Would you believe that this pack of jelly beans is just as effective as a sport drink like, say, Gatorade in improving exercise performance?
Popular jelly bean maker Jelly Belly has created Sport Beans, the energizing jelly bean. Each 1-ounce (28-gram) pack contains carbs, electrolytes (sodium and potassium, which are vital for fluid balance), and vitamins B and C, which other jelly beans don’t have. And according to a study made by the University of California Davis Sports Medicine Program, each bag of Sport Beans maintains blood sugar levels and improve exercise performance.
Imagine jogging or cycling and lugging an unwieldy bottle of sport drink versus a handy pack of sweet jelly beans!
