024 SALT INTAKE AND SPORTS PERFORMANCE
by Dawn Weatherwax
Table salt (sodium chloride) is a combination of two minerals: sodium and chloride. The body needs it to function. Without it, you would die. It aids in building and recovering muscles, impacts blood pressure, aids in staying hydrated and helps prevent muscle cramps during activity.

030 SHIFTING CURRENTS: A WORLD HISTORY OF SWIMMING by Karen Eva Carr
Book review by Bruce Wigo
The latest book to dive into the subject of swimming history, as interpreted by historians and journalists, is Shifting Currents: A World History of Swimming, an incredibly well-researched and richly illustrated book by Karen Eva Carr. The things that separate Karen’s book from the rest are her background as an expert in classical art and ancient archaeology and her use of art through the ages—from all inhabited continents—to help tell her story. And what a story!
