(MENAFNEditorial) (EMAILWIRE.COM, October 24, 2014 ) Sarasota, Florida -- Tuvizo decided to unravel the mystery behind the three types of sports drinks which are on the market at the moment and explain what effect each one is meant to have on the body.
Isotonic sports drinks contain 6% to 8% carbohydrates, electrolytes and liquid. The makeup of the drink is meant to mirror the salt and sugar content of the human body and is the most popular among people who exercise. The body absorbs the drink at the same rate it would water and the The Tuvizo Reflective Running Vest provides high visibility in the day and excellent reflective qual carbohydrates give the athlete a boost.
Hypotonic drinks have a much lower carb level than isotonic sports drinks, and are used by people who need to replace fluid lost through sweating. Hypertonic drinks have a high carb level and are designed to boost performance rather than quench thirst. It is necessary to supplement hypertonic drinks with added water or isotonic drinks, to avoid dehydration.
Nick Hudson, who is the national fitness manager for Virgin Active, says that if an exercise regime is under two hours, a sports drink is unnecessary and just adds calories to the day's intake. Hudson said, "They're useful for people who compete in events, where they'll be exercising in excess of two hours. But those doing shorter, more intensive workouts don't really benefit physiologically."
Nutritionists constantly slate sports drinks, pointing to the high sugar content, additives, colourants and caffeine content. They believe that the perfect drink is fruit juice with water and an added pinch of salt. For an energy boost, they recommend dried fruit or a banana.
