Isotonic drinks optimise training performance by improving hydration and glucose replenishment.
Isotonic drinks have the same sugar content as blood. They are designed to quickly hydrate the body by replacing water and salts (i.e. electrolytes) lost in sweat, as well as provide energy (i.e. glucose) to working muscles and the brain.
People who train longer than 1 hour e.g. middle to long distance runners should opt for isotonic drinks before, during or after exercise.
