I honestly thought the broth would perk me up and I'd be fine by morning. On day 8 I had a cup of tea and scrambled eggs. I have real salt for just licking when I need it and then a powdered mix (no sugar, no artificial sweetener) of everyday essentials. Similar to an EmergenC but made by Vitacost. Those give you 200 mg Potassium, 225 mg sodium and a bunch of vit and trace minerals. I take 200 mg Magnesium too. I was at home for most of the day so I would down a glass of filtered water every time I was thirsty. The only other weird thing was that on the morning of day 7 I had done a bit of gardening. I planted a blueberry bush, which involved moving a couple bags of dirt and mulch, but really, it was nothing.
What electrolyte powder did you end up with? Maybe because I'm older (62) I need a better balanced drink?
I did wonder about eggs. I know I can't eat the cheap ones with the pale yellow yolks but I had good eggs. You're right, I probably should have just gone with fat. I may go have some blood work done just rule out anything I can't detect myself, but to be honest, the thought of going to any healthcare professional is not appealing. Interesting note: I've had a eustachian tube disturbance since last June when I had covid. My ears were full of fluid and drained all the time and were itchy and scabby like a fungal infection. All the usual things didn't kill it but by day 5 it was clear and I could hear properly again. So that's a win!
I'll try that. Thanks for your help. I do so much research but sometimes you need a human to look at things a different way for you. Appreciate your help.
