Abstract
The physiological assessment of osmotic pressure of sport drinks is ve ry much in dispute. Therefore an effort has been made to show the pres ent level of knowledge in the paper to hand. This paper shows that the osmotic pressure is an important factor besides the water, carbonhydr ates (calories) and mineral substances. Sport drinks should be prefera bly within the osmotic pressure range.
