What is Sodium
Sodium is essential for maintaining fluid balance in your body, especially after fluid loss from sweat, heat, or illness.
As the main mineral found outside your cells, sodium plays a vital role in holding onto water and keeping your hydration levels steady. It helps regulate the balance of fluids in your bloodstream and tissues, ensuring your body stays properly hydrated.
Sodium works closely with key hormones like aldosterone and ADH to maintain extracellular fluid volume—the fluid outside your cells that supports circulation and organ function.
In your kidneys, sodium helps drive water reabsorption through specialised channels, helping your body recover lost fluids more efficiently. This process is especially important after intense sweating, exercise, or dehydration caused by vomiting or diarrhoea.
In short: sodium helps your body hold onto the water it needs, so you can stay energised, balanced, and functioning at your best.
