Jiu-Jitsu requires healthy muscles. If you are training tonight, we recommend a juice that relieves cramps and protects against muscle fatigues. The ingredients are rich in potassium, which is a mineral that the body needs to work normally. It helps nerves and muscles communicate. According to the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, potassium is a mineral that, among other things, helps your muscles contract, helps regulate fluids and mineral balance in and out of body cells and helps maintain normal blood pressure by blunting the effect of sodium. Potassium may also reduce your risk of recurrent kidney stones and possibly bone loss, as we get older. Guidelines issued by the Institute of Medicine of the National Academies of Science encourage adults to consume of at least 4,700 milligrams of potassium every day. That’s almost double what most of us actually consume. Potassium is found in a wide range of foods, especially fruits and vegetables.
