Accelerade Accelerade Sports Drink - 60 Serving Canister description

ACCELERADE Sports Drink maximizes the energy dynamic during exercise to help you train longer and harder without feeling as sore afterwards. Like conventional sports drinks, ACCELERADE supplies the carbohydrates and electrolytes necessary for rehydrating and replenishing spent muscles. Unlike conventional sports drinks, ACCELERADE contains a patented 4 to 1 ratio of carbohydrate to protein. This speeds the movement of carefully balanced simple and complex carbohydrates into your muscles for rapid and sustained energy. ACCELERADE also contains essential antioxidants to reduce post-exercise muscle damage. With 60-servings of powder, you'll have enough performance-improving sports drink to last you at least two months.

This drink is satisfying to the taste buds. I can honestly say that I feel fresh again sooner after workouts than I did before A C C E L E R A D E!!!

Maybe I've bought into the marketing pseudo-science, but I could swear that on long endurance events (2 to 12 hours), I feel that I have more energy when I use drinks with protein added, like Accelerade. I also think this makes a really great recovery drink -- really handy for getting some protein in you fast after exercise. The only reason I wouldn't give this five stars is that IMHO, the drink is too acidic. I think they've concentrated too much on trying to make it taste good. That said, I have plenty of triathlete friends who use this all the time for both racing and training.

This has been my go to energy/recovery drink for my long workouts. Even though it seems expensive it is a better bargain than gatorade, powerade, or any other mainstream sport drink. Dollar for dollar you are getting a much better bargain with accelerade, its better for you with the 4:1 carbs to protein blend, and it tastes pretty good too.
