Banana With a Pinch of Salt

A banana with a small pinch of salt has become a popular pre-workout snack—but does it actually make sense?

For some people, yes.

Bananas provide:

• Potassium

• Easily digested carbohydrates

• Vitamin B6

Salt provides:

• Sodium, an essential electrolyte lost through sweat

During long or intense workouts—especially in hot weather—you lose both water and sodium through sweat. Replacing fluids and electrolytes can help support normal hydration and muscle function.
