Sports drinks: the advantages and benefits

Sports drinks are an essential part of sports nutrition, as they support athletic performance when properly chosen and correctly consumed. They help to compensate the loss of fluids and important nutrients, provide quickly available energy and electrolytes, support regeneration or have special functionalities (improvement of acid buffering, fat metabolism, etc.). Sport drinks from SPONSER® are high-quality drinks with the best tolerability, as they are tailored to the needs of athletes and have been developed with the support of science.

Sports drinks for any purpose

Whether you are looking for sports drinks for hydration, for energy or for mineral replenishment, you have a lot of options when you choose SPONSER®. ISOTONIC, COMPETITION®, ULTRA COMPETITION or LONG ENERGY help to compensate the loss of nutrients through sweating and supply the body with a mixture of different carbohydrates that supply the body with quickly available, well-tolerated energy. The sports drinks in our Energy & Endurance line are specially formulated so that they are easy to digest and do not burden the stomach during exercise. If you are looking for a sports drink without carbohydrates, ELECTROLYTES is the perfect choice. These low-calorie effervescent tablets, as well as the sports drinks CARNITIN 1000 Mineral Drink with L-carnitine and minerals, or LOW CARB BURNER are recommended for anyone on a diet or training low-glycogen and fat metabolism. With our Sports Drink Advisor tool, every athlete will find the right drink for their individual needs and can add additional functions if required.

Drinks and shakes with protein and amino acids

Protein drinks play a major role in the product range of SPONSER®. In addition to classic recovery products such as RECOVERY SHAKE, RECOVERY DRINK or PRO RECOVERY, which provide a high-quality protein shake to support regeneration, we offer a wide range of protein drinks with amino acids to build and maintain muscle mass, such as WHEY ISOLATE 94, MULTI PROTEIN, PREMIUM WHEY HYDRO, WHEY TRIPLE SOURCE PROTEIN or MASS GAINER. Furthermore, specific target groups will also find specially tailored protein drinks: SENIOR PROTEIN for silver agers, VEGAN PROTEIN for vegans, LOW CARB PROTEIN SHAKE for those on a diet, ULTRA PRO for ultra-athletes, etc. SPONSER® sports drinks are available in a broad variety of flavours.

FAQs on sports drinks, flavours, minerals

The PDF sport drinks in comparison shows the characteristics, properties and usage of each SPONSER® sports drink in a clear overview.

Losing weight means avoiding calories. Ideal thirst quenchers for these cases are: The electrolyte drink ELECTROLYTES without any carbohydrates. The low-calorie CARNITIN 1000 Mineral Drink sports drink with L-carnitine and the minerals calcium, magnesium, iron and zinc for fat metabolism and muscle function. Plus the carbohydrate-free LOW CARB BURNER with activating ingredients.

If you are looking for a caffeine kick like energy drinks offer, ACTIVATOR 200 is the right choice. It provides 200 mg of caffeine per ampoule (25 ml), which is 2½ times as much as conventional energy drinks (80 mg of caffeine per 250 ml). Also interesting: PRE-WORKOUT BOOSTER before intensive training sessions to support concentration and performance, for improved pump, muscle building and recovery.

BASIC MINERALS supports the regulation of the acid-alkaline balance, especially during intensive training phases. Many athletes also use alkaline salt in connection with cramps, or to prepare for multi-day competitions. The alkaline mineral salt mixture contains minerals such as potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron and zinc.

All of our sports drinks listed in our sport drinks in comparison overview are gluten and lactose-free. With the exception of LONG ENERGY, which contains 5-10% protein depending on the chosen flavour, all of them are also appropriate in a vegan nutrition.

Isotonic drinks such as ISOTONIC have the same concentration of particles in solution as the blood, which means that they can be absorbed quickly from the body. Hypotonic sports drinks such as COMPETITION®, on the other hand, have a lower concentration than blood and can therefore be absorbed even faster. In terms of their ingredients, both drinks consist of a broad mix of carbohydrates (including waxy maize, rice, dextrose, maltodextrin, sucrose) with different glycaemic indices and essential minerals. Thanks to its acid-free composition and very mild flavouring, COMPETITION® is also ideal for endurance athletes, both in high concentrations and during high-intensity exercise.
