The role of water in our body are giving cell life, where water is a carrier, distributing essential nutrients to cells as minerals, vitamins, and glucose. It also has chemical and metabolic reactions as it removes waste products including toxins that the organ cells reject and removes through urine and feces. Water is a transport of nutrients in the biochemical break down of what we eat. H2O regulates body temperature, it has a large heat capacity which helps limit changes in body temperature in a warm or cold environment. The elimination of water is an effective lubricant around joints and acts as a shock absorber for eyes, brain, and spinal cord. The goal of drinking fluids during exercise is to prevent dehydration and maintain performance. Fluids preferably with carbohydrates and electrolytes, should be consumed in small amounts every 15 to 20 minutes during exercise. Water and electrolytes serve very important roles in the functioning of the body and sweating can lead to excessive losses of both critical nutrients if not properly replaced. Dehydration and electrolyte imbalances can adversely impact health and exercise performance. The magnitude of fluid...

...101-Sec 103 Water Ad Analyzination Everyday many thoughts are placed in Ads to promote new ideas and new products to obtain different audiences’ attention . Ads have been around for many of years . The importance of advertisement is to promote the sales and products to seem more valuable than what they really are. Ads are used to give messages to different audience to make sells . By convincing the audience , the ad is trying to show why they are the best choice . By enhancing image , creating new logos and new catch phrases . Sidehustlenation.com says ,“SmartWater is vapor distilled water. From what I can understand, pretty much all water is vapor distilled, meaning it originally came from clouds.According to their website, most SmartWater is procured from municipal water systems. Read, “tap water.”Then the Smart Water goes through Glaceau’s proprietary filtration process, that removes just about everything from the water except two H’s and an O. SmartWater then adds back in the electrolytes calcium chloride, magnesium chloride, and potassium bicarbonate for taste. I think the for taste part is important because the nutrition label still reads 0 mg of sodium, and the amounts of electrolytes added have essentially zero gatorade-effect. In fact, the amount of electrolytes found in SmartWater is less than in other brands of non-electrolyte-added” bottled waters. The reason why it is called Smartwater is because it’s business of course! Globally, bottled water is a $100...

All data and insights contained in this report were produced using Zenith’s internal market databases and primary research. In compiling its research, Zenith relies on the goodwill and cooperation of companies active in the marketplace. During Zenith’s annual research into the UK soft drinks industry, over 250 soft drinks producers are regularly contacted. This includes larger branded operators, retailer own label specialists, contract packers and a significant number of smaller independent companies. Based on individual producer volumes for the year, market, sector and segment totals are calculated from the ‘bottom up’. At a sector and segment level, adjustments are then made for any double counting of contract and licensed bottling. Estimates for unauthorised soft drink imports sold through the ‘grey market’ are also included. This is more pronounced in categories such as energy drinks rather than dilute to taste drinks, for example. A complete picture of the UK soft drinks market across all sales channels is produced, through Zenith’s extensive study of the largest soft drinks companies, alongside small to medium sized operators and own label specialists.

...Gatorade had about 78.1% (based on sales) market share of sport drinks in the United States in the year of 2015. Consumers choose Gatorade over their biggest competitor-Powerade, since Gatorade better meets their consumers’ needs. Bryan found that there are some typical characteristics of Gatorade. It contains 160 milligrams of sodium and 45 milligrams of potassium per serving, while Powerade contains 150 milligrams and 35 milligrams. Gatorade contains table sugar and another simple sugar compound, while Powerade’s sugar content comes from high-fructose corn syrup. Gatorade is slightly superior at replacing lost electrolytes but inferior at replacing vitamins (Bryan, 2015). When you perspire, your body loses about 900 to 1400 milligrams of sodium per liter of sweat (Shirreffs & Maughan, 2000). Sodium plays an important role in human’s blood; sufficient sodium in the blood helps keep a sufficient balance of water in the blood. It is very important to replace the sodium and water lost when sweating. The sodium content in Gatorade is on average 450 milligrams per liter; however, Powerade only has 225 milligrams per liter, just half of Gatorade’s. Thus, in consumers’ point of view, Gatorade will do a better job to replace sodium lost in sweat compared to Powerade. This is one of the main reasons that consumers buy Gatorade not Powerade. Gatorade contains 6% of sugar, whereas Powerade contains 8% of sugar; Gatorade has a simple sugar compound, whereas Powerade’s sugar comes from...

Carbonated water was teamed with the new syrup to produce a drink that was at once "Delicious and Refreshing," a theme that continues to echo today wherever Coca-Cola is enjoyed. The company markets its beverages under various brand names, including Coca-Cola, Diet Coke, Fanta, and Sprite.

...Case Summary of Cola Wars Continue: Coke vs. Pepsi in the Twenty-First Century The Soft Drink industry has been assigned as the vehicle for tackling the topic of industry analysis and competitive dynamics. The case covers developments in the soft drink industry through 1993. It describes how the industry evolved into its current structure largely following Coca-Cola’s leadership. What is particularly interesting is determining why the major competitors in the industry have been able to earn above normal returns for close to 100 years, and why the industry is organized the way it is. The case allows us to analyze how the actions and reactions of competitors over time work to create their own industry structure. The case also allows us to examine how prior strategic commitments to particular strategies create competitive positions, which in turn constrain the future competitive moves of firms. Since competitive positioning determines a firm’s long-run performance, we need to thoroughly grasp the essentials of what makes some competitive positions and competitive strategies more viable, and others not, and why. Case Analysis of Cola Wars Continue: Coke vs. Pepsi in the Twenty-First Century 1. Why has the soft drink industry been so profitable? a. Since 1970 consumption grew by an average of 3% b. From 1975 to 1995 both Coke and Pepsi achieve average annual growth of around 10% c. American’s drank more soda than any other beverage d. Head-to-Head Competition between...
