Herbalife has recently launched a great
tasting, innovative and superior Isotonic sports drink “H30 Pro” which
we believe is the best product of its kind on the market, and has been
endorsed by two gold medallists at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. It is
formulated by Experts in sports nutrition at UCLA to help keep you:
- Hydrated by replacing fluid and
electrolytes which are lost through sweat
- Energized in your workout with energy
from carbohydrates (see below)
- Maximise absorption and antioxidant
protection
- Refreshing and clean subtle taste with
no artificial sweeteners, preservatives or flavouring
The H30 Pro Isotonic drink is based on
Isomatulose sugars, which is naturally derived from honey, thereby not
producing energy highs and lows, or produce any damaging health
effects, and produces a slower more constant energy release than
glucose. It's also:
- 3x higher in potassium supporting muscle
function and maintains the electrolyte balance
- 12x higher in calcium and also contains
magnesium, important to keep your muscles and bones strong, and
also stops muscle cramps
- Has 5 energy producing B vitamins
- Contains no artificial sweeteners,
flavourings or preservatives
- Helps protect the body's tissues and
immune system against the potentially damaging effect of free
radicals with the antioxidant vitamins C and E
Herbalife products continue to help
professional Athletes worldwide achieve optimum fuelling and recovery,
including the Football Clubs Inter Milan and LA Galaxy (David Beckhams
club). H3O Pro is not based on High Fructose Corn Syrup like some
other drinks.
Public health advocates are pushing for a
ban on the sale of high fructose corn syrup based sports drinks and
flavoured waters, warning that these drinks contain as much as
two-thirds the sugar of sodas, and more than three times the sodium.
In fact, sports drinks meant to rehydrate
the body are up to 30 times more erosive to your teeth than water due
to the type of sugar being glucose in the powder or drink.
High-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is the most prevalent sweetener used
in foods and beverages today, and has been clearly linked to the rise
in obesity and metabolic syndrome. Just like other sugars it disrupts
your insulin levels, and elevated insulin levels are going to increase
your risk of nearly every chronic disease known to man.
