Bottom line

Electrolytes are essential for hydration and muscle function, especially for endurance athletes. However, excessive sodium and potassium can pose health risks for certain individuals.

Safety & trade-offs
Known concerns, timing, & interactions
Cardiovascular

Excess sodium can raise blood pressure — monitor if hypertensive or on a sodium-restricted diet

Interaction

Potassium supplementation interacts with ACE inhibitors and potassium-sparing diuretics — risk of dangerous hyperkalaemia

Muscle cramps & hyponatremiaHydration / performance in heat

Research shows that sodium supplementation helps prevent hyponatremia and maintains fluid balance during prolonged exercise. While the evidence is strong for athletes, individuals with specific health conditions should exercise caution.

Muscle cramps & hyponatremia
·
High

Sodium intake, both at high and low doses, has been found to be associated with health and performance issues in athletes. Besides, there have been theories that an electrolyte imbalance, specifically sodium, contributes to the development of muscle cramps (EAMC) and hyponatremia (EAH).

Dose:
Hydration / performance in heat
Endurance athletes; workers in heat · RCTs
High

Sodium supplementation prevents hyponatraemia in prolonged exercise; maintains fluid balance & reduces cramping.

Dose: 500 mgDuration: Acute / during exerciseTiming: during exercise
Sodium is the critical electrolyte for rehydration; potassium & magnesium support but less critical acutely.
