What’s the best way to replenish your body post-class? MINERALS.
Why? Minerals run our bodies. Everything from making energy from our food to hormone production and detox to making enzymes that help us digest our food.
AND, we are lower in minerals than ever before thanks to our depleted soil health and high stress levels.
Start with sodium and potassium (the recipes below each contain rich, whole food forms of each; your work is done for you!)
Minerals work in SYNERGY and therefore repleting these two first is of utmost importance for your adrenals (your stress organs). If you’re craving salt or having muscle cramps during/post class you can be SURE you are deficient. Sip on one of these asap!
A quick plug in the name of digestion:
- Sodium is essential for optimal levels of stomach acid, which helps with protein digestion.
- Potassium has insulin-like effects on our cells aka it helps turn our food into energy!
