If any of you have ever experienced brain fog, it is awful.

The inability to kind of hold a thought and maintain a thought, and you're kind of somewhere between sleep and awake, and then you're kind of stressed about that is serious.

So the mere clearance of the stuff from the extracellular space, the water, CO2, and waste products by the lymphatic system is crucial.

So before I talk about the immune surveillance role of the lymphatic system, I want to talk about what you can do to encourage the collection and drainage of all that extracellular fluid and the waste products with it.

I'd like to take a quick break and acknowledge one of our sponsors, Element.

Element is an electrolyte drink that has everything you need and nothing you don't.

That means the electrolytes, sodium, magnesium, and potassium, all in the correct ratios, but no sugar.

Proper hydration is critical for brain and body function.

Even a slight degree of dehydration can diminish your cognitive and physical performance.

It's also important that you get adequate electrolytes.

The electrolytes, sodium, magnesium, and potassium are vital for the functioning of all cells in your body, especially your neurons or your nerve cells.

Drinking Element makes it very easy to ensure that you're getting adequate hydration and adequate electrolytes.

My days tend to start really fast, meaning I have to jump right into work or right into exercise.

So to make sure that I'm hydrated and I have sufficient electrolytes, when I first wake up in the morning, I drink 16 to 32 ounces of water with an element packet dissolved in it.

I also drink element dissolved in water during any kind of physical exercise that I'm doing, especially on hot days when I'm sweating a lot and losing water and electrolytes.

Element has a bunch of great tasting flavors.

In fact, I love them all.

I love the watermelon, the raspberry, the citrus, and I really love the lemonade flavor.
