    Alternatively just make snake juice, the ingredients aren't that expensive for all your electrolytes.

    Just be careful about the potassium, that’s the one thing your body can’t easily flush.

        You are aware you’re able to reject treatment up until you drop unconscious and they believe they have to save your life, right? As long as you’re awake and not suicidal you can literally just walk away.

        It’s some concoction for days where you fast so you get some of the electrolytes that is expelled from your body as waste.
        I guess one could think of it as “mineral water” because that’s what it contains: just enough stuff for your cells so you don’t cramp etc.

        Aye, I just make sure to eat plenty of spinach and bananas before and after a small fast (I do at most 2 days, usually just 1). Apparently baked potatoes are also rich in potassium, I never knew until yesterday.

        Good shout! Best price I could here in Denmark is 149 DKK for 100 capsules though ($23.42 USD / €19.96 EUR), and it says the recommendation is 1-3 capsules an hour? That seems like a lot, but maybe that’s for elite sport and not a couch potato like myself heh.

          The dosage I use if I’m fasting is just 1 caplet an hour as needed, with a max of 10 per day. As a couch potato myself, I rarely exceed 5-7 on a heavy day. Probably 3-4 typically, depending on how much water I’m drinking/expelling. If I’m feeling off or sense a cramp coming, I’ll take one.
