You dont need potassium- sweat losses are all sodium, Oral rehydration

have to put the salt in the drink either. Foods can contain plenty of
sodium, and usually do.

Drink what tastes refreshing to you. I find plenty of ice is most
important.

Mark,
there is a theory that has been getting stronger over the last 30
years that we are all getting 3 to 4 times the salt we should have and
1/2 to 3/4 of the potassium. With that in mind I'm not going to add
salt to anything and I'm looking for potassium. That's just what seems
to be working for me, I feel great with that combination and less good
with water only.
