WHAT TO DRINK WHEN WORKING OUT

WHAT TO DRINK WHEN WORKING OUT

SUSTAIN SPORT-PERFORMANCE HYDRATION


Water is great at keeping you hydrated during short exercise periods. But when you’re really pushing it, water just doesn’t give you what you need- critical electrolytes. Minerals like calcium, sodium, magnesium and potassium are known electrolytes. These minerals are responsible for regulating the electrical charge and flow across cell membranes.



SUSTAIN SPORTcontains a proprietary electrolyte complex of calcium, magnesium, sodium and potassium. These four electrolytes:

• rehydrate your cells

• maximize muscle performance

• help convert carbohydrates into energy

• minimize muscle tissue breakdown



Grocery store name brand products like Gatorade and Powerade only contain two electrolytes. They also contain large amounts of simple sugars such as dextrose and corn syrup. These syrupy, sweet mixtures lead to blood sugar spikes and unsustained energy. With its exclusive blend of fructose and ribose, SUSTAIN SPORT ensures proper rehydration, reduced muscle fatigue, and a steady energy source without radical blood sugar high and lows.



SUSTAIN SPORT contains only 30 calories per serving- that’s ¼ the calories of Gatorade. SUSTAIN SPORT also has natural Vitamin E, Vitamin C and 100% of the Daily Value of Vitamin B12 for even more energy.


I prefer the Berry flavor, but my kids LOVE the Lemon...tastes just like a glass of lemonade.  Olympic athletes use the Sustain and with my children striving to be professional athletes, I wanted the best for them!

Think I'll go make a lemon one now...perfect to drink on a warm day when cleaning house.  Have a great day everyone!
