About this trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the efficacy of two investigational products for promoting post-exercise hydration in recreationally active healthy adults. The main question it aims to answer is: Does consumption of each investigational product (IP) beverage, compared to control beverages, result in differences in blood hematocrit and serum osmolality at 0.5, 2, 4, and 8 hours post-exercise in recreationally active healthy adults? Researchers will compare two IPs to control beverages to see if the IPs are effective for supporting post-exercise hydration. Participants will be required to consume the IPs, as well as control beverages. Participants will also complete questionnaires, undergo an exercise challenge, and record their food and beverage intake.
