Mindsip insights from this episode:
Power your cells with mineral-rich Danger Coffee
Danger Coffee is a specific brand of coffee that contains over 50 trace minerals and electrolytes to help power your cells.
Aim for pale lemonade urine to ensure proper hydration balance
Urine that is clear as water is not a sign of health but a sign you are overdoing water without electrolytes, while a pale lemonade color is the ideal target.
Limit water intake during meals to enhance digestion
Drinking a lot of water with a meal can dilute your stomach acid, which impairs digestion and may contribute to acid reflux.
Balance electrolytes to maintain saltwater body composition
Your body is not 60% water but 60% saltwater, which is why drinking plain water without electrolytes can create an imbalance.
Revitalize hydration with mineral-rich water
Most tap and bottled water is 'dead water' because it has been stripped of the essential minerals your body needs for cellular hydration.
Start your day with sea salt water for an energy boost
Drinking a quarter to a full teaspoon of high-quality sea salt in 12 ounces of water in the morning can provide a rush of energy within 15 minutes.
Activate healing with essential oil to switch off stress response
Applying Vibrant Blue Oil's parasympathetic blend behind your ears can help switch off your stress response and shift your body into healing mode.
Avoid mineral-free water to prevent cellular dehydration
Drinking mineral-free water causes your body to flush out sodium and electrolytes, leading to cellular dehydration even as you drink more.
Stay hydrated to combat mental fatigue
Mental work, screen time, and even talking can drain your hydration levels because you lose water by thinking hard and breathing faster.
