possible to replace them with water alone.
To avoid dehydration and water intoxication while playing sports, experts recommend sports
drinks. They come in three categories.
Isotonic sports drinks contain a similar balance of water and other nutrients as in the human
body, including 6-8% sugar.
Hypertonic sports drinks contain less water and more sugar than the human body.

sports drinks on the market are isotonic.

plain water: carbohydrates and electrolytes. Carbohydrates help keep energy levels up, and a
proper balance of electrolytes (made up of sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, chloride,
phosphate,and hydrogen carbonate) is essential to well-being. Drinking a lot of fluids is essential for sports fitness.
