&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;THE BELOW IS FOR AVOIDING DEHYDRATION OR VERY MILD DEHYDRATION&lt;/strong&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;THIS IS NOT GOING TO HELP WITH MODERATE TO SEVERE DEHYDRATION&lt;/strong&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;IF YOU&amp;rsquo;RE CONCERNED SEEK PROPER MEDICAL CARE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2 id="critical-notes-and-information"&gt;Critical Notes and Information&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;You &lt;strong&gt;MUST&lt;/strong&gt; include a glucose (sugar) source for proper uptake of water and electrolytes (salts primarily)
or the solution will be non-effective.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Potassium is an important electrolyte, not just sodium (salt).
If possible, include a source of potassium as part of the recipe.
See the ASU recipes for examples of getting potassium.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Potassium can be skipped but a food source for replenishing potassium is important if more than mild dehydration occurs.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;If using coconut water, make sure it&amp;rsquo;s unflavored, unsweetened, etc. I use Vita Coco Coconut water &amp;lsquo;pressed coconut&amp;rsquo;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Use fresh fruit(s) for best effects ; juices tend to be processed heavily and may not have a good level of
citric acid present which is part of the WHO recommendations for a hydration drink ingredient&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h2 id="salt-source"&gt;Salt Source&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assume &amp;lsquo;salt&amp;rsquo; means one of the following
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Himalayan pink salt&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Sea salt&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Kosher, iodized salt&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Himalayan pink salt is the least processed
followed by sea salt
followed by standard table salt (get kosher, iodized salt if going with standard salt)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Sodium levels for the above salts are about equal
and the crystal size adds the most variability to sodium level obtained
(bigger crystal == less sodium)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Practically all 3 forms of salt can be swapped freely&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
