NECTAR
Nectar is the energy and hydration brand launched from the creators of popular recovery brand For Goodness Shakes. Predominantly carbohydrate based, their products are designed to fuel exercise from begining to end, whilst also maintaining proper hydration with added electrlytes and increasing aerobic performance. For those involved with activity and sports including running, cycling, tennis, football and rugby, where endurance is crucial to performance, Nectar can provide the required energy to ensure you're at the top of your game.
How can Nectar help fuel exercise?
During exercise, your glycogen reserves are utilised to release energy into the blood and used by the working muscle. Once these are depleted, fat and protein are burnt instead, and this can lead to muscle breakdown. It's therefore important to both begin exercise with high muscle glycogen stores, and also to top them up during exercise, to prevent them from becoming depleted. Nectar Fuel is a high GI carbohydrate fuel source which will be absorbed quickly into the blood stream for a rapid source of energy.
How can Nectar help prevent dehydration?
Drinking fluids rich in electrolytes can help to prevent dehydration. Being hydrated is essential for optimal performance. Both Nectar Fuel and Nectar Hydro are rich in electrolytes, containing all 5-ions: calcium, chloride, magnesium, potassium and sodium. In terms of hydation, electrolytes are responsible for maintaining fluid balance inside cells, vital for human health and exercise performance. Dehydration has been shown to cause muscle cramps, dizziness and fatigue, all of which can result in a decrease in performance.
