Is Accelerade better than Gatorade?
There is this new sports drink called accelerade. It has 4:1 Carbs to Protein. Is this better than traditional drinks such as Gatorade and why?
Sports nutrition companies constantly try to find new angles to market their products.
One research study found that athletes who used a sports drink with carbohydrates and protein could exercise slightly longer before exhaustion than the group that used a sports drink that only contained carbohydrates.
Next week another researcher doing another study may find that it makes no difference or adding protein has a negative effect. If one study shows a benefit companies can keep refering to it in their marketing.
The company that makes accelerade is so proud of the ratio of 4-1 for carbohydrates to protein they actually patened it. Wow, I should patent sports drinks with 3-1 and 5-1 ratios just in case a study I fund shows that athletes drinking one of these can exercise 1% longer than that old fashioned 4-1 ratio drink.
OMG! I just looked at my Oatmeal Raisin Walnut Clif Bar:.43 gm of carbohydrates and 10 gm of protein.which is about 4-1. Someone call a lawyer.
