Isotonic drinks

Benefits and use of isotonic drinks

Isotonic drinks are fast-absorbing liquids that help replenish electrolytes, water and energy lost by the body during intense physical activity. They maintain fluid balance, improve endurance, reduce fatigue and help prevent dehydration and muscle cramps. These drinks are especially useful during long workouts or in hot weather, consumed before, during or after physical activity. The usual dose is 20–30 g of powder in 500–750 ml of water or in a ready-made form.
