Does anyone else just eat their electrolytes... dry?

Hey! Im almost through with day 3 of my fast, firs post here but I’ve definitely been lurking.

So yeah does anyone else do this? I just kinda throw back 1/4 tsp cream of tarter throughout the day and wash it down with water (not really gross just has an… interesting not so good flavour) and then ill just have my pile of salt and lick at it while I drink water (this I actually enjoy lol).

Im really hoping no one delivers me the news that this way of doing it will give me stomach cancer or kill me or something lmao

Answer

Well if it works for you, i don’t see a problem.

It depends on the form that the electrolytes are i guess.

My electrolytes are in the form of effervescent tablets to be thrown on 500ml water, so i don’t think that having that reaction on my stomach is a good idea.

Answer

I do that. I’ve tried to add it to my water and it makes me gag every time I take a sip. The only way I can get it down is to do 3 or 4 “shots” of electrolytes throughout the day and immediately rinse with water.

Answer

I am still trying to understand electrolytes. But yea, I just take a pinch of salt a couple times a day with water. I don’t think I could make a drink, it wouldn’t be pleasant. I have however, started adding 1/4 a teaspoon of salt to my coffee though.
