PERFECT RATIO MALTODEXTRIN: FRUCTOSE 1:08
PERFECT RATIO SODIUM: POTASSIUM 5:1
With SODIUM: sodium is the star player in long-duration exercise. Therefore, it will be of vital importance to ensure a minimum intake of 500mg/L in exercise drinks, increasing this amount to 700mg/L and 1200mg/L, if the duration is longer than 2 hours of exercise. OXYPRO® PROFESIONAL ISOTONIC provides 1072mg of sodium per litre. It is also worth noting the importance of sodium in stimulating the thirst of the athlete and thus also the appetite and voluntary consumption of the drink. This is something we should never forget to take into account in order to drink enough during exercise and to maintain the correct hydration of muscles and organs.
With POTASSIUM: Potassium is the most abundant positively charged ion in intracellular fluid (i.e. the fluid inside your cells), followed by magnesium. It plays a role in a number of bodily functions, including regulating fluid balance, facilitating the transmission of nerve signals and aiding muscle contractions.
Potassium losses through sweat have been estimated at just over 200 milligrams per litre of sweat (mg/L). If we compare this value with the average sodium concentration in sweat of just over 1,000 mg sodium per litre of sweat, we can establish that these are relatively small losses. Therefore, with just over 200 mg potassium per litre, we ensure that we replace all the potassium lost and do not store too much. OXYPRO® PROFESIONAL ISOTONIC provides 290mg of potassium per litre.
With BEET ROOT:
- Improved cardiovascular performance: increases nitrates in the blood, which the body can convert into nitric oxide. Nitric oxide helps dilate blood vessels, improving blood flow and oxygen delivery to muscles. This can lead to improved cardiovascular endurance and exercise performance.
- Increased resilience: Research suggests that consumption of beetroot juice can improve endurance in high-intensity activities such as running or cycling. This is attributed to the ability of nitrates to improve the efficiency of oxygen use in the body.
- Reduction of oxygen consumption: It has been observed that consumption of beetroot extract can decrease oxygen consumption during exercise, which may be beneficial for efficiency in aerobic activities and help delay fatigue.
- Increase in work capacity: By improving blood flow and oxygen efficiency, beetroot extract can contribute to an increase in work capacity during exercise, which is beneficial for athletes and active people.
- Muscle recovery: By improving the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to the muscles, beetroot extract can aid muscle recovery after exercise, reducing fatigue and speeding up the recovery process.
- Anti-inflammatory properties: Some studies suggest that compounds in beetroot may have anti-inflammatory properties, which could be beneficial in reducing inflammation associated with intense exercise.
With L-CITRULIN DL MALATE: L-Citrulline DL-malate is a nutritional supplement used in sports for its potential performance and recovery benefits. Here are some of the benefits associated with L-Citrulline DL-malate in sport:
- Improved physical performance: L-Citrulline DL-malate is involved in the production of nitric oxide, which can increase blood flow. Improved blood flow can improve the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to muscles, which can result in better performance during exercise.
- Increased resilience: Citrulline malate may help reduce feelings of fatigue and improve endurance during prolonged exercise. This is partly due to its ability to increase the elimination of metabolic by-products, such as ammonia, which can contribute to muscle fatigue.
- Reduction of muscle pain: Some studies suggest that L-Citrulline DL-malate may help reduce post-exercise muscle soreness and improve recovery. This may be related to its properties to improve blood flow and reduce the build-up of metabolic by-products in muscles.
- Support to energy productionCitrulline malate can contribute to the production of ATP, the main source of cellular energy. By improving energy production, it can help maintain vitality and endurance during exercise.
- Potential effect on cardiovascular health: L-Citrulline's ability to increase nitric oxide production may have additional benefits for cardiovascular health by improving blood vessel dilation and circulation.
With BETA ALANINE: it provides:
- Increase in muscle carnosine: Beta-alanine is a precursor of carnosine, a dipeptide found in muscle fibres. Carnosine helps neutralise the build-up of hydrogen ions (acidity) during intense physical activity, which can help delay muscle fatigue.
- Improved muscular endurance: By increasing carnosine levels in muscles, beta-alanine may help improve the body's ability to resist lactic acid build-up and muscle fatigue during high-intensity, short-duration activities.
- Increased working capacity: Beta-alanine supplementation has been shown to improve work capacity in activities involving intermittent efforts, such as sprints or high-intensity training.
- Performance enhancement in endurance sports: The benefits of beta-alanine have been observed especially in endurance sports where muscle acidosis is a limiting factor. The ability to neutralise acidity can improve performance in long-distance running, cycling and similar sports.
- Reduced perception of fatigue: Beta-alanine may help reduce the feeling of muscle fatigue, allowing athletes to train at higher intensities and for longer periods of time.
- Improved body composition: Some studies suggest that beta-alanine may have a positive impact on body composition, contributing to fat loss and increased lean mass.
With MAGNESIUM CITRATEwhich assists in:
- Involvement in energy metabolism: Magnesium plays a crucial role in energy production and transfer. It is involved in the synthesis of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the main source of cellular energy, which is essential for athletic performance.
- Regulation of muscle contraction: Magnesium is necessary for proper muscle function, including regulation of muscle contraction and relaxation. Adequate magnesium intake can help prevent muscle cramps and improve muscle function during exercise.
- Reduction of muscle fatigue: Magnesium citrate may help reduce muscle fatigue, as magnesium is involved in the elimination of metabolic by-products and aids muscle relaxation, which may be beneficial in maintaining performance during exercise.
- Nervous system support: Magnesium plays a key role in the transmission of nerve signals and can help keep the nervous system in good condition. This is crucial for coordination and neuromuscular performance during physical activity.
- Regulation of electrolyte balanceMagnesium works together with other electrolytes, such as sodium, potassium and calcium, to maintain electrolyte balance in the body. This is essential for hydration and proper muscle function.
- Improved sleep quality: Magnesium can have a positive effect on sleep quality, which is crucial for recovery and sports performance. Good rest contributes to muscle recovery and general well-being.
