I agree with Chaser, thats been my experience also. Our clinic always gave us a list of "salty" foods such as popcorn, pretzels, etc. they recommended as snacks during the summer months. They also recommended pedialyte occassionally when we were exposed to heat for extended periods of time during the summer. It gets quite hot in Dallas and an activity such as Six Flags or even the water park could cause excessive sweating. We tried salt tablets but she was unable to tolerate them so we found the above solutions worked quite well for her.

Hello,

       Living in Australia it is quite hot and humid weather alot and there is alot of sweating done here!! I have to take salt tablets thru summer as well as add salt to all possibal foods The salty sweat of a CF'er is around all year round so long as they are sweating all tho i noticed if i sweat in the heat it is alot saltier than if i'm sweating with a temp?
