  • Reducing muscle soreness with glucosamine compositions
    Patent number: 9089156
    Abstract: Edible compositions, such as sports drinks which limit muscle soreness, and methods of making and using the same are provided. Existing food products are commonly used during exercise to quickly replace fluids and electrolytes lost by sweating and/or to supply a boost of carbohydrates to improve sports or exercise performance. Aspects of the invention relate to compositions including glucosamine to alleviate or prevent muscle soreness. In certain embodiments, the glucosamine may be derived from a plurality of glucosamine sources. Further aspects relate to concentrated products for preparing beverage compositions. In certain embodiments, a concentrated form of a beverage composition may be provided in a packaging. Instructions for preparing the beverage composition having an effective amount of glucosamine may also be provided. Further embodiments may include a notification that indicates the benefit of reducing or preventing muscle soreness following physical exertion by consuming the beverage formulation.
