FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
Q1. What is the difference between isotonic and hypotonic sports drinks?
Isotonic sports drinks have a similar concentration of electrolytes and carbohydrates as human blood, making them easier to absorb during exercise. Hypotonic drinks have a lower concentration of electrolytes and carbohydrates, making them more suitable for hydration before or after exercise.
Q2. When should I consume protein supplements?
It's recommended to consume protein supplements within 30 minutes after your workout to aid in muscle recovery and growth. Protein can also be consumed throughout the day to meet your daily protein requirements.

Yes, we offer a variety of plant-based protein powders and energy bars that are suitable for vegetarians and vegans. Be sure to check the ingredient labels for specific dietary requirements.
Q4. Can I use sports drinks and energy gels during low-intensity activities?
Sports drinks and energy gels are primarily designed for high-intensity or prolonged physical activities. For low-intensity activities, plain water may be sufficient for hydration. However, if you prefer the taste or need additional carbohydrates, sports drinks can be consumed in moderation.
Q5. How do I choose the right protein powder for my needs?
Consider your dietary preferences (e.g., whey, casein, plant-based), desired protein content per serving, and flavor preferences. It's also important to consider the quality of the ingredients and any additional nutrients or supplements included in the powder.
Q6. Can I mix different sports nutrition products together?
While it's generally safe to mix different products, it's important to follow the recommended serving sizes and pay attention to the total calorie and nutrient intake. Consult with a sports nutritionist or healthcare professional if you have specific concerns or dietary restrictions.
