Sport and hydration
Since the health crisis, general well-being has become a major concern for the French. Dietary habits and the democratisation of physical activity are in the spotlight, and today 1 in 4 French people go running, for example.
SPORT AND NUTRACEUTICALS
To meet the specific needs and objectives of all these athletes, the food supplement market is diversifying and innovating. Whether the aim is to fill up on energy, optimise physical performance or promote recovery, there is a nutraceutical complex for everyone.
ENERGY BOOST
To be at your best during your training sessions, it is interesting to turn to mixtures of vitamins and minerals or ingredients known for their toning effects such as ginseng or guarana, rich in caffeine.
OPTIMAL RECOVERY
To respond to muscular fatigue, there’s nothing like filling up on amino acids, creatine and protein, and for the more daring, a cold bath.
JOINT COMFORT
There are active ingredients known for their anti-inflammatory and joint health effects, such as chondroitin, glucosamine and collagen.
FOCUS ON HYDRATION
Water is the main constituent of the human body, representing 75 to 80% of our body composition.
It is recommended to consume 1.5 litres of water per day, as it is essential to the body and is involved in many physiological functions, transport and waste elimination.
What is dehydration?
It is a deficit in body water, linked either to water losses, or to a reduction in intake, or to both. It results in an increase in plasma osmolarity. The sensation of thirst is a warning signal that comes into play when the body is already dehydrated. It is therefore important to drink small amounts throughout the day.
STAY HYDRATED DURING SPORT
Fill up on electrolytes with drinks such as coconut water, birch or maple sap, which are rich in electrolytes.
If you feel like putting on a pair of trainers between two barbecues this summer, don’t forget your gummies booster to accompany your physical activity.
