Types Of Electrolyte Disorders

Compounds and elements that are naturally occurring in the body responsible for the management and facilitation of imperative physiologic functions are called electrolytes. These elements and compounds appear in the urine, blood, and bodily fluids. Electrolytes are responsible for balancing the fluid levels between the inside of the cells, the space around the cells, and in the blood. This happens because of osmosis, where fluids gravitate toward the area with the largest imbalance in the fluid to electrolyte ratio. Where ever the biggest concentration of electrolytes are, fluids come to balance it out.
