S’il est vrai que l’eau étanche la soif, ce n'est pas toujours la meilleure boisson pour réhydrater ton corps durant ou après l’effort. Voici pourquoi:


- L’eau ne contient pas les minéraux et glucides nécessaires. ^{4,7,9,10-16, 19-20, 26}
- L’eau ne contient aucun arôme qui encourage à boire. Elle bloque les récepteurs de soif trop tôt, avant même que tu n’aies remplacé les liquides perdus par le biais de la transpiration. ^{1,3,9,12,20,21}

Les boissons pour sportifs sont conçues spécialement pour réapprovisionner tes réserves d’énergie et de sodium afin de te permettre de donner le meilleur de toi-même pendant tes entraînements, les sports d’endurance ou tes activités physiques.
