I concur about coconut juice. When I suffered from severe dehydration, it was the only thing that got me back. Now I use it preventatively before, during, or after intense exercise. It is even used in IV's for severe dehydration because it has the perfect balance of electrolytes. It tastes good and none of the fructose etc. of sports drinks. there are several brands you can buy at stores such as Henry's, Jimbo's, Whole foods etc.

You can take coconut water as you like. There are no limitations. Coconut water is rich in minerals, a medicine for Ulcer, mildly diurectic, internal flusher.
What I am saying is Freshly Extracted Tender Coconut water. Not canned
Watch this video how coconut water extracted and drunk. Coconut water is a regular nourishing drink in Tropical countries: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lIZ-czba3O0

Dizziness Remedies...Coconut Water!
I've been dealing with dizziness for the past three weeks or so and I know that it is an electrolyte imbalance for me, although in others it could be dehydration! Trying to find the right ratio of minerals is tough. Since I have candida, I cannot do the typical sports drink or anything, although I heard of one that does not have sugar that the pharmacy recommends that starts with an E.
That said, what I use is coconut water which is the juice from raw coconut. It has the best balance of electrolytes so I always keep a cup in the refrigerator and an extra coconut as well.
If anyone has an excellent electrolyte replacement recipe please let me know!!!

I am from a tropical country and coconut juice/milk/shell can do a lot to mankind from skin products to medical remedy and I dont recommend you drink from canned coconut juice, the best is plastic or box so it remains as pure as possible. I export a lot of it on orders and airfreighted so the transit is short.

In response to Marea, who asks about a sports energy drink for her son... I have this suggestion. Coconut water. This is a natural, highly nutritive substance which I feel will meet your son's needs quite nicely. It is, quite possibly, the perfect after sports beverage. It is easy to come by providing you can secure a coconut, hammer, and screwdriver. Enjoy.

Electrolyte replacement has helped me. The one I use has potassium, calcium, magnesium & sodium. You can add to water or anything else. No sugar, etc. I think there are other products that are very similar.
