hydration during fasts

I was reading this on my fasting app (zero), I'll recap it here

fasting and hydration

20% of our water-intake (normally) comes from food.

we store carbohydrates (as glycogen) attached to water, therefore when you fast or do a keto diet (or otherwise reduce carbs) you will temporarily have a lower bodyweight (specifically waterweight) and it will make it easier to become dehydrated

it's recommended to drink 30-35 mL (AKA 0,3 -0,35 dL or 0,03-0,035 L or 1-1,2 fl oz ) water per kg (ca 2,2 lbs) bodyweight during a fast. (for healthy adults)

electrolytes

you should get them through whole foods, preferably not supplements (unless you're doing prolonged fasts or are prescriped them)

electrolytes include: sodium, potassium, magnesium, zinc and calcium. you should look up recommend amounts, especially if you have other health concerns

symptoms of a deficiency include: headaches, heart palpitations, lightheadedness, muscle cramps, and fatigue. but there are more.

description of the electrolytes:

too little sodium causes headaches and muscle spasms. with prolonged fasts (3+ days) you should increase intake of sodium

potassium regulates fluid in muscles. it's important for nerves and too little can lead to leg spasms.

magnesium is also important for muscles and nerves. with prolonged fasts (3+ days) you should increase your intake of it.

zinc is important for nerves and testosterone production. (not from this article, but I've read it can regulate progesterone, reducing PMS and PMDD symptoms for anyone struggling with that). upper intake limit is 40 mg for adults, you get bad symptoms if you exceed it

calcium is important for muscles and bones. it helps blood function (heart, clotting). you'll probably be fine with getting it from food.

was it the fact im not a child or that i wont send nudes 💀

edit: if you're under 18 and seeing this, please don't respond to these types of people, and block them immediately, i know it can be tempting but please stay safe, there are better ways to make friends that have an ED (and dont preach recovery)
