Uses For Electrolyte / Energy formula (stick packs)
Endurance:
Electrolytes are vital cofactors for muscle energy
metabolism and cell function. Suboptimal levels can compromise
performance while optimal levels promote endurance and may
lessen the perception of exertion during exercise. This formula
combines sodium, chloride, potassium, calcium and magnesium
to replenish electrolytes lost during exercise and to help retain
hydration, particularly for workouts lasting longer than 1-2 hours.
Cluster Dextrin® and glucose provide pre-exercise support by
providing rapidly available energy, helping to preserve glycogen
stores during activity. Cluster Dextrin®, also known as highly
branched cyclic dextrin, offers a unique form of carbohydrate
designed for rapid yet sustained energy to enhance endurance
and delay fatigue. In a double-blind crossover trial involving
24 men, those supplemented with Cluster Dextrin® had a lower
rate of perceived exertion at 30 and 60 minutes compared to
men supplemented with maltodextrin or glucose. In another
experimental trial involving 7 elite swimmers, supplementation
with 1.5 g/kg body weight of Cluster Dextrin® significantly promoted
endurance compared to a comparable glucose solution. It may also
enhance fat burning compared to other forms of carbohydrate.
Supplementation with Cluster Dextrin® resulted in an increased
release of non-esterified fatty acids compared with maltodextrin,
suggesting enhanced fatty acid release from the adipose tissue for
use as energy. Ribose is included in the formula to support peak
ATP production for rapid energy repletion during intense exercise.
Vitamin C is an important antioxidant and free radical scavenger.
Exercise studies indicate that it protects proteins from oxidative
stress as well as supports muscle function and comfort.*
What Is The Source?
Calcium, magnesium, sodium, chloride and potassium are from
elemental ore. Citrate and ribose are derived from corn dextrose
fermenation. Malic acid is synthetically produced. Cluster Dextrin®
and glucose are derived from corn. Natural flavor is derived from
lemon and lime.
Recommendations
Pure Encapsulations® recommends 1 serving mixed in 8-10 oz water,
20 minutes before intense exercise, or as directed by a health
professional.
Are There Any Potential Side Effects Or
Precautions?
In a small number of instances, diarrhea, gastrointestinal
discomfort, nausea, and headache have been reported with ribose
supplementation. Ribose may have a hypoglycemic effect, which
appears to be transient and clinically non-significant. It is advised
that diabetics be supervised closely by their healthcare practitioner.
Large amounts of magnesium may cause loose stools. If pregnant or
lactating, consult your physician before taking this product.
Are There Any Potential Drug Interactions?
At this time, there are no known adverse reactions when taken in
conjunction with medications. Consult your physician for more
information.
