Pre Exercise Honey Drink
Give your performance a lift, with 100% pure Australian honey. Studies have shown that honey works as well as most commercial energy gels, but without the artificial preservatives, colourings and sweeteners found in the gels. One study, at the University of Memphis Exercise and Sports Nutrition Laboratory*, confirmed that honey is one of the most effective forms of carbohydrate to eat just before exercise.
Ingredients
- 1 tbs honey
- 1 ltr water
- 1/2 lemon, sliced
Notes
You can simply eat a teaspoon or two of honey, however diluting in water will also help with your hydration before exercising. Adding some of your favourite fruits just make things that more fun!
