| What happens to the body with exercise and sweat? | How VEROFIT Isotonic can help |
| Increase in body temperature | It is a water based drink that quickly replaces fluids. Also, taurine can play a significant role in regulating water at elevated temperatures. |
| Decrease in blood sodium | It contains the 6 minerals that are lost in perspiration (sodium, calcium, potassium, magnesium, phosphorus, and chloride). |
| Decrease in blood sugar | It provides fructose and maltodextrin at a 6% concentration. |
| Energy and calorie consumption | Carbohydrates and protein equivalents (taurine and glutamine) replace expended energy. Additionally, the 10 vitamins in VEROFIT Isotonic facilitate the absorption of carbohydrates. |
| Acceleration of gastric emptying | The 6% sugar concentration is optimal for the replacement of necessary carbohydrates without accelerating gastric emptying. |
| Production of free agents that increase oxidation | The vitamin E included in VEROFIT Isotonic is an important antioxidant. |
| Increased susceptibility to infection due to high energy consumption | Glutamine can reduce susceptibility to infection. |
| Increased demands on the cardiac muscle and muscle fibres | Taurine strengthens the heart and stimulates neurotransmitter signals, thereby increasing muscle contraction. |
| Loss of thirst, or limited liquid consumption | The pleasant orange, lemonlime, and tropical flavours motivate athletes to drink them with the frequency that the body needs. |
- What is an Isotonic Drink?
- An isotonic beverage is a sport drink whose osmolarity is between 250 mOsm/L and 340 mOsm/L. VEROFIT Isotonic has an osmolarity of 315 mOsm/L. And what is osmolarity? It is the concentration of particles in the blood. In this case, we are looking for a similar concentration of particles in the drink to what is found in the bloodstream( the human body has an average osmorality of 250 mOsm/L and 340 mOsm/L), so that its absorption will be faster and will require less extra energy from the body for its assimilation.
- Benefits of VEROFIT Isotonic:
- - Greater concentration.
- - Prevents injury.
- - Delays tiredness.
- - Increases performance.
- - Avoids cramps, nausea, and other signs of discomfort due to insufficient hydration.
- - Pleasant flavours that promote sufficient consumption of the beverage.
- How should it be consumed?
- Athletes should drink before they feel thirsty, because thirst is not a good indicator of dehydration. The physiological sensation of thirst appears when it is already too late to completely replace the lost water. Therefore, athletes should follow certain guidelines for sufficient hydration to accompany the rest of their daily diet, and which should form part of their training.
- Consumption guidelines:
- - Before competition or training: 300-600 mL (0.8mL/kg weight).
- - During physical activity: 150-250 mL every 15-20 minutes.
- - Recovery: drink 500-1000 mL per kg of weight lost during exercise.
- - The liquid should be isotonic and served at about 15°C.
- How else can VEROFIT Isotonic help us?
- VEROFIT Isotonic is sold in 660 g tins. This offers the versatility of choosing between an isotonic or hypotonic beverage on every occasion.
- If we mix 30 g in 500 cc of water, we will get an isotonic beverage will all of its benefits. In the event that we do not need an isotonic beverage, we can add fewer grams and get a hypotonic drink.
When participating in any sort of physical activity, it is important to consume
liquids in order to prevent hyperthermia (increase in body temperature) and
hypoglycemia (reduction in blood sugar levels), without affecting the rate of
gastric emptying.
In addition, a loss of 2% of liquid leads to a 20% decrease in performance
and concentration.
Therefore, the ideal product for good water replacement when we exercise is VEROFIT Isotonic, which quickly replaces fluids and electrolytes lost during the workout, and which provides us with the necessary energy to work with our muscles (carbohydrates).
