Absolutely, but only when you need them. They’re not a daily essential for most people, but they’re a secret weapon for recovery. Think of them as the fire extinguisher of your hydration tool kit—handy to have, but you don’t want to carry it everywhere.
The real trick? Listen to your body. If you’re feeling dizzy, have dark yellow pee, or your muscles are twitching like you’re doing a robot dance, then yes—grab an electrolyte source. If you’re just thirsty, drink water and maybe eat a banana (potassium party!).
