Eating well plays a critical role in keeping sport fun, more so for highly active children. Consuming enough water and other fluids is key t o optimal performance in sport. Most children do not consume sufficient fluids throughout the day, as they are playing during breaktime (as we all know, not even eating their packed lunches!) and they do not always recognise thirst. They start their afternoon sport activities already dehydrated! This happens easily, especially in the warm South African climate.

Electrolytes

Electrolytes are essential minerals to help your kid stay hydrated. These minerals help balance the optimal amount of fluids inside the body and help to regulate important biological functions, ranging from muscle contraction to nerve activity.
