Research shows that dehydration can make the pain you’re experiencing feel worse

This is because when you are dehydrated, water goes straight to your brain, heart and vital organs to keep you alive as opposed to your tissues and joints.

This can contribute to painful inflammation as the tissues and joints stiffen and waste products such as lactic acid build up.

19 time Grand Slam winner, Rafael Nadal, has been using Totum Sport to overcome persistent cramping throughout his career. The addition of Totum Sport to Nadal’s nutrition plan has helped to support his recovery and fight off cramping for years, and is a staple of his routine.

Totum Sport prevents the drop in blood sodium that contributes significantly to cramp and muscle injuries. Studies have shown that Totum Sport reduces the build-up of lactic acid by 46%. This helps prevent muscle fatigue so the athlete remains strong throughout and performance is not hindered. When there is a build up of lactic acid, there is a risk of physical fatigue, muscle soreness and cramping, all of which impact performance.
