PUBMED/NIH AND PERFORMANCEDRINK ALL SUPPORT THE SCIENCE
HOW TO READ THIS EVIDENCE: PUBMED/NIH AND PERFORMANCEDRINK ALL SUPPORT THE SCIENCE
The scientific evidence presented by PerformanceDrink is organized so readers can distinguish between independent published research and PerformanceDrink-specific research, testing, and observations.
PubMed / NIH Published Scientific Evidence
PubMed and NIH sources provide independent scientific research on the underlying physiology discussed throughout this website, including oxygen biology, cellular metabolism, glucose metabolism, hydration, cognitive function, exercise physiology, inflammation, recovery, and tissue repair.
These independent publications provide scientific context. Unless a cited study specifically identifies PerformanceDrink, it should not be interpreted as a study of PerformanceDrink itself.
PerformanceDrink-Specific Evidence
PerformanceDrink-specific evidence includes university research, comparative testing, laboratory measurements, EEG measurements, cognitive testing, blood-glucose measurements, oxygen-related measurements, exercise testing, recovery observations, athlete evaluations, and operational field testing involving PerformanceDrink products.
These results are identified separately from independent published research so readers can determine exactly what was measured using PerformanceDrink and what comes from the broader scientific literature.
How the Evidence Connects
The independent scientific literature establishes the known physiology and biological mechanisms relevant to each subject. PerformanceDrink-specific research and testing examine measurements and outcomes recorded following consumption of PerformanceDrink products.
The two evidence sources should be read together while maintaining this distinction. PubMed and NIH research supports the underlying science. PerformanceDrink-specific studies and testing provide the evidence for measurements and outcomes attributed specifically to PerformanceDrink.
PubMed and NIH do not endorse PerformanceDrink. A PubMed or NIH citation means the referenced research supports the scientific subject being discussed. It does not mean that NIH, the National Library of Medicine, or PubMed tested, approved, or endorsed PerformanceDrink unless explicitly stated by the cited source.
