POCARI SWEAT effectively maintains the ideal fluid balance in our bodies to keep us hydrated longer.
POCARI SWEAT quickly replenishes water and ions that your body needs and quenches every part of you.
An ion is a part of an electrolyte, the mineral salts that are naturally present in our body. Electrolytes in our bodies will break down into ions, both positive and negative, which are important in helping all the processes happening in our body. These electrolytes cannot be produced by the body itself, so they have to be replenished through the intake of food / drinks.
Our body fluid is salty in taste (e.g. tears and sweat).
In general, isotonic drinks consists of water-sugar-salt, as well as oral rehydration salts. The function of salts in isotonic drinks is to replace body ions that are lost along with the fluids, so that the fluid balance between water and ions is maintained. If we only drink water, the electrolyte levels in the body becomes too diluted causing the body to get rid of excess fluids. This can cause the body to become dehydrated (Voluntary Dehydration).
The fluid in our bodies contains not just water but also various ions. When we sweat, for example, we lose water and ions from our bodies. POCARI SWEAT contains a balance of water and ions that is close to that of body fluid, enabling smooth replenishment of lost moisture and ions. If you just drink water after sweating a lot, your body fluid becomes thin and diluted. In order to stop this trend, the body causes thirst to disappear, and sometimes stops absorbing water.
We do not recommend this. It is best to take medicines with plain cold or lukewarm water, and in accordance with their directions for dosage and administration.
There are no reports of POCARI SWEAT increasing the speed or extent of intoxication when consumed with alcohol. When you drink alcohol, 20% is absorbed in the stomach, and 80% is absorbed in the small intestine. Alcohol absorption is also affected by the food consumed with it, and by your physical condition. For example, if you drink on an empty stomach, the alcohol will be absorbed more quickly. Alcohol has a diuretic effect, making you prone to dehydration. Therefore, POCARI SWEAT is suitable for consumption when drinking alcohol, since it will help replenish your water and electrolytes.
There is no particular limit on the amount you can drink. If you are on a sugar or salt-restricted diet due to obesity or high blod pressure, consider your daily limits when drinking POCARI SWEAT, because it contains salt and sugar.
POCARI SWEAT is not a direct cause of diabetes. Diabetes is caused by variety of contributing factors. POCARI SWEAT is a soft drink that contains salt and sugar, providing about 25 kilocalories per 100 milliliters. For people at risk of diabetes, drinking POCARI SWEAT is not the only issue to consider. PLease consult with a doctor or medical expert concerning your entire lifestyle, including eating and drinking habits.
“POCARI” does not have any specific meaning, but conveys a light and bright feeling in Japanese. “SWEAT” is a reminder that the beverage replaces the important water and ions that are lost through perspiration.
Since POCARI SWEAT contains no chemical preservatives, you should finish the bottle on the same day you open it, if you touch your mouth to the bottle when drinking it. If you pour the beverage into another container before drinking it and keep the remainder in a refrigerator, we suggest finishing the bottle in two to three days. It is best to choose a size that you can finish in a reasonably short time.
The ingredients of POCARI SWEAT have been formulated for smooth absorption of water and ions (electrolytes) by the body. The purpose of the sugar content is to increase the speed of water absorption. If POCARI SWEAT is diluted with water, it may hamper this smooth absorption of water and ions (electrolytes). So diluting POCARI SWEAT is not recommended.
Since POCARI SWEAT contains vitamin C and other acidic ingredients, it falls on the acid side of the pH scale. On the other hand, its ingredients such as sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium turn alkaline once metabolized by the body. Since the volume of these alkaline-forming ingredients contained in POCARI SWEAT is greater than the acidic ones, it is classified as an alkaline-promoting beverage. Consequently, POCARI SWEAT is an alkaline food product which is acidic while in liquid form.
The top three centimeters of the plastic bottle* is filled with nitrogen gas. As part of efforts to make our plastic bottles lighter and help protect the environment, POCARI SWEAT is bottled using a positive-pressure aseptic filling method. Since the plastic of the bottle is now thinner, nitrogen gas is injected before capping, creating positive (outward) pressure inside the contained in order to strengthen it. So, even if the bottle isn’t filled right up to the cap, giving the appearance that there is not as much beverage in the bottle compared to other drinks, rest assured that it contains the correct amount of POCARI SWEAT. Since plastic bottled filled in this way are more enviromentally friendly, we call them “Eco Bottles.”
