Dr. Sean Gimbert:
What was that? What? Oh, that’s a great question. You want to know what he just asked me? How to stay hydrated? Let’s just answer that now. So, how do we stay hydrated? We don’t want our discs to dry out, we don’t want our muscles to become tight, we don’t want to feel stiff in the morning. So what are we gonna do? We’re gonna start with some good hydration.
My ideal hydration routine that I go through in the morning is we’re going to go right away and replenish some fluids and some minerals. So we don’t want to just drink a glass of water because as we breathe out, as we’re sleeping, we’re gonna lose minerals, especially salt. So our current recommendations are two grams of salt per day. I more closely align with four grams of salt per day. That’s my own belief. I actually have more salt in my diet than the average person because those trace minerals we’re just not getting them from a lot of our foods. So that’s why I add it directly to my water in the morning.
I’m going to add about a gram, half a gram if you’re more sensitive to it. And that is also gonna be combined with lemon water ideally. Lemon water is going to have good vitamins like magnesium and potassium in it, and the salt is gonna be good for replenishing those minerals that we lose. That in turn with the water is gonna help your cells become re-hydrated after you sleep. Try that out. Three simple ingredients: water, sea salt (Himalayan sea salt is great, any kind of sea salt will work though), and lemon water. Those three together, you’re on a great start for your day. Hope you learned something. See you on the next one.
