First Endurance EFS Energy - Endurance - Electrolytes!
EFS (Formerly E3) is an energy drink at the forefront of endurance nutrition
that combines the latest clinical research with input from elite endurance
athletes. Containing an ideal blend of simple and complex carbohydrates, amino
acids, antioxidants and electrolytes, EFS provides endurance athletes the
nutrients they need to fuel working muscles and increase endurance during
exercise.
Energy: Consuming carbohydrates during prolonged exercise enhances
performance by supplying energy for muscles to use when glycogen stores begin to
drop. EFS was specifically formulated to deliver the ideal blend of complex
carbohydrates, glucose (dextrose) and sucrose for energy. Clinical research
shows a combination of carbohydrates is better than a single source for the
absorption and utilization of blood glucose (26, 27, 28, 30). EFS also provides
three different high-glycemic sources of carbohydrates for immediate energy and
easy digestion during long and intense workouts. The low osmolality of the EFS
energy drink and ideal 7% carbohydrate solution provides superior fluid
absorption. Clinical research shows that energy drinks mixed between 6-8% offer
the optimal absorption of both carbohydrates and fluid for endurance racing and
training (31,32).

Endurance: EFS is the first endurance drink to be fortified with
clinically effective doses of the amino acids Glutamine, Leucine, Iso-leucine
and Valine. These key amino acids have been shown to improve glycogen
re-synthesis and delay central (mental) fatigue through their positive influence
on the tryptophan/branched chain amino acid ratio (2,3,4,5, 6, 10). Researchers
theorize that it is these amino acids, not complete proteins, which provide
added performance gains to ingesting carbohydrates alone. Because EFS is
fortified with free-form amino acids (not complete proteins) it's a light, easy
to digest, great-tasting solution to heavier protein drinks. EFS is also
fortified with 200% RDA of vitamin C to enhance the body's immune function,
fight free radicals and keep you healthy for future training and racing.

Electrolytes: Fluid loss plays a major factor in performance. Studies
show that when you lose 2-3% of the body's fluid through sweat, performance
decreases by up to 7% (1,7,8, 9,34 ). This can be the difference between winning
and not even finishing. Electrolytes promote the absorption of water during
exercise. When you sweat, you lose essential electrolytes, which can result in
cramping and dehydration (1,7,9,34). The transfer of nutrients and water in and
out of the cell known as cellular respiration requires all five electrolytes in
a precise balance for maximum cellular efficiency (1,7,9,34). Dedicated
endurance athletes require much higher levels of electrolytes than can be found
in most drinks (7,9,34). EFS delivers all five electrolytes in higher amounts
than any other product on the market while still remaining isotonic.
