    Yea it’s called electrolytes, dude. Even a tiny bit of salt in the water will help a lot. It isn’t a “craving”; you just sweat out a bunch of salt and straight water will dilute you even further.

    And I don’t think anyone who’s a big hydrohomie, myself included, will make fun of you for smashing a gatorade in a heatwave. I love plain water but I’ll do that if I really need something now.

      While electrolytes definitely help, it’s literally any flavoring. And again even with tiny amounts added (think hints of flavor) I’m good.

      I used the hot weather drinking to simply emphasize. Even in cold weather plain water doesn’t usually satisfy the craving to drink for me.

        I like how you were taught something cool, and instead of choosing to learn, you rejected it and continued living in delusion.
