Elete Electrolyte Supplement

Whether you’re looking at health from a Traditional Chinese Medicine perspective or seeking guidance from Western medicine, you will find that proper hydration is considered essential to your wellbeing. However, drinking water alone isn’t enough to keep you hydrated. In fact, drinking too much water can result in hyponatremia — a low level of sodium in the blood.

Sodium is just one of several electrolytes that are required for your body to function. Electrolytes help maintain optimal fluid balance at the cellular level, enable muscles to relax and contract, and support the transmission of nerve impulses across the body. Even mild dehydration, resulting in a lower-than-normal level of electrolytes, can have a dramatic impact on performance, attentiveness, and overall health.

Electrolyte supplements are a popular way to boost hydration during intense sports activities, but they aren’t just for athletes. Dr. Wu recommends all patients make Elete, an electrolyte supplement available at Wu’s Healing Center and elsewhere, part of their daily fluid consumption. This simple addition to your water bottle supports hydration, muscle function, energy usage, and heat tolerance. You may also find that your mind is better able to focus, and your spirits lift when your body is properly hydrated.

What makes Elete Dr. Wu’s recommended supplement?

• One serving of Elete contains 45 mg. magnesium, 30 mg. chloride, 20 mg. sulfate, 125 mg. sodium, and 130 mg. potassium — essential electrolytes that can be lost when you sweat.
• It is all natural, kosher, non-GMO, and vegetarian.
• It does not contain sugars, flavoring, calories, carbohydrates, or artificial ingredients.
• It can be added to water or any beverage.

Wu’s Healing Center stocks Elete in small bottles that are easy to use and travel with. Other sources provide Elete in larger quantities. Dr. Wu’s recommended dosage: 9-10 drops of Elete per liter of water.
