When we do exercise, perspiration sweat from the skin surface helps
regulate body temperature. Another effect of sweating is the loss of fluids and
electrolytes are essential to our body, when this loss is equivalent to a 1-2% of weight
Athlete start to change their physiological functions. This degree of dehydration is common
when doing intense exercise, but it is easy to prevent an adequate intake of fluid before,
during and after exercise. We recommend the use of specialized beverages to
proper hydration.
is an isotonic drink made of sugars and electrolytes in proportions
balanced, designed to achieve a rapid and complete hydration of the athlete, providing
also a refreshing feeling. It also provides a combination of sugars to
delaying the onset of fatigue and improving performance during the year and
speed recovery afterwards. The composition contains:
The sweat is removed by a greater amount than other electrolytes, and is considered critical
a sports drink, helping to maintain the osmotic stimulation of thirst, and prevents the loss of
water (to avoid excessive production of urine), and improves the taste. Through sweat also loses
Lesser amount of the sodium, so it is important to its replenishment.
And facilitate the functioning of muscle metabolism and energy. Moreover,
Magnesium losses in sweat have been associated with the appearance of muscle cramps. Incorporates
a combination of sugars (glucose, sucrose and maltodextrin), who ingested in proportion
determine an improvement in physical performance and delay fatigue, and that is used as fuel
muscles active.
The strategy to keep hydrated to be an athlete
be customized based on parameters such as type, duration and intensity of sport practiced, and
as the metabolism of each athlete. However, in general may recommend some
patterns of fluid intake for an athlete:
At this stage hydration should begin early and at regular intervals,
trying to consume a liquid fast enough to replace all water lost through
sweat. It is generally considered sufficient between 150 and 200 ml every 15 to 20 minutes, with minimal
interruption of the exercise. During this period, in addition to moisturize, the contribution of sugars
can increase performance and delay the onset of fatigue.
This phase of hydration can be a
critical to help a rapid recovery between each
training session or competition. There are data
indicate that it should recover 1.5 times the weight lost after
physical exercise in the following 6 hours after the same
(eg if you lose 1 kg should be ingested 1.5
liters of fluid over the next 6 hours after the
exercise).
Dissolve in a bag
half liter of water and shake. It is recommended that the
temperature is below room temperature, between
15 and 22 º C. Once prepared the solution can be preserved
in the refrigerator up to 24 hours.
