Summary

This trial aims to test how well a drink containing electrolytes and glucose can help people rehydrate after exercising and losing fluids. Previous research shows that drinks with carbohydrates and electrolytes are better at rehydr

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-60 who exercise at least twice a week and have maintained a stable weight (less than 5 pounds change) over the last two months. It's not suitable for those with night shift work, on thyroid meds, past bariatric surgery, or with heart, kidney, liver diseases. Also excluded are those in another study or weighing over 110 pounds.
What is being tested?
The study tests how well different drinks rehydrate after exercise-induced dehydration: plain water versus Liquid IV Sugar Free and Liquid IV Hydration Multiplier—both containing electrolytes and glucose which may enhance fluid intake and reduce urine output.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed for this trial, potential ones from electrolyte-glucose drinks can include nausea, bloating, or an upset stomach due to the ingredients used to improve hydration.
