MATAWAN, N.J.--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--Weight management is one of the greatest challenges endurance athletes face during the first few months of the year. PacificHealth Laboratories, Inc. (OTCBB: PHLI), a nutrition technology company, today announced the national availability of Accelerade Hydro and Endurox® Restore, two low-calorie formulas for athletes who want the benefits of a premium sports performance drink with fewer calories and less sugar.

Surveys have shown that weight management is a key concern for endurance athletes. For professional triathletes and trainers such as six-time Hawaii Ironman world champion Dave Scott and professional triathletes Greg and Laura Bennett, Leanda Cave, Pip Taylor and Brooke Davison, a weight difference of five pounds can significantly impact race performance.

"Every pound counts during race season, so what I drink pre-season is just as important as what I eat," said Laura Bennett. "AcceleradeHydro and EnduroxRestore ensure that I get the proper hydration and energy I need without the excess calories for optimal performance and recovery."

The ability of any athlete to perform at his or her best is directly related to keeping appropriately fueled during exercise and recovering quickly after exercise. Both Accelerade Hydro and Endurox Restore contain the patented 4:1 ratio consisting of four parts carbohydrate to one part protein. More than 17 studies have documented that the 4:1 ratio improves endurance, provides rapid rehydration and helps muscles recover faster with less soreness.

With Accelerade Hydro, athletes have a low-calorie alternative to refuel during workouts. Containing 30% fewer calories and 55% less sugar than regular sports drinks, Accelerade Hydro is the top choice among endurance athletes who want the benefits of a proven sports performance drink with fewer calories. Accelerade Hydro is available at a suggested retail price of $39.99 for 50 servings and comes in fruit punch and lemonade flavors.

Formulated to help endurance athletes recover faster from workouts, Endurox Restore has nearly 50% less sugar and 50% fewer calories than the original recovery formula Endurox R4®. Elite and recreational athletes alike consider Endurox Restore an essential part of their post-exercise nutrition program. Endurox Restore is available at a suggested retail price of $39.99 for 25 servings and comes in flavors lemonade and tangy orange.
