David Virgil's Lime Sports Drink #1

In an electric blender mix:

Juice of 3 limes
40 oz spring water
4000 mg 'CVS natural coral calcium' (4 pills)
600 mg 'Whole Foods Chelated Magnesium' (3 pills)
3570 mg 'Walgreens Potassium Gluconate' (6 pills)
12 tablespoons cane sugar (light-brown color, small crystals)
dash of 'Redmond Realsalt Gourmet Kosher Sea Salt'
(http://www.realsalt.com/ )

I find that this drink: produces a good night's sleep; produces pleasant dreams; helps me to recuperate from the alcohol/meal combination; helps me to recover from a long jog/walk.

I now estimate the following possibilities: the calcium magnesium potassium and salt, having electrical properties, are used better by the body, when they are mixed with a large amount of water, which is a powerful conductor of electricity; the body is better able to utilize the water in the presence of the calcium magnesium potassium and salt.

Salt in a sweet sports drink seems weird. Actually, the sea salt produces a wonderful taste in combination with the sugar, lime, minerals and water, superior to the taste without the salt added. It could be a mistake to put insufficient sea salt into this drink. This lime drink with the salt, unlike the lime drink without the salt, reminds me of the taste of sugar cane juice the minute after it is pressed out of the sugar cane.

Though the world of culinary science has figured out to present to us via grocery stores, juices that taste very similar to the way they taste when first pressed out of the fruit, the world of culinary science has not succeeded in such fashion so far, far as I can tell, with lime juice.

This indicates to me that nutritional properties of limes are lost when the juice is packaged and put on a shelf; which indicates to me the importance of freshly squeezed lime juice.

We get alot of lectures about the evilness of sugar.

The sugar used here is 'cane sugar', you will definitely get an inferior taste with white sugar.

As for me personally, as a result of run/walking the six mile course alternating between miles walked and miles run, my body is different from the sedentary body.

A body needs energy such as found in cane sugar, simply to digest the foods admired by nutritionists. If this energy is not available, nutrients that might have been used to build and repair the body, can end up being used to fuel the the digestive process.

Conceptually it is possible that: in the absence of cane sugar, the body will use water or minerals for tasks that it otherwise would use cane sugar for, as a result of which water is not available for certain tasks; the presence of cane sugar improves the body's ability to make use of water and minerals; the presence of certain nutrients negates the negative properties of sugar.

For some reason as if by intelligent design, vegetables in their natural state are usually healthy for humans, and alterations to the natural state result in the vegetable being less healthy. This drink returns calcium and sodium to the cane sugar, which has been through processing separated from the calcium and sodium that are naturally part of the cane sugar.

Many people do not realize that they are deficient in terms of potassium intake. Potassium balances sodium in terms of molecular electronics. Potassium pills are price-per-unit-potassium-wise, a surprisingly cost-effective source of potassium, even though the lowly potato chip is much better price-per-unit-potassium-wise.

I did not know this when I first invented "David Virgil's Lime Sport Drink #1", but 2 tspns of 'unrefined cane sugar' (not what is used here) apparently contains 6 mg calcium and 37 mg sodium (http://www.unrefinedcanesugar.com/more.htm ).

Sugar is known to have adverse effects on health, which resembles the damage caused by fats. Apparently when lime is consumed at the same time as fats, the lime cuts through the fat and negates the harmful effects of the fat. Perhaps lime similarly negates harmful effects of sugar.

These are not the words of a credentialed specialist. I'm trying to get the reader to start thinking in imaginative out-of-the-box ways with regards to combinations of nutrients. It's hard to believe that something that tastes as good as, and is as refreshing as, this lime drink, is unhealthy consumed in moderation.

Relevant quote:

"Sugarcane: Sugarcane is one of favorite fruit season, the sugar content is very rich, is 18% to 20%. It is worth mentioning that, sugar cane sugar is sucrose, fructose, glucose consisting of three components, easily absorbed and used by the body. Sugarcane also contains iron, calcium, phosphorus, manganese, zinc and other essential trace elements, including iron content of the special and more than 9 milligrams per kilogram, ranking first in the fruit, the sugar cane known as “blood,” and good name."

I felt as if I would be irresponsible and lazy if at this point I did not review the study of electro-physiology I did using the internet in 2004. See: Electro-physiology & Sports Drinks such as 'Sports Drinks' such as 'David Virgil Lime Sports Drink #1':
