Haymakers Punch/ Switchel Natural Electrolyte Drink

Jun 23, 2024
This recipe is a natural gatorade electrolyte drink and
has been around for centuries. It can be called
Haymakers Punch, Switchel, or Ginger Water. Just
drinking plain water on a hot day does not replenish
the body, which is why people putting up hay on a hot
day would drink this instead; hence the name haymakers
punch. It also helps eliminate charlie horses and
restless leg syndrome.

Recipe:
1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
1/3 cup maple syrup
1 tsp. ground ginger
8 cups of filtered water

This concoction is probably hydrating, but no, I wouldn't drink it to replace
electrolytes. Especially for someone who's physically active, athletic.

There might be some nutritional value in these ingredients, (I'm not
convinced apple cider vinegar is so healthy) it may taste good, or not, but I
don't see any ingredients in there that are especially high in electrolytes.

It's a shame she substituted out molasses, specifically black strap molasses,
Which IS high in some electrolytes. 1 tbs contains 395 mg. potassium, 42 mg
magnesium & 117 mg. calcium, as well as iron, B6 & zinc. It does have sugar,
but not as much as maple syrup. Maple syrup has a bit of sodium. That's it
for electrolytes.

Electrolytes found in your body include:

Sodium
Potassium (recommended amount is 3,500 milligrams - 4,700 milligrams
daily)

Chloride
Calcium
Magnesium
Phosphate
Bicarbonate

"Does apple cider vinegar contain electrolytes?

Yes, apple cider vinegar does contain small amounts of electrolytes,
including potassium and some traces of calcium and magnesium. These
electrolytes can help support hydration and contribute to overall electrolyte
balance in the body.

Can apple cider vinegar replenish electrolytes?

While apple cider vinegar does contain some electrolytes, it is important to
note that the amounts are relatively low compared to other sources such as
sports drinks or electrolyte supplements. Therefore, apple cider vinegar
should not be relied upon as the primary source for replenishing electrolytes,
especially after intense physical activity."

Lemon juice, which contains very small amounts of electrolytes & vitamin C,
looks like the best ingredient in her mix, that with water.

excerpt
"Possible side effects of apple cider vinegar
Apple cider vinegar is highly acidic, which can present some problems.

Its acidity can erode your tooth enamel, the protective shield on the outside
of your teeth. Once it wears away, you can’t get it back. The acetic acid in
straight, undiluted ACV can also burn your esophagus.

“To help prevent these problems, water down your ACV by adding a
tablespoon to a mug of warm water,” Czerwony advises. “This cuts down on
the amount of acid hitting your teeth and throat.”

Other possible side effects include:

Low potassium levels: There are very few studies on how ACV can affect
potassium levels. But Czerwony says you shouldn’t use it if you already have
low potassium levels (hypokalemia), as it could make the condition worse.

Drug interactions: If you take any medications, ask your doctor whether you
can safely take apple cider vinegar. It can interact with some types of
medicines, including insulin and diuretics (water pills).

Nausea and vomiting: “Some people quite literally just can’t stomach the
taste and acidity of apple cider vinegar,” Czerwony warns. “If it makes you
feel sick, stop using it.”

You should also keep pure ACV out of reach of kids so they can’t drink it or
get it on their skin."
