Electrolytes are water based solutions of different minerals that exist in acids, bases and salts and are used as electrically transmittal agents. Yes, you read right, electrical !

Aside from all the elements our bodies need in order to function normally, there is another element we should think about which is the electrical tension inside our bodies that enables transmission of nutrients into specific cells.

Called an electric tension (and muscles, blood and nerve cells are considered electric tissues), Electrolytes facilitate the transmission of ingredients from and to our cells and control the pressure inside and outside the cells. This affects the amount of water in the body and its absorption, the elasticity of the blood and the behavior of nerve cells.
