FAQs

Sports drinks are designed to replace fluids faster than plain water, they also help replace lost electrolytes during exercise and sweating. Plus, they help replace lost glycogen stores so you can exercise for longer and harder.

We believe PeakFuel Performance Hydration is the easiest to drink and most balanced sports drink on the market. We have made it super easy to drink, it contains all four electrolytes needed during exercise and 5.5% carbohydrates for energy. It will absorb faster than plain water so you stay hydrated faster and for longer. Best of all it's natural and works in extreme endurance conditions. You will end up drinking more fluids on PeakFuel compared to other sickly sweet drinks.

We use sucrose and glucose in our Performance Hydration as they are needed to provide fuel for your body during exercise. You body has enough glycogen stores (energy) to last about 50 minutes during exercise after that it starts shutting down and you loose performance.PeakFuel Hydration contains 150 calories per 750ml (just 5.5% carbs) the carbohydrates help the drink absorb faster than plain water so you stay hydrated during your workout.Sports drinks that are low in carbohydrates are suitable for light training or exercise under 1 hour. Any exercise over an hour your body will start to be depleted in carbohydrates (glycogen) which your body uses as it's main source of fuel so to maintain energy during your workout it is recommended to consume a carbohydrate based sports drink to maintain energy, fluid and electrolyte levels during your training.

Electrolytes regulate our nerve and muscle function, our body's hydration, blood pH, blood pressure, and the rebuilding of damaged tissue. Various mechanisms exist in our body that keep the concentrations of different electrolytes under strict control.Electrolytes are important because they are what your cells and muscles use to maintain voltages across their cell membranes and to carry electrical impulses (signals for your muscles to contract and nerve signals) to other cells. Without electrolytes your body will not function. When you exercise your body uses electrolytes, especially sodium and potassium. These electrolytes must be replaced to keep the electrolyte concentrations of your body fluids constant. We use sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium in PURE to help combat the electrolyte lost during sport, this helps you exercise for longer, harder and easier.

Freeze Dried Fruit, Sucrose, Glucose, Sodium Chloride, Potassium Chloride, Magnesium Lactate, Calcium Citrate, Citric Acid and Vitamin C.We use real fruit for flavouring (freeze dried fresh fruit), our carbohydrates are Sucrose and Glucose (the fastest absorbing and most gentle on your stomach) for energy. Citric acid brings out the fruit taste and vitamin C is to help with shelf life.

If you are exercising for under an hour you will generally be fine with water to keep hydrated. You may require a sports drink after the first hour if you are doing a high intensity workout or racing. Your body needs carbohydrates, electrolytes and water to function well after about 50 minutes and this is why a sports drink is beneficial to your performance. PeakFuel is designed to replace carbohydrates, electrolytes and hydrate so you can perform at your best.
