It's time for the recipe of the week!

We are learning about staying hydrated- especially during this cold and flu season.

🧃 What Are Electrolytes?

Electrolytes are tiny helpers in your body! ⚡
They help:
🧠 Your brain send messages
💪 Your muscles move
❤️ Your heart beat
💧 Your body stay hydrated

When you are sick (or active and sweating 🏃‍♀️💦) your body loses electrolytes.

You can get them from foods like 🍌 bananas, 🥛 milk, 🥣 soup, and 🥔 potatoes.

Electrolytes = tiny batteries that help your body work! 🔋✨
