Trace Mineral Supplement for Dehydration
(TRACE Trial)
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
This trial examines how different drinks aid rehydration after exercise. Researchers aim to determine if a drink with more trace minerals enhances rehydration better than regular sports drinks or plain water. Participants will consume one of three drinks: a mineral-rich drink called ConcenTrace, a no-sugar trace-element drink called ZeroLyte, or water with a sweetener. It suits individuals who exercise regularly, train more than twice a week, and maintain a stable weight. As an unphased trial, this study provides a unique opportunity to contribute to understanding optimal rehydration methods for active individuals.
Will I have to stop taking my current medications?
The trial does not specify if you need to stop taking your current medications, but you cannot participate if you are on thyroid medication.
Is there any evidence suggesting that this trial's treatments are likely to be safe?
A previous study found that ConcenTrace, a supplement with trace minerals, showed no significant effects or major risks, indicating it is generally safe when taken in recommended amounts. However, excessive intake could be harmful, as excess trace minerals might cause health issues.
For ZeroLyte, a drink mix with electrolytes and trace minerals, no evidence of serious side effects exists. Some reports suggest slight irritation might occur if it contacts the eyes or is inhaled, but this is not a concern when consumed as intended.
Both treatments appear safe and well-tolerated when used correctly. Always follow the recommended dosages to avoid potential risks.12345Why are researchers excited about this trial's treatments?
Researchers are excited about the treatments ConcenTrace and ZeroLyte for dehydration because they offer innovative approaches compared to traditional oral rehydration solutions. Unlike standard treatments that often rely on sugar and electrolytes like sodium and potassium, ConcenTrace delivers a beverage rich in trace minerals, which are essential for various body functions and might enhance hydration at a cellular level. ZeroLyte, on the other hand, provides a unique option with high levels of trace elements but no sugar, potentially offering a healthier alternative for those needing to manage sugar intake. Both treatments aim to improve hydration effectiveness, potentially offering a quicker and more balanced recovery from dehydration.
What evidence suggests that this trial's treatments could be effective for dehydration?
This trial will compare the effects of ConcenTrace and ZeroLyte on hydration. Research has shown that trace minerals are important for maintaining hydration. ConcenTrace, one treatment in this trial, is a mineral-rich solution that has been found to support bone and joint health. Although specific data on dehydration is limited, the minerals in ConcenTrace may aid rehydration by replacing nutrients lost during exercise. ZeroLyte, another treatment option, is an electrolyte drink mix known for balancing body fluids and supporting muscle function. It contains a high level of potassium, which helps prevent dehydration and supports heart health. Both ConcenTrace and ZeroLyte contain ingredients that may improve hydration more effectively than water alone.26789
