Carb plus Protein

Endurox R4 recovery drink mix features the patented 4:1 ratio of carbohydrate and protein. Research has shown a 4:1 ratio of carbohydrate to protein to be ideal. While protein is key, the amount of protein is what's important. Too much and it can't be processed by the body. Too little and it won't work like it should. Endurox R4 is proven to replenish muscle glycogen 128% faster and increase next-workout performance by 55% compared to a conventional sports drink. Studies have also found that it reduces post-exercise muscle damage by 36% and rebuilds muscle protein 38% better than a protein drink.*

Accelerade sports drink contains carbohydrates and protein in a patented 4:1 ratio to help athletes perform better and recover faster. The inclusion of just the right amount of protein facilitates rehydration by optimizing the absorption of fluid.* In 2006, researchers at St. Cloud University demonstrated that consuming Accelerade following cycling exercise significantly enhanced rehydration by 15% compared to a conventional sports drink and 40% compared to water.*
