Summer = extra hours of play! While young kids are active, they don’t realize their bodies require extra nourishment to keep up with the summer heat. A great way to keep kids hydrated is by including electrolytes in their diet. What are electrolytes exactly? Find out more below!
The Benefits of Electrolytes for Kids
Electrolytes help to replenish, hydrate and restore healthy energy levels in the cells, heart and muscle tissues. It’s especially beneficial to your body during strenuous summer activities, illness, and when traveling. Doctors often recommend parents add electrolytes to a child’s diet when they’ve lost fluids from vomiting and diarrhea.
When your body is low on electrolytes you may feel weak, have muscle spasms, or have a change in blood pressure. Everyone can actually benefit from electrolytes in their diet, especially active individuals who spend time outdoors or workout regularly.
Little Remedies has developed the first and only product available that combines the benefits of probiotics and electrolytes for kids. Probiotic Plus Electrolytes, which offers the dual benefit of maintaining flora (good bacteria) in the digestive system while supporting hydration, is recommended for children 12 months and up. It includes specially formulated electrolytes that comply with the World Health Organization standards to support natural hydration.
Probiotic Plus Electrolytes only contains necessary ingredients to help keep your little one happy and healthy – that means no artificial flavors, dyes or parabens. The box includes 12 individual packets in berry flavor. To use, pour 1 packet into 6oz of cold water and stir until dissolved. The berry flavor is mild and enjoyable for young children to drink, and I appreciate that the individual packets make it convenient for travel and use at home.
I love that Little Remedies has created this new dietary supplement to help kids not only stay hydrated, but promotes a healthy digestive tract.
