		<title>Energy Bars The Facts</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There are many ways that energy products can improve fitness and athletic performance.  During the course of a workout or endurance event, crucial bodily fluids are lost, muscle damage occurs and energy levels are depleted.  This can compromise the quality of the workout and make recovery time longer than necessary.  Implementing the use of nutritional supplements like energy bars and sports drinks before, during and after exercise can have positive effects on everything from energy levels to recovery times. The benefits of energy bars include: A convenient energy source. Boosted carbohydrate levels. Improved endurance. A sustained release of energy for athletes. Maintained blood sugar levels. Postponed exercise-related fatigue. A convenient post-exercise snack. Re-fuelled glycogen stores in the body. Energy drinks are identified as being equally effective as energy bars, in terms of helping athletes recover and restore their energy levels during and after training.  However, there is one major advantage of using energy drinks in comparison to energy bars: they replenish essential fluids that are lost through sweating. The benefits of sports energy drinks include: A source of essential electrolytes (sodium, potassium). A source of caffeine, protein and important herbs. A source of amino acids. Boosted endurance levels. Maintained blood [...]]]></description>

		<title>Choosing The Right Sports Drinks.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Prolonged exercise has many benefits for your body, but a few factors can limit the amount of exercise you do, namely the depletion of the body’s store of carbohydrates and sweating.  Sweating is the body’s way of maintaining its core temperature, but results in the loss of bodily fluid and electrolytes.  Sports drinks are an ideal method of replacing these important functions of the body. Some of the more popular sports drinks are Gatorade, Powerade, Lucozade and Science in Sport GO.  With all these different options available, how do you ultimately decide which sports drink is the right one to use? There are three different types of sports drinks: hypertonic, hypotonic and isotonic.  It is very important to choose the right kind of sports drink to maximise one’s workout and achieve fitness goals.  Most sports drinks replenish fluids, carbs and electrolytes in a ratio similar to that normally found in the human body, but some can replenish them in much higher concentrations.  Choose sports drinks carefully and your body will function better.  Note that it is best to opt for a sports drink that does not mostly consist of fructose, as this can slow absorption and cause stomach cramps.  It [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Facts About Energy Bars &amp; Sports Bars</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Energy bars are powerful dietary supplements that offer an excellent source of carbohydrates and other essential minerals, providing the body with a powerful boost of energy when needed.  Energy bars provide many benefits, especially for endurance athletes such as marathon runners and cyclists.  Some of the many benefits of energy bars are as follows: Convenience – energy bars have enough calories to keep you going when it matters most.  Often, athletic events require extraordinary amounts of energy, but do not allow the time for a fully prepared meal.  Being able to pack a small energy bar in your pocket allows for an added energy boost when you need it.  Taking along an energy bar saves on space and will not weigh you down.  Furthermore, energy bars do not require refrigeration, making it less complicated to enjoy a good, healthy meal on the go. Variety – there are many different types of energy bars on the market and each variety will appeal to a specific energetic or dietary requirement.  Some people who are trying to lose weight and want to avoid the fast food option will find a quick, healthy meal replacement bar an appealing option.  Other people turn to energy [...]]]></description>
