Fasting and Electrolyte Balance: What You Need To Know

When you fast, you might feel dizzy or tired because your body loses important minerals called electrolytes.

These minerals, like potassium and sodium, help your muscles and nerves work right.

Fasting in the heat or for long periods can make you lose electrolytes through sweat.

To feel better, drink things like coconut water or nimbu paani, which have electrolytes.

Eat foods with electrolytes too, like bananas and nuts, when you are not fasting.

If you feel very sick, see a doctor.
