What are energy drinks?

It is important to know from the outset that an energy drink is a nutritional product for sportsmen and women. It is mainly made for endurance athletes who are constantly trying to push their limits. It is composed of water, vitamins, sugar, minerals and antioxidants. It adequately rehydrates the body and helps to fight against fatigue.
In addition, it boosts the energy of the sportsman by enabling him to improve his performance. It is the drink for long and intense efforts. It is recommended to drink it before, during and even after physical effort. Some dieticians even recommend taking a few sips every 20 minutes. Of course, the frequency and even the quantity can vary depending on the activity performed and the climate conditions.
 

How important are energy drinks?

Endurance sports are all about pushing yourself to the limit, as your body has to maintain a high level of strength for long periods. On top of this, there is a desire to achieve and break personal records. Therefore, it is essential for endurance athletes not to neglect any step, from preparation to recovery after intense physical effort. It is therefore a question of optimising hydration and energy intake.
Energy drinks are special drinks that contain electrolytes. You should know that during exercise you lose an average of 1 to 1.5 litres of water in an hour. Depending on certain factors such as the intensity of the effort, its duration or the ambient temperature, the loss can increase to 3 litres in an hour. It is important to note that a water loss of 2% is more than enough to affect your performance. Moreover, it is generally at this stage of loss that thirst is triggered and even increased.
You will hardly be able to beat your record with this uncomfortable feeling of thirst and fatigue. It is therefore important to prevent this with a quality training drink. To compensate for all that you have lost by sweating, you need an isotonic energy drink to boost your carbohydrate and mineral levels.
The combination of carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals will help to meet the nutritional needs of athletes during major competitions. It is also useful for high intensity exercise such as hiking, ultra-trail, running, mountaineering and cycling. Electrolyte-rich drinks are designed to help with hydration. They also help fight fatigue. Electrolytes include sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium.
Energy drinks are ideal for sustained, long-term efforts, as are salty energy bars, energy purees and energy cakes, for example. They are particularly popular with the young, active and busy population. They increase physical energy levels. In addition, they prolong alertness and stimulate intellectual development. However, they are not recommended for everyday use, especially considering their high caloric intake.

What to add to our energy drinks?

To begin with, it is important to stay properly hydrated even after exercise. It is recommended to continue drinking an energy drink for 1 to 2 hours after exercise. This will allow you to adequately compensate for all that has been lost. In addition, as some activities are more energy intensive than others, you can supplement your drink with another food.
For example, you can pair the drink with plain yoghurt, hot chocolate or cottage cheese. You can also alternate your drink with other types of snacks such as energy gels, which you can find on our website. They are also effective in replenishing your energy.
In short, it is important to be physically active, but it is even more important to have all the necessary elements at your disposal to ensure your well-being. Endurance sports consume a lot of energy that you have to replace constantly. Energy drinks are ideal for this.
