We mainly obtain minerals from diet instead of drinking water. Each litter of mineral water only contains a small amount of minerals. If we only count on mineral water for minerals in take, we need to drink a few thousands liters of mineral water everyday. Thus, it is recommended to have a balanced diet.
The amount and content of water loss varies from different exercise intensity, thus we need to intake the suitable drinks for replenishment.
Low intensity exercise (e.g. walking and bowling) |
Replenish by plain water |
Moderate intensity exercise (e.g. cycling and jogging for 30 minutes) |
Replenish by plain water and sport drinks |
High intensity exercise (e.g. endure exercise for over 60 minutes) |
Replenish by plain water and sport drinks |
