Description
What makes ACCELERADE breakthrough is that it is
the first sports drink that contains protein in
combination with carbohydrate. And not just any amount
of protein. Research has shown that the ideal ratio is 4
grams of carbohydrate to 1 gram of protein which is the
amount found in ACCELERADE's patented formula.
Protein at this level actually
increases the amount of carbohydrate that gets into the
muscle during exercise. More energy into the muscle
gives you more endurance, which is exactly what sports
scientists at the University of Texas found when they
compared ACCELERADE to a conventional sports drink. The
researchers showed that protein-powdered ACCELERADE
extends endurance up to 24% compared to a conventional
sports drink and up to 57% compared to water.

Recovery, The Key To Peak Performance
The other advantage of protein in a
sports drink is that it speeds muscle recovery.
Everyone, whether a professional athlete or a weekend
warrior, experiences muscle soreness after a workout.
There are 3 causes.
One, muscle
protein is damaged as a natural consequence of exercise.
Muscles need protein to start the re-building process.
Because ACCELERADE is the only sports drink that
contains protein it gives your muscles a jump on the
repair process.
Additionally, during
extended exercise, up to 15% of the muscles' energy
comes from the breakdown of muscle protein. Having
protein in a sports drinks spares the breakdown of
protein from the muscle. The result a quicker recovery.
The third cause is the build up of
free radicals. These molecule attack and damage muscle
protein. This is why ACCELERADE contains vitamins C and
E, which have been shown to reduce free radical build
up.
