What Should You Drink?

Sports drinks are meant to aid in hydration and replace vital nutrients lost during intense exercise. If you're just going for a morning jog or doing a moderate workout in the gym, water is fine. However, for workouts lasting more than an hour or taking place in extreme heat, a sports beverage will help your body replace sodium and electrolytes lost through excessive sweating. Sports drinks may also help prevent dehydration because they're more flavorful -- many people are more likely to keep on sipping a sports drink than plain water because it's tastier.
