Doesn't taste like Lemon Lime at all! However is very drinkable when cold, not sweet (preferable since I mix it with Maltodextrin), mixes great with no sediment or residue. Loads of carbs & energy compared to other drinks such as isostar, but isostar gets one more point for taste

Maxim
Energy Drink
:
The Maxim Energy Drink provides your body with hydration and energy when you need it most. Ideally used before, during and after exercise, the Maxim Energy Drink is also helpful for anytime that you need a pick-me-up such as when studying, presenting an important meeting or travelling between time zones. A great antidote to fatigue and dehyration - Maxim Energy Drink!
Maxim Energy Drink is a powder which makes a refreshing sports drink when mixed with water. During exercise it is important to optimise your fluid balance and to ensure that the glycogen stock in your muscles does not get depleted.
A fluid loss of 2% of your body weight, can reduce your performance by 10%. Other effects of dehydration are cramps, headache and overheating.
During exercise you lose, other than fluid, also glycogen (carbohydrates stored in the muscles) and minerals. A depletion of your glycogen stock, can reduce your performance significantly. You can prevent this by drinking a hypotonic sports drink during exercise. Such a drink contains the ingredients your body needs to maintain fluid balance and energy levels.
Maxim Energy Drink has been developed as a hypotonic thirst quencher. Its optimal composition of maltodextrin, fructose, minerals and vitamins ensures an optimal hydration and fast energy supply. It optimises your performance and delays weariness.
Directions
The quantity of Energy Drink to consume during exercise depends on the individual athlete, the weather conditions, the intensity and duration of exercise. Nevertheless, we will give you some general guidelines:
Before and during exercise: Drink 200-500 ml just before exercise to start well-hydrated and then drink 200 ml every 15-20 minutes to maintain your fluid balance. When you are not used to drinking during exercise, try this during training. Increase the quantity you drink gradually to 200 ml per 15-20 minutes. It will improve your performance.
Drink 300 ml per 15-20 minutes during hot weather conditions and dilute the drink a bit more (40g powder per 750 ml water). During cold weather conditions it is better to make the drink a bit stronger (60g powder per 750 ml water).
After exercise: Drink approximately 500ml Energy Drink immediately after exercise to recuperate your fluid balance.
