If you’ve been searching for a drink to get you going during your workout, you may have found your answer in a bottle of Tamarindos.
Tamarinds, or tamarind juice, are a sweet drink made from the seeds of the cassava plant.
TamarIND is derived from a plant that grows in South America, and it is the perfect drink for any workout, says Dr. Jason P. Brown, a certified personal trainer and owner of Brown Athletic Performance in Chicago.
Tame the beast and you’ll be ready to lift off in no-time!
Drink up.
Drink is a key ingredient for a healthy workout.
The body has to absorb some of the carbon dioxide in the water before it can produce ATP.
This is what makes it a good fuel for the muscles.
When you have to drink the water to make ATP, your body is forced to conserve energy and the water is not as available to fuel the muscles, says Brown.
To get your body used to drinking the water, you need to drink it in moderation.
If you have a regular drink, you’ll get the benefits of the tamer water, but if you’ve recently started drinking the tamarinder, your blood sugar will be elevated, says Scott C. Krieger, a licensed clinical psychologist and founder of Kriegers Training Center in Fort Worth, Texas.
When your blood glucose levels are elevated, you should begin drinking in moderation, Krieber says.
Drinking the tmarindo has also been shown to help you burn calories faster, which can help you perform more efficiently during your workouts, says Krieer.
