Why is it necessary to replace the minerals lost when sweating?

Let us remember that magnesium plays a key role in proper muscle functioning, in muscle contractions, it also intervenes in our energy metabolism and helps reduce tiredness and fatigue.

Along with potassium, which is another mineral that we lose through sweat and that is also involved in muscle function, magnesium is key to the proper functioning of our metabolism. And this is why it is extremely important that, in long-term training or intense work, in addition to replenishing fluids, replenishing water, you also replenish mineral salts.

Finally, something that is always good to remember is sweat does not imply burning or oxidizing fats, but when we sweat we are only losing water, liquid, and these salts that we are talking about.

Therefore, it is a mistake to believe that by sweating we will be losing weight. In reality, we are mainly losing water, which we will quickly re-incorporate later when we rehydrate through the intake of fluids and foods that also contain fluids.

For this reason, the recommendation is that we help our body to carry out these processes naturally. This means not forcing, not trying to increase sweating in an artificial way, for example, by overdressing ourselves. And on the other hand, it does not prevent sweat.
