Nuetro Isotonic is a sports replenishment drink with a plus of amino acids: Mix of carbohydrates in a 2:1:1 ratio (Dextrose:Maltodextrin:Fructose) With a plus of Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAA) and L-Glutamine With minerals from assimilable sources With anti-doping certificate by Informed-Sport Incredible taste and digestibility Suitable for Vegans and free of allergens Nuetro Isotonic (Isodrink & Energy) is a sports drink powder of the highest quality and with a premium composition that provides all the necessary ingredients not only to maintain but to improve performance in your workouts and competitions.
It is proven that replenishing fluids along with carbohydrates and electrolytes (mineral salts) during exercise can prevent dehydration and therefore delay fatigue, resulting in improved performance (Wagenmakers, A.J., et al. JAP. 1993). Ingesting only water to replenish lost fluids does not work, as this can lead to a dilution of the blood plasma and consequently a decrease in osmolality and electrolytes, i.e. the opposite of the desired effect. The same applies to using a drink with a high concentration of minerals, since this produces the opposite effect, i.e. an increase in plasma osmolality, a consequent reduction in the rate of sweating and, therefore, a reduction in thermoregulation capacity, i.e. an increase in body temperature (Gregor, R.J. et al....), Oxford: Blackwell Science; 2000), which not only reduces performance but also puts our health at risk. Isotonic (Isodrink & Energy) contains an ideal matrix of three carbohydrate sources, Dextrose, Maltodextrin and Fructose, in a 2:1:1 ratio. It has been shown that in prolonged exercise (from 1.5 h) the use of carbohydrates that are absorbed by different transport systems (known as GLUT) facilitates gastric emptying and fluid absorption and is also the only way to increase the rate of assimilation and oxidation of exogenous carbohydrates above 60 g/hour (Currell, K. et al., MSSE. 2008; Earnest, C.P. et al., JSCR. 2004). Also, something that few people know and/or many forget is that the consumption of exogenous carbohydrates during physical activity minimises the immunosuppressive effects of intense exercise (Nieman, D.C. et al., EIR. 1.998), Minerals, better known as electrolytes or salts, in addition to the benefits already mentioned, also improve the antidiuretic effect, therefore, less liquid is eliminated by the kidneys and as a consequence hydration is improved (Coso, J.D. et al., The most important is sodium (Na), because it is the one we lose most through sweat and is essential for maintaining hydration during physical activity (NDA Panel. EFSA Journal. 2011). It also provides potassium (K) in adequate proportions and in a highly assimilable form, potassium citrate. As it is a very technical and advanced formula and is suitable for both beginners and the most experienced, we have incorporated branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) and glutamine, because it has been shown that the intake of these amino acids together with carbohydrates during training reduces the markers of muscle damage (Valentine, R.J. et al., IJSNEM. 2008). Branched-chain amino acids (BCAA), especially leucine, are also highly oxidised by the muscle, i.e. they are used as a source of energy, reducing the use of glycogen in favour of fats. Furthermore, the intake of these amino acids during exercise reduces Central Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), i.e. it reduces the brain's production of Serotonin (a neurotransmitter related to symptoms of tiredness and mood) (Kerksick, C.M. et al., JISSN. 2008). In addition, Glutamine intake has been shown to reduce gastrointestinal discomfort during exercise due to improved intestinal permeability. In summary and in conclusion, according to science, athletes should ingest carbohydrate and electrolyte solutions to maintain blood glucose levels, prevent dehydration and reduce immunosuppressive effects during intense physical activity (Kerksick, C.M. et al., JISSN. 2.018), JISSN. 2.018), and not forgetting that Isodrink & Energy is 100% safe as it is certified by Informed-Sport as an anti-doping product (Lemon and Red Fruit Flavours).
