Sportade

Now that I am running thrice during the weekday early in the morning, it is essential for me to get the necessary glucose to fuel me for the next 1 - 2 hours, and to be fully hydrated before and after my run. But I think I should have stick to gatorade instead of Sportade. It is cheaper, but taste wise, it is baddd, toooo sweet for my liking, and the flavours taste wierd + they do not contains potassium, just glucose and sodium.

Anyway, to those who run very often and run long distance, it is essential to replenish not just water, but also the electrolytes lost while running, hence, we drinks these sports drink. Even for weight watchers, don't avoid this! The good news is that you can savour these sugary drinks! You are asking your body to perform when running, so reward it! If you try and curb this sugar intake which is essential and is required, what happens is that you might have more cravings for sweet stuffs later. So why not do your body some good while it is performing, and they also help your body to hydrate 30% faster than water, and the sodium/potassium helps prevent muscle cramps too!

But if you are those who just jog/run for less than 30min, normal water will be good enough to keep you hydrated.
