Tests treatment safety and results for Hydration Status
Official title A Clinical Trial to Explore the Efficacy of Two Investigational Products on Post-Exercise Hydration in Recreationally Active Healthy Adults
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07564661
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the efficacy of two investigational products for promoting post-exercise hydration in recreationally active healthy adults. The main question it aims to answer is: Does consumption of each investigational product (IP) beverage, compared to control beverages, result in differences in blood hematocrit and serum osmolality at 0.5, 2, 4, and 8 hours post-exercise in recreationally active healthy adults?
