BBC Panorama - Powerade - Does It Work?

[@danmart449]

I drink these when I play rugby, but I don't drink them for the "energy" I drink em afterwards so I don't get a migraine

[@theun4giv3n]

Same here. I drink some before hand to get the body well hydrated and then drink afterwards also. Helps to keep the migraines away. I am not bothered about the energy boost but keeping hydrated.

[@N7seven63]

I drink these cuz there delicious

[@sohamgamezzz4177]

Me too

[@Undecided_]

powerade cheaper than water here... so why not?

[@bakirev]

I just bought two for the free sports bottle. It would cost about the same just to get a sport bottle and I think it looks cool.

[@WarChortle]

I think part of the reason of sports drinks isn't the acute affect of performance... a lot of the time it's more about recovery.

[@ethelberht985]

Special formulated which is actually just pure sugar

[@interestmedia]

Thanks. If you watch the whole documentary on the BBC they mention BCAA's too.

[@callumwalker212]

Idk if I skipped a bit through the video. But I don’t know if this expaline about hypotonic,isotonic and hypertonic and how each type is used.

A jam sandwich has around 50-60 grams of carbs, just like the sports drink, but in a different form. Apples and oranges. Eat what you enjoy, just get the carbs.

[@xCharbel]

u want a sports drink? ... 1litre of water... 2-3 teaspoons of sugar.. add some salt for the isotonic part THERE YOU GO. free from the pantry

[@dga5000]

Interesting segment. So basically it does little except for elite athletes and even then it is negligible.

[@masonnix9707]

Water>Anything that comes from Coca-Cola

[@Ace01234k]

Worst drink to have before sport gives you a bad ass stitch

[@Otozer30]

[@daynaholgate4839]

Powerade dehydrates better than water! Hmm 🤔 that’s a lie...

[@HalooTheEpokGaemer]

3:23 : Jesse! What are you doing? Where is the performance enhancing meth?

[@xCharbel]

Not salt... it's isotonic? Do you even understand what isotonic means...

[@HenryTheBoilermaker3rdYear]

Manny Pacman drinks this.

[@gammawave1739]

Manny paquio, Codename: Pac-Man. I got a pacman light from walmart that is shaped like pacman, it was only 7dollars, the LEDs in it are not that bright though they should have made it see through so the light can shine through it

[@xCharbel]

[@AlanTrades]

No significant? Significance is relative
