Thanks, Dan.
I found that interesting and quite surprising.
That Sodium-Potassium pump has to work.
I remember salt pills being quite important in early football.

Please note that brownpop is just loaded with sodium and potassium. Also note that I have never, ever collapsed during a marathon, and I've watched quite a few of them.

But, oddly enough, over-consumption of brown pops can lead to many of the same outcomes: feeling dazed and confused, nausea, grogginess, weight gain and, in extreme cases, even death. Best to limit your consumption, even if you're only watching the race
|
You don't have those symptoms if you set the flow rate of the pump properly.
