    It matters if you work outside in the summer months like I do. I can’t physically hydrate fast enough some days. So I end up a little worse each day of the week. Something that hydrates better starts to sound pretty good. For 99% of people? Just drink water.

    Edit: I just read the article and milk is (one of) the answer(s). I tell my coworkers every year during heat illness training that if I go down and they give me milk I’m coming up swinging.

        Just gonna pop in here to yell at the clouds. I hate the name “Liquid I.V.” for a powdered sports drink. It’s none of the things. It’s a dry-ass powder that doesn’t go in your veins. Fuck. And it’s presumably meant to evoke the emergency dehydration scenario of world-class athletes dying on the sideline, hooked up to saline drips to keep their muscles from cramping inside-out. Everything about the branding is crap.

        The product itself is fine though.

            “Nothing gets my head back in the game like some Solid Oral.” “I didn’t believe the hype, but my teammate gave me Solid Oral and now I won’t settle for less.”

            Sells itself, it’s perfect.

        Salty snacks is my go to. I don’t really like liquid IV or Gatorade etc. I’ll drink a liquid IV if it’s really hot, but I’m big on plain, flat water.

          I guess I’m screwed. I can’t have too much salt or I get dizzy/vertigo. Stupid Menieres disease
