But on a serious note if you are drinking lots of water but it’s coming out as clear piss and you still feel dehydrated you need more water electrolytes

Also space your drinking out, chugging too much in a small amount of time can kill you from water toxicity or the brain swelling

Edit: corrected dangerous advice to proper advice

Also maybe talk to your doctor. Chugging a lot of water constantly and still being thirsty is a potentially a sign of diabetes.

Or just drink a bunch of vodka. That will help you piss.

I am not a doctor and this is not medical advice!

If this happens to you, it’s time to check your electrolytes! Cramping can be a sign of low potassium. Most healthy people should be aiming for 2g+ of potassium per day.

Popularly known food sources of potassium (like banana and avocado) aren’t super great in a pinch. Coconut water, or beverages like Electrolit / Pedialyte, do a better job. For your regular dietary intake, there are lots of foods better than banana and avocado at getting you the potassium you need.

This post brought to you by the fucking awful leg cramps I used to get when eating a low carb diet.

My remedy has always been to eat a banana every once in a while and drink a glass of water before bed.

Bananas aren’t that good of a source of potassium considering how much sugar they also contain. A kiwi has more potassium but also a ton of vitamin c, fiber, and enzymes that improve digestion of proteins. If you want a lot of potassium, a medium potato has twice as much potassium as a banana for a similar amount of calories, but from starch instead of sugar.

There’s always W.H.O. ORS

Be careful though: Some of them are so tasty, you might end up overdosed, with kidney pains.

They also contain a lot of sugar. Sugar improves water intake for rehydration, but that’s not ideal if you’re drinking it often. I’d recommend Nuun tablets instead, which only have 1 gram of sugar.

Potatoes are underrated sources of potassium. One medium potato has 920mg of potassium for 160 kcal.

Most of the time, leg crams are intentional. Not really worried about the few that are unintentional as long as they go away on their own or can be walked out.
