Sport Drinks: Nutrition Facts and Calories
Sport drinks are beverages created to help hydrate and replace electrolytes lost during intense or prolonged physical activity. They typically contain water, carbohydrates (sugars), and electrolytes such as sodium and potassium. These drinks are different from energy drinks, which often include stimulants like caffeine. They are generally intended for use during or after exercise, not as everyday beverages. When choosing a sport drink, it's helpful to check the Nutrition Facts label. Pay attention to the amount of added sugars. The 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans suggest limiting added sugars. Sport drinks often provide carbohydrates for energy, but some may contain high amounts of added sugars. Also, look at the sodium content. Sodium is an important electrolyte that helps the body retain fluids and is lost through sweat. The FDA's Daily Value for sodium is 2,300 mg. Checking the ingredient list can also show the types of sugars used and other ingredients. All values are shown per 100 g so products can be compared.
