Children's bodies are very sensitive to loss of body fluids and the risk of dehydration is higher than in adults. When exercising in humid and warm environments, children tend to be more at risk than adults. Dehydration not only reduces performance but is also a health risk and therefore it is necessary to continuously replace these losses.

In children, the sense of thirst is not fully developed, sweat production is lower and contains fewer Na+ and Cl- ions. Therefore, less concentrated drinks with lower osmolality are used to hydrate children. Children need to drink sufficiently before physical activity, then every 10-15 min during activity and after activity to replenish fluid and energy losses. Optimal hydration depends on optimal sports performance not only for adults but also for children.

During normal training of children, we recommend a hypotonic PENCO^® Junior Sport Drink with an osmolality lower than that of normal blood plasma for rapid rehydration. The isotonic drink (approx. 300mOsm/kg) is suitable for prolonged high intensity exercise.

The relative energy requirements of walking and running are significantly higher in children than in adults. The higher energy requirement is partly covered by PENCO^® Junior Sport Drink, which supplies energy in the form of simple sugars and glucose polymers.

In addition, PENCO^® Junior Sport Drink helps to compensate for possible deficiencies of certain vitamins and minerals. Children especially need more iron and calcium, while young athletes also need to ensure a sufficient intake of other minerals ( Mg, Zn, J) or vitamins, especially vitamin C.
