Summary:
The following describes a scientifically designed recovery drink based off the following patent.
Provisional Patent (filed 2008): “Sports Drink Formula and Method of Providing Hydration Therapy.”
I am confident that once the public is educated, this drink will replace gatorade and powerade, which are merely sugars with electrolytes.

Introduction:
A revolution in today’s market, Nutra-Body's pledge is to deliver scientifically supported ingredients to create the only engineered sports drink that works in synergy with your body. What does this mean to an active individual? Fast recovery, lean muscle growth, mental and physical energy without the stimulants, and improved performance. It is our mission to educate the public and provide the consumer with a proven solution.
Although many competitors attempt to make similar claims, Nutra-Body's research and engineering team understands that it is the ingredients and its delivery methods that can make real claims, not the hype. Although many companies have a research team, it is our engineering team that places our products beyond the competitors. Albert Einstein said it best, “Scientists investigate that which already is; Engineers create that which has never been.” Nutra-Body’s engineering team utilizes the latest scientific findings to develop a sports drink formula that places all other sports drinks obsolete. Our team studies ingredient stability, timing, interactions, delivery methods, and effective amounts. It is Nutra-Body’s pledge to address each of these issues and guarantee ingredient potency through rigorous testing. All of these factors make the difference between a product that claims from one that delivers.
CAT-5 is formulated to address all the needs of an athlete. The drink addresses mental and physical fatigue, digestion, protein synthesis, hydration, free radicals, and macronutrient replenishment.
In the preferred exclusive formula, the percentage of each of the ingredients in the formula will be determined to ensure an overall solution that is hypotonic or isotonic for quick intestinal absorption.
The preferred formula was created to accomplish all of the claims below:
1. Enhance energy by maintaining and maximizing glycogen replenishment.1,2,3
2. Hydration by replenishing fluids and electrolytes.
3. Quick recovery by speeding up glycogen and nutrient replenishment.1,2,3
4. Maintain/build muscle by creating an anabolic/anti-catabolic state.4
5. Delay mental and physical fatigue.
6. Minimize digestive discomfort.
Unlike other competitor formulas, which often include simply glucose and electrolytes, the ingredients in this formula are specifically chosen to address the specific needs of an athlete. Furthermore, the very low osmolality of the carbohydrate solution allows the addition of extra nutrients while maintaining a hypotonic or isotonic solution.2
