It turns out that drinking sports drinks with a mix of carbohydrates and protein is better than a sports drink with carbs alone. That was the conclusion of John Berardi and a team of researchers when they studied the impact of different sports drinks on cyclists and their recovery times from workouts.
Berardi, founder and Chief Scientific Officer of Precision Nutrition, was recently interviewed by ScientistLive. During the interview, Berardi explains the study and its results as well as some of the mechanics that drive those results. The entire interview is a great read for Players who want to get a detailed understanding of what goes on in their bodies when they consume sports drinks.
