Answer 5

An isotonic beverage is a sport drink whose osmolarity is between 250 mOsm/L and 340 mOsm/L. what is osmolarity? It is the concentration of particles in the blood. In this case, we are looking for a similar concentration of particles in the drink to what is found in the bloodstream( the human body has an average osmorality of 250 mOsm/L and 340 mOsm/L), so that its absorption will be faster and will require less extra energy from the body for its assimilation.
