8. Sports drinks

There are many commercials and ads that say it’s better to consume a sports drink after a training session, in order to replenish the electrolyte you’ve lost through sweat.

On the other hand, there are many fitness instructors and nutritionists who say that plain water is more than enough to hydrate after a tough workout.

Sports drinks are important for high-performance athletes, who need to stay energized and hydrated throughout the whole time of their training.

However, if you are not among them, you should stick to regular water, because if you have a sensitive stomach, these drinks can make you feel a bit nauseous.

  1. You missed it when you did not point out that 99.999% of sports drinks are loaded with sugar, which make them the first thing one should avoid. Next time don’t be afraid to offend the sports drink industry

  2. Organic Treo. That has been the best drink for me. Tried others for many, many, years. Strawberry flavor. Also, take a nitric oxide pill before a long workout and run. And of course water. For breakfast I eat a banana and peanut butter with a little bit of jelly(apricot or peach) with water. Been doing the peanut butter and banana for over twenty five years. Also drink a few sips of a Carnation Instant Beakfast mixed with non fat milk.

  3. After being in the beverage industry for 35+ years, charcoal filtered tap water is the best! Anything in plastic, pressurized is sterilized with Ozone while being filled and are poisonous for 2 weeks until the ozone leeches out through the plastic. Dasani and Aqua Fina are made this way. Cheapest water I can buy is what I drink!

  4. Premier Protein Shakes have ONE gram of sugar and THIRTY grams of protein, plus tons of vitamins and minerals. Comments, anyone?

  6. My favorite beverage is Whole Milk Water… I mix fatty sugar free whole milk with cold water 1 to 32…
    The fat from the milk brings satisfaction… The white color makes you feel like you’re drinking something other than water… And, it adds flavor to nice pure water that has no taste… I drink about 4 of these a day, so I consume about a half cup of milk and a gallon of water, at home… Out of the house I carry 2 more gallons of straight water…
    Water is the only good beverage…
