Electrolyte

An electrolyte is like a special kind of juice that helps electricity move around in our bodies. You know how when you plug in a toy, it needs to be connected to the wall? Well, our bodies are like the toy and the electrolytes are like the wall.

Our cells need electricity to work properly, and the electrolytes help carry that electricity to the cells. They are like little messengers that help keep our cells healthy and keep our body running smoothly.

Some examples of electrolytes are sodium, potassium, and calcium. They can be found in foods we eat or in sports drinks that athletes drink to help them stay hydrated while they exercise.

So next time you hear the word "electrolyte", just remember that it's like a special juice that helps our cells get the electricity they need to work properly.
