Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Consuming fluids with a mix of water and sodium helps to replace the electrolytes lost during exercise and maintain hydration levels. Option A is not always accurate as weight loss can vary depending on factors such as sweating and individual differences. Option B is not recommended as caffeine is a diuretic that can further dehydrate the body. Option D may not be necessary as consuming all the fluid lost during exercise may lead to overhydration.
