PERFORMANCE SETE® contains a scientifically formulated concentration of carbohydrates (glucose) and electrolytes. The quantity and ratio of glucose and electrolytes have been chosen in order to optimize the rate at which these substances can be used by the muscles. Solutions, which are marginally hypotonic (that is are below the osmolality of the body), are known to be emptied quickly from the stomach and have the potential to be absorbed the most rapidly. (Leiper, 1998). The composition of carbohydrates in PERFORMANCE SETE® enables a constant release and supply of glucose into the blood, enabling glycogen sparing in the muscles, helping to delay the feeling of exhaustion.
In order to help counteract losses in plasma electrolytes PERFORMANCE SETE® contains the electrolytes: sodium (Na), potassium (K), magnesium (Mg), and chloride (Cl). Endurance performance relies upon the balanced interplay of electrolytes, without which performance can be compromised, cramps may develop, or premature symptoms of fatigue may occur.
The adaptogenic herbal extract Eleutherococcus helps to increase resistance to the added psycho-physical stress that exercise can place on the body. This makes PERFORMANCE SETE® valuable for sports where increased physical endurance and the capacity to resist to fatigue are extremely important.
Indications
PERFORMANCE SETE® is rapidly absorbed, releasing glucose and electrolytes into the blood stream to sustain long-duration performance. This product is suitable for use during training and competition.
Instructions
Dissolve 1 sachet into approximately 500-600ml water. Consume 50-100ml of the solution at regular intervals every 15-20 minutes. For prolonged activities, we recommend that you do not take more than 800ml of solution per hour in order to avoid gastro-intestinal upset. However, gastric tolerance is highly subjective in each individual and so optimal tolerance and use should be practiced in training.
