January Menus at Elementary School

Today in Anatomy and Physiology, our students tested different drinks to see which ones conducted electricity and therefor would be better for our hearts in conducting the cardiac signal. We tested: Sprite Water 2 different gatorade Propel Poweraid salt water Salt water conducts electricity where the others failed. Sole Water is a mixture of pink Himalayan salt and water and it is a better electrical conductor than sports drinks or soda or water. During exercise, the body is depleted of necessary electrolytes. Those electrolytes are necessary for your heart to conduct the electrical impulse from the SA node located in the Right Atrium of the heart to the rest of the heart for an effective beat. Sole Water is also much cheaper than sports drinks and has zero sugar or color additives.
