After a long work out of over 30 minutes or so, you need to replenish yourself, with what has been lost .

The ONLY "Sports Drink" I Recommend, Dr. Mercola.
This post is a result of my remarks to a group of great people who work out and were discussing sports drinks. It took me awhile, but I found the coconut may just be able to help when you need more than just plain water to replenish what was used during your work out.
For most average exercisers and athletes, sports drinks are not only a waste of your money, but more importantly, can actually worsen the health of most who use them. Less than one percent of those who use sports drinks actually benefit from them. Most sports drinks are loaded with things you DON'T want, like refined sugars, artificial colors and chemicals, none of which are in natural coconut water.
