Summary
A person said that electrolytes, hydration and eating a lot of good quality food made a huge difference when post-exertional malaise hit. They drank electrolytes and water every hour rather than water alone, so as not to flush out salt, and ate generously, as if about to run a marathon, with good fats, fish and animal protein.
