In September 2017, we conducted a study with 7 triathletes in the medical center of the sports club Reebok Sport Club La Finca. Coordinated by the cardiologist Cristian Casseus Schurig and Dr. María Jesús Núñez Martí medical director of the center and specialist in sports medicine.
Said study consisted in testing stresses with exhaled gases under normal hydration with tap water and 2 months later during a week hydrated with Alkanatur alkaline water. The athletes were during that period in a stage of training and competition.
The hydration with Alkanatur Alkaine Water on triathletes, demonstrated a significant increase of the time to reach the anaerobic threshold, expressed in a delay in the appearance of fatigue. Thanks to the calculation of the area between ventilatory thresholds (VT2VE).
The analysis of blood lactate after maximal exercise also showed a significant decrease in athletes hydrated with alkaline water. Compared to those who did not, reflecting greater muscle recovery after exercise, key in athletes with high training loads.
Conclusion:
The hydration with Alkanatur alkaline water, increases the performance of the athlete. Constituting a simple and healthy ergogenic aid as it also provides high concentrations of antioxidants, crucial to combat the high oxidative stress.
Another aid is also the minerals that it contributes, with the high concentration of magnesium fundamental in the neuromuscular axis.
