How bad are sports drinks while training?
Too Much Sugar? What do you guys drink besides water throughout the day? |

In terms of other things to drink during the day - green tea, herbal tea, water with added lemon juice + mint leaves, water + added crystal light/diet koolaid or the occasional diet soda would all be ok. |

I currently am drinking three 8 oz. glasses of water with freshly squeezed lemon juice. What are the positve effects of this? (Seriously, I don't know. Pardon the ignorance. The restaurant I eat at serving all natural healthy food gives me this.) How does it specifically help? Thanks.

I heard lemon juice aids in weight loss.
Is this the case? |

Anyway.... I mentioned it for one main reason - and that was to add a little flavour to water (if you do not like the taste) because the question was in regards to alternatives to water.... However, on a "good for BB" note what lemon juice (along with vinegar) can do (due to the acetic acid) is - 1. Lowers the GI of the meal you are eating 2. Increases nutrient partitioning (via adding glucose uptake/insulin sensitivity) and therefore increases glycogen storage (esp. good PWO) 3. Increase leptin levels and sensitivity (not too sure how it does this) |
