How can a person with diabetes prevent dehydration?

Doodle03 asked:

What does a person with diabetes who works out & exercises each day do for dehydration? If I drink a lot of water my sodium level drops. I keep a low magnesium, chloride, potassium & sodium level & none of the doctors here will tell me what is causing it & how to prevent it.

I think Pedialyte may be good.

Sports drinks (Flavored Water + Sodium ) basically

Call the national diabetes association….

Gatorade has too much sugar. Try sugar free unflavored Pedialyte, and Smart Water, or any fortified unsweetened “sport” water.
