POSTEXERCISE REHYDRATION IN MAN: THE EFFECTS OF OSMOLALITY AND CARBOHYDRATE CONTENT OF INGESTED DRINKS.
OBJECTIVE: This study investigated the effect of the osmolality and carbohydrate content of drinks on their rehydration effectiveness after exercise-induced dehydration. METHODS: Six healthy male volunteers were dehydrated by 1.9+/-0.1% of body mass by intermittent [...]
