Make's you want to ... I think it's all crap: * Prevents lactic acid buildup * Reduces perceived exertion * Reduces recovery time * Increases oxygen transfer to tissues * Reduces neural fatigue * Increases mental alertness What do they have to back these statements up? Almost always it's absolutely nothing. If you are only swimming a couple hours you likely don't even need the potassium and sodium (depending on your diet), only simple carbs. I don't see any sorbitol in there. The internet is loaded with crazy inflammatory stuff about aspartame, which has more than proven to be safe by millions of people. So the stuff about sorbitol is probably exaggerated, even if sorbitol isn't so good.
