need to keep your electrolytes up. : )
