When engaging in any sporting activity, whether it's running, cycling, triathlon, or any other endurance sport, it's crucial to pay close attention to hydration and nutrition. Maintaining proper hydration and nutrition not only optimizes performance, but also prevents injuries and digestive issues, and promotes rapid recovery. During exercise, our bodies expend a significant amount of energy, electrolytes, and essential minerals, which can lead to fatigue, muscle cramps, and even significant performance declines if these elements are not quickly replenished. This is where our sports nutrition products come in. Being isotonic, they offer practical and effective solutions for maintaining the energy and hydration needed for optimal performance.
Isotonic Energy Drinks
Isotonic energy drinks are essential allies for athletes, whether amateur or professional, as they offer an optimal "all-in-one" solution for staying well hydrated and energized. These drinks are particularly suitable for long-term efforts, such as trail runs, half marathons, marathons, triathlons, etc.
Our Booster+ is one of the best isotonic energy drinks for sports, among 45 drinks analyzed by Nicolas Aubineau, an independent sports dietitian and nutritionist.
Isotonic, the isotonic energy drink for sports from Authentic Nutrition, is specially formulated to rehydrate the body without fatigue and provide a rapid source of carbohydrates, necessary to maintain energy levels during exercise. In addition to carbohydrates, our isotonic exercise drink contains electrolytes such as sodium, potassium, and magnesium, which help replace minerals lost through sweat. This helps prevent muscle cramps and maintain the body's fluid balance. In addition, our isotonic energy drink during exercise includes vitamins and amino acids (BCAAs) to further improve performance and recovery.
Booster + is available in 3 flavors: lemon-lime, berry, and peach, and in 3 sizes: 40g, 500g, and 1500g.
Be aware that 1% dehydration leads to an average 10% decrease in physical performance.
Other energy nutrition products during exercise
Energy gels
Energy gels are another popular form of sports nutrition, appreciated for their convenience and effectiveness. These concentrated gels are easy to transport and consume, making them ideal for situations where access to larger foods or drinks is limited. Each dose of energy gel contains a concentrate of carbohydrates and amino acids (BCAAs), combined with electrolytes and vitamins for rapid absorption and maximum effectiveness. Energy gels are particularly useful during long-duration activities such as marathons, triathlons, or intense cycling races, where energy needs to be regularly replenished to avoid fatigue. Furthermore, their fluid consistency allows for rapid consumption without the need for chewing, which is an undeniable advantage during moments of intense effort when every second counts. By incorporating energy gels into your routine, you can maintain your energy levels high and your performance at peak levels.
Energy Bars
Energy bars are another essential product in any athlete's nutrition kit. Our flapjack bars, made from cereals (oat flakes), offer a sustained and balanced source of energy. Unlike energy gels and drinks, energy bars provide not only carbohydrates but also proteins and fats, which are essential for sustained energy and efficient muscle recovery. Fats provide a slow-release energy source. Furthermore, the solid texture of energy bars offers a feeling of satiety, which can be particularly appreciated during prolonged efforts. Energy bars are ideal for breaks during intense physical activity, providing a complete and sustained nutrient intake to maintain performance and prevent energy slumps.
Energy gummies
Energy gummies are a relatively new but very practical option for athletes. These small, candy-like gummies are rich in carbohydrates, BCAAs, and electrolytes, providing a quick and effective supply of energy. Their compact size and ease of consumption make them an ideal solution for athletes on the move, who can consume them without interrupting their activity. Our apple and strawberry energy gummies provide a sense of comfort and pleasure during long events where dietary monotony can become a problem. They are also precisely dosed, allowing you to easily manage your energy intake according to your specific needs. Whether it's for a quick boost before a final sprint or to maintain stable energy levels during a long-distance race, energy gummies are a valuable addition to sports nutrition.
Whether you're a professional athlete or a sports enthusiast, incorporating sports nutrition products such as energy drinks, gels, bars, and gummies into your routine can greatly improve your performance and endurance. By meeting your body's specific needs during exercise, our BOOST range of products will help you stay in top shape and successfully achieve your athletic goals.
