It is well established that post-exercise rehydration with electrolyte solutions is more effective than plain water. However, most commercially available drinks are high in electrolytes but lack some essential trace minerals. This study aims to examine the impact of a higher-electrolyte sports drink compared with a low-electrolyte, trace-mineral-rich solution and water on the time course and extent of rehydration after exercise-induced dehydration.
