Spoiler: Your cells don’t throw a party when you drink salt water. In fact, they might go into panic mode.
We’ve all heard the advice: “Stay hydrated!” But have you ever wondered why plain water sometimes doesn’t cut it? Or what’s actually happening at the cellular level when you mess with salt balance?
Let’s dive in — salt shaker first.
Salt Water + Cells = Not the Vibe
Imagine your cells are like little water balloons. They’re surrounded by a membrane that carefully balances how much water goes in and out.
Now, enter salt water — especially high-sodium water like seawater.
When you drink it, here’s what happens:
-
Salt pulls water out of your cells.
-
Your cells shrink and dehydrate (science calls it osmosis).
-
Instead of hydrating you, it actually makes you more thirsty.
Yep, salt water = cellular sabotage.
But Wait... Aren’t Electrolytes Salts?
Great question. Yes, electrolytes like sodium are technically salts. But here’s the difference:
-
Seawater? Too salty. No balance.
-
Mizu Lab electrolytes? Just right. Balanced for hydration.
Our bodies need electrolytes to:
-
Move water into cells properly
-
Help nerve and muscle function
-
Regulate blood pressure and pH
The key? Proper concentration. You need a carefully measured blend, not a salt bomb.
