I didn't wake up as dizzy today, but every once in a while I get thrown one of these days, so can't be too sure if its the experiment or not.
I have high blood pressure....so although it seemed a salted electrolyte drink helped out, it probably wasn't a great idea. I only salt loaded for a few months.....As noted, I find it very difficult to determine what really is best.

I would suggest you drink a lot of water when you take those salt pills!
