A combination of soft, fragrant peaches with the delicious bittersweet citrus aroma of grapefruit and a hint of spicy chili pepper as an uplifting thirst quencher.

The ideal thirst quencher for replenishing carbohydrates and minerals during exercise.

• 1:1 ratio of dextrose:fructose for optimal carbohydrate absorption without stomach discomfort
• With extra sodium (1g/liter)to replenish salt loss and maintain fluid balance
• Ideal isotonic thirst quencher with electrolytes
• Handy packaging on the go

Description

During exercise, the body perspires so that body temperature would not rise too high. The fluid that is lost must be replenished by drinking to maintain fluid balance . If too little fluid is ingested in relation to the fluid loss (= dehydration), this will have a negative effect on performance.

In addition to restoring or maintaining fluid balance , a sports drink can also help maintain blood glucose (sugar in the blood) and replenish muscle glycogen (sugar in the muscle). This is important since performance is affected by how many carbohydrates are available.

With an isotonic drink, the number of particles of the drink are equal to the number of particles in the blood and therefore both water, carbohydrates and minerals are optimally absorbed. Vitalic sports drinks are therefore the ideal thirst quencher.

In addition, performance in endurance sports depends on muscle glycogen reserves. Therefore, it is important to replenish fuel reserves with additional carbohydrates during exercise. If no carbohydrates were ingested during prolonged exercise, muscle glycogen reserves would be depleted after about 90 minutes. The amount of carbohydrates to take in during exercise depends on the duration of exercise.

Available in 2 tasty and contemporary flavor varieties: Lemon-yuzu-verbena and blueberry-elderflower-mint.

• Efforts <1hour: no need to take carbohydrates during exercise.
• Efforts 1-2 hours: 30 g of carbohydrates per hour of exercise (approx. 500 ml Isotonic).
• Efforts 2-3 hours: 60 g of carbohydrates per hour of effort (approx. 1 l Isotonic).
• Efforts >2.5-3 hours: up to 90 g of carbohydrates per hour of effort (up to about 1.5 l Isotonic).

Vitalic contains both dextrose and fructose. For efforts longer than 2.5h it is recommended to take between 60g and 90g of carbohydrates per hour. This is only possible when different types of carbohydrates are taken at the same time (=multi-transportable carbohydrates). This is because the glucose transporter is saturated at a carbohydrate intake of 60g per hour. In order to be able to absorb more than 60g of carbohydrates per hour, it is therefore best to combine dextrose with, for example, fructose, which uses a different transporter and is more slowly oxidized (1).

The 1 to 1 ratio of Vitalic sports drinks has the advantage that:

• more ingested carbohydrates are oxidized;
• faster gastric emptying occurs;
• there is increased moisture absorption;
• it is well tolerated by the stomach

In addition, this isotonic thirst quencher also contains sodium that helps compensate for electrolyte loss (due to sweating). The addition of electrolytes also improves fluid retention and stimulates thirst . For efforts longer than 2h, it is recommended to drink a sports drink containing 0.4-1.1g/L of sodium.

Vitalic sports drinks are specially formulated for optimal rehydration and replenishment of energy reserves and electrolytes before, during and after exercise.

For whom can Vitalic be beneficial?

This isotonic thirst quencher is a drink suitable for all athletes in need of quick recovery of fluid balance and replenishment of fuel and electrolytes. Both explosive athletes (e.g. sprinters), team athletes and endurance athletes can benefit from this drink. Vitalic sports drinks is the ideal sports drink during training and competitions.

User Manual
