[QUOTE="Cataceous, post: 143876, member: 38109"] Prior to TRT I used to supplement with quite of bit of salt in the summer months. I'd describe it as more of a poor-performance preventer than performance enhancer. I'd come to realize that I naturally would not retain sufficient fluid—perhaps something related to aldosterone and such. My sodium losses were significant and as summers went on I would start feeling pretty horrible. The causality seems obvious in hindsight, but it took me a while to figure it out, in part due to brainwashing about the supposed evils of salt. TRT and maybe the accompanying higher estradiol made the supplementation much less necessary. I still take some salt as a precaution when doing a lot of long bike rides in the heat, but in general TRT has resolved the underlying issue. [/QUOTE]
