It rings a bell....

Temperature change, both low and high can be autonomic involvement.

When my temps get too low or high something salty with fluids helps.

I get the flu-like feeling too. Electrolytes, like vitawater or Gatorade work good.

Thanks. I'll try some Gatorade. Never thought of that, but it should help.

I like coconut water because it contains less chemicals. I have access to fresh coconuts and I believe it has plenty of potassium and more sodium then the grocery store brands. I'm not sure how it compares to the other electrolytes found in Gatorade

Lightbulb
Gatorade is very low in potassium:
All it is sugar water.
here is a chart:
https://andlau88.files.wordpress.com...1/gatorade.jpg

Gatorade regular has only 30mg of potassium in an 8 oz serving.

Compare to V8... Which is 800+ mg for the regular and about 1000mg for low sodium version. (one can)

RDA for potassium is 4,500mg a day to 4,800mg
