About this listen

You think dehydration is just "drink more water"? Try again. We're talking about the fluid you lose through your breath right now, the third spacing that traps water where your body can't use it, and why IV potassium can literally stop a heart if you push it too fast. Magnesium, calcium, and sodium are the forgotten electrolytes and the weird physical signs that expose them. This is fluids and electrolytes, told like a story instead of a lecture.
