Info on Electrolytes and Cramps

Info on Electrolytes and Cramps

We have found that due to the amount of water that CODE RED rebels consume, we often need to be diligent about replacing electrolytes. This will likely take care of many of your symptoms. Here are some thoughts. ALSO here is a video Cari did on electrolytes so please watch for more information: https://vimeo.com/424184911
  1. Salt salt salt! (We prefer Redmond Real Salt, found at www.coderedlifestyle.com/realsalt. Use the code, CODERED15, for 15% off your order). We are not a low-salt lifestyle. Add 1/8th of teaspoon of Redmond Real Salt to each bottle of water that you drink. Here is a great video about salt that is worth watching. https://drhyman.com/blog/2017/11/03/downside-low-salt-diet/
  2. Consider an electrolyte replacement. We love Electrashred by Unmatched. The ingredients are all-natural and super clean. You can order it at www.coderedlifestyle.com/unmatched. Enter the code, CODERED, at checkout for 10% off. (Please note that Electrashred is the only product endorsed by us for Rebels in weight loss mode.)
  3. For cramping, you can try foam rolling and/or gentle stretching. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DzSU2FiFKTM
  4. This leg cramp formula taken before bed also helps some clients. https://amzn.to/2NFv71c you can get it anywhere (Walmart/Walgreens/etc)
  5. A hot bath before bed while soaking in Epsom salts is helpful as well for cramping.
  6. If you are still concerned, see your doctor. Seek medical advice if you become faint or have heart concerns.
