Sports Drinks Improve Performance in Stop and Go, High-Intensity Sports

Attention sports moms: still skeptical that sports drinks actually do what they say they do - help increase endurance for young athletes in stop-and-go, high-intensity team sports like soccer, football, ice hockey, basketball, volleyball, and lacrosse - and aren't just advertising hype? Well now you don't have to take their word for it, there's scientific proof.

Time to rush out to the nearest supermarket to stock up on energy drinks for your young athlete. Right?

football, ice hockey, basketball, volleyball, and lacrosse, actually help young athletes play better, longer.
