Teenagers: If you sweat a lot during exercise, such as 0.5 to 1 liter, you can supplement with sports drinks containing electrolytes and sugar.

Elderly people: The elderly generally do not exercise much and do not sweat much. Some of them also have certain chronic diseases. There is no need for them to supplement with sports drinks. They can supplement with appropriate amounts of mineral water, boiled water, tea, mung bean soup, milk, etc.

Obese people: For obese people, one of the purposes of exercise is to lose weight and consume excess energy reserves in the body. Therefore, do not supplement with drinks containing energy substances. If you sweat a lot, you can drink sugar-free drinks containing electrolytes.

Diabetic patients: Diabetic patients should perform regular, low-intensity exercise for a long time to help control blood sugar; at the same time, avoid high-intensity exercise to prevent large fluctuations in blood sugar.
