History and Usage:

Accelerade delivers rapid hydration along with natural protein to reduce muscle fatigue and help muscles recover faster after exertion. A major independent study demonstrated that Accelerade increased endurance 29% and decreased muscle damage 83% when compared to a leading sports drink. Research has also shown that the ratio of 4 grams of carbohydrates to 1 gram of protein is ideal for replenishing muscles during exercise.

Accelerade’s patented formula provides this precise 4-to-1 ratio, helping to minimize muscle breakdown by enhancing the synthesis of muscle tissue and improving protein balance. Accelerade was developed by six of America’s leading exercise physiologists to provide superior hydration, reduced muscle fatigue and faster muscle recovery.
