I've seem these Internet threads go back and forth about some mineral or sugar supplement but ignore the most basic principle of all. To exercise and feel well afterwards - you need to keep yourself hydrated. If you are concerned about your well being - then weighing yourself is the starting point of any inquiry.
Assuming you have some mineral imbalance without even understanding what your "healthy" body weight should be seems silly to me.
However, my comments are routinely ignored and disparaged. Perhaps using a scale is too inconvenient for most readers.
I read about the scale and how much you should lose in weight during a ride. I was thinking of getting one to keep in my car, or swiping the one out of our bathroom.
