Recently, from sodium benzoate manufacturers learned that many sports drinks on the market can supplement energy, under the influence of various advertisements, many people will choose sports drinks during exercise, sports drinks and ordinary drinks in the end what is the difference? Can sports drinks really resist fatigue?

Sports drinks are specially designed for people who exercise or physical activity. They can be quickly absorbed by the human body so as to provide water, electrolytes and energy for the body after exercise. Although regular drinks seem to be able to replenish water and energy, sports drinks are unique as a functional drink.

Firstly, sports drinks supplement minerals such as sodium and potassium besides water loss during exercise, which are not necessarily found in ordinary drinks. If you do not timely supplement of minerals, will affect the normal function of nerves and muscles, cramps, blurred mind, and even cause electrolyte disorders, water and salt metabolism disorders, so that the body seriously dehydrated.

Secondly, sports drinks contain oligosaccharides as well as refined sugars such as sugar and glucose. Most of the sugars in ordinary drinks are white sugar, glucose, fructose and other sugars which are easily absorbed. This will make the blood sugar level rise rapidly, thus stimulating insulin secretion increase, and quickly reduce blood sugar, blood sugar like a roller coaster up and down, is not conducive to blood sugar stability. Besides refined sugars, sports drinks also contain water-soluble dietary fibers such as fructooligosaccharides, isomaltose oligosaccharides, soybean oligosaccharides, etc., which delay sugar absorption and help maintain blood sugar levels.

Once again, the osmotic pressure of sports drinks is lower than or equal to that of blood osmotic pressure. According to the national standard, the sugar content of sports drinks is 3-8%, which is lower than or equal to the crystal osmotic pressure of blood, and the nutrients in sports drinks are easily absorbed by human body. Compared with ordinary drinks, sports drinks are not high in sugar content, much lower than fruit drinks, cola, tea drinks and other common drinks, unless each drink is excessive, otherwise will not cause excess energy.
