Q1. ________ have high levels of carbohydrates.

1. Isotonic drinks
2. Hypotonic drinks
3. Hypertonic drinks
4. All of the above

ANSWER – 3. Hypertonic drinks

• Explanation – Hypertonic drinks have high levels of carbohydrates. Carbohydrate content is significant in hypertonic drinks. After exercise, hypertonic drinks can be used to supplement daily carbohydrate intake and replenish muscle glycogen stores. Long-distance activities necessitate high amounts of energy, which can be met with hypertonic drinks consumed during exercise. When used to replace fluids during exercise, hypertonic drinks should be combined with isotonic liquids.
