A contrary view to the one that only water should be taken during long flights

Article by Dr Ken Wishaw from Gliding International.

“On longer flights (say over two hours) we should be aiming to replace what we are losing. Sports drinks are appropriate for this. As we are a ‘light physical activity in a hot environment’, some dilution from the recommended concentration can be used if this makes it more palatable. Which brand is not as critical as what tastes good to you.”
