Accelerated dehydration by hot weather rises the importance of sport drinks. But balancing with pure water is difficult.
Decreased salt concentration induces hyponatremia and dehydration.
12-13% of Boston Marathon finishers suffered from hyponatremia
Sugar contained in sports drinks rises the risk of decayed teeth and high blood sugar.
49% of elite athletes have untreated tooth decay. 87% of them regularly use sports drinks.

Performance decline by 3% dehydration to weight equals that of DUI.
[Performance Decline]
1% dehydration to weight: -12% 3% dehydration to weight: -25%
What a Dangerous Idea!!
