Calcium is present in some mineral supplements and vitamines. It can be found too in foods like spinaches, soja, sardines, octopus, tofu and many dairy products.

C) Drink a lot of liquid.

Even the human body can resist without food for long time, it doesn’t happens the same with drinking. Two or three days without liquid intake can be fatal. That can give you an idea of how much important is water for our body.

Of course water is the most important ingredient in human body. Due to transpiration, we loose liquids so we need to replace the lost fluids in our organism so as to avoid serious problems that could even arrive, in some extreme cases, to death. Hence the importance for people doing exhausting exercises, to drink a lot of water.

In some cases, when the effort is very high, only water may not be enough. Then drinking sports drinks will help to replace, not only the lost water but also the additional mineral salts and carbohydrates that our body looses when sweating. Especially for people practicing sports fitness those drinks can be very useful.
