Recovery Drinks



The best post-workout drinks


It is established that sports drinks containing carbohydrates are preferable in terms of performance to plain water, but recent research has shown that sports drinks containing in addition to carbohydrates and protein (better known as recovery drinks) show advantages over traditional types of drinks  with only carbohydrates.

Beverages containing carbohydrates and proteins appear to be more effective in restoring both muscle glycogen and muscle protein after intense exercise. Additionally, muscle damage may be less when protein is consumed immediately after intense exercise. 
Several studies show that creatine kinase (CK – a marker for muscle injury) levels are lower if a combination of carbohydrate & of protein immediately after exercise.

In fact, the benefits of eating a mixture of carbohydrates and protein immediately after an intense workout are positive for health because they are associated with a lower rate of visits to the doctor due to muscle or joint problems.
