GOOD FOR YOU BAD FOR YOU // ELECTROLYTES
> Sometimes it's hard to tell.
Want to improve your endurance in high energy activities? A new study conducted at the University of Edinburgh showed that sports drinks, like Powerade, quickly replace fluids and electrolytes lost through perspiration to improve hydration and energy levels.
Each day Chris Newman drinks between seven and 10 electrolyte-enhanced drinks. "I go through Gatorade like water," Straight, Stark senior, says. "A while back I read that there's too much sugar in Gatorade, so I started drinking Smart Water to cut back."
While limiting the amount of sugar intake may be a good start, Straight may be overlooking the amount of salt in his liquid intake. An electrolyte is a derivative of salt that is needed to promote hydration especially after exercise.
Is it in you? Electrolytes from energy drinks like Gatorade can be beneficial if you're involved in high-energy activities.
Ron Maughan, a professor of sport, exercise and health sciences at Loughborough University, says people need to be aware of their own level of salt intake in their everyday diets.
and losing a lot of sweat, a high salt diet may be beneficia," Maughan says.
"If they're working hard in hot climates
The Verdict: GOOD FOR YOU. Drink electrolyte-enhanced drinks to replace the salt and fluids lost after high-energy activities.

ALL NIGHTERS
For college students, pulling an all-nighter is almost a rite of passage. Alyssa Philips, Perry senior, admits she has resorted to last minute studying too many times while at KU. "A lot of the times it's the only way I can fit in a solid amount of studying," she says.
As bad it may be, Philips is not alone. In a study conducted at St. Lawrence University in Canton, N.Y., two-thirds of students reported that over the course of a single semester, they had pulled at least one all-nighter.

"Whatever you think you're learning between 3 a.m. and 7 a.m., you're not," says psychology professor Pamela Thacher, who wrote the study. She suggests getting at least ninety minutes, if not three hours of sleep to help retain information. Though cramming might help students perform well the following day, Thacher says in the long-run students who repeatedly pull all-nighters have lower grade point averages.
John Wade, outreach coordinator for the University's Counseling and Psychological Service, says cognitive capabilities, retention and memory, suffer greatly form sleep deprivation and that the likelihood of mistakes is likely to increase.

Up 'ril dawn:
Though many students pull all-nighters cramming for tests, sleeping for a few hours is more beneficial and allows you to retain the knowledge.
"In some ways, studying is a lot like working out," Wade said. "You wouldn't work out with only three or four hours to rest. You need the rest period in order to synthesize and be able to use the information you've studied."
