Frequently Asked Questions
-
All Sport Body Quencher is scientifically formulated to rehydrate any athlete. All Sport is made with twice as much potassium and half as much sodium than other sports drinks; plus it has 100% Vitamin C.
-
Potassium helps muscle contraction. A low level of potassium in the body usually results in muscle cramping, but other risks can occur such as arthritis, stroke, heart disease, and digestive disorders. Athletes are at a higher risk for potassium deficiency, and so it’s important that they maintain this nutrient at optimum levels.
Potassium also allows muscles to return to a resting state after exercise. Without this needed rest, muscles become weakened and sore. By increasing the potassium in your body, you can reduce the amount of pain you experience after exercise.
-
All Sport should be used to rehydrate the body during exercise and also whenever additional energy is needed. The optimal amount of All Sport to drink during activity depends on the type and intensity of activity, air temperature, and your body size and fitness level.
Before exercise: consume approximately 12-20 oz. of fluid 2 hours prior to exercise and 7-10 oz. of fluid 15-20 min prior to exercise.
During exercise: as a general rule you should consume approximately 20-32 oz. of fluid for every hour of exercise. This should consist of ingesting several ounces of All Sport every 10 to 15 minutes throughout activity. However, there is large variability between individuals as to their tolerance for fluid intake. Furthermore, during many athletic events the frequency and volume of fluids available may be limited. Individuals are encouraged to drink as much as can be tolerated within the recommendation above without inducing gastrointestinal distress.
Following exercise: consume approximately 20-24 oz. of fluid per pound of weight loss after exercise.

While All Sport is formulated especially for use before and during exercise, it is also an excellent source of recovery nutrition. Following a workout, the body needs water and sodium for rehydration, carbohydrates to replenish muscle fuel stores, and potassium to allow the body to heal. All Sport contains all of these important recovery nutrients.
-
All Sport contains 16 grams of carbohydrate per 8 oz. serving, primarily in the form of simple sugars. While most of us try to limit our sugar intake in regular meals and snacks, simple sugars and other fast-acting carbohydrates are beneficial during exercise because they provide a source of quick energy. A 6-8% carbohydrate concentration is widely accepted to be the ideal in a sports drink. The carbohydrate concentration of All Sport is 6.7%.

All Sport’s key mix of electrolytes is sodium, potassium and chloride. These minerals are lost when the body sweats, and replenishing them is important to rehydration. Water alone does not replace electrolytes.

Osmolality is a measure of the number of particles in a solution and can affect the functionality of fluid replacement. The osmolality of All Sport is barely higher than our blood to ensure rapid absorption.
