WHAT ARE ENLYTEN SPORTSTRIPS Enlyten� Electrolyte SportStrips� is an innovative new product that replaces the electrolytes our bodies lose while exercising through buccal (cheek to gum) absorption. This mode of absorption is very different than all electrolyte delivery predecessors. Gastric absorption is bypassed and the electrolytes needed are directly absorbed into our bodies. Additionally this will help to avoid the over-hydration that often accompanies the excessive consumption of sports drinks. Our bodies lose approximately 2-3 liters a day of fluid when sedentary and this can increase to 10-15 liters in intensively training athletes, especially in warmer climates. With increasing fluid loss comes increasing electrolyte loss, and these too need to be replenished. In addition to water, the primary components of sweat are sodium, potassium and chloride, with smaller concentrations of magnesium and calcium. If an athlete does not adequately replace these losses during and after exercise, performance can be negatively affected. There exists an abundance of research regarding which electrolytes are responsible for cramping and impaired performance. However to date, there are few if any large randomized trials conclusively linking one particular electrolyte abnormality with cramps, weakness or impaired performance. In a study of NCAA football players by Stofan and others, crampers were compared to non-crampers, and electrolyte concentrations were one of their study outcomes. This study showed that NCAA football players who are prone to total body cramping lost more sodium in their sweat than non-cramping controls. Fluids consumed during exercise typically contain both carbohydrates and electrolytes. The amount of each varies by product. Typically these drinks have between 2 and 8 percent carbohydrate with a large range of electrolyte concentrations within them. A major limitation associated with re-hydration and electrolyte repletion is absorption. During exercise our bodies divert blood from our stomach and intestines to our exercising muscles. This leads to an increased gastric emptying time and altered intestinal absorption. Additionally, the addition of carbohydrate to these drinks can alter an athlete�s digestive ability. Slowed gastric emptying combined with altered absorption will limit the availability of the fluid and electrolytes we orally consume to be used by our bodies. Many athletes performing at high intensities will have a difficult time ingesting an adequate amount of fluid to maintain this homeostasis due to these changes. How exactly performance is adversely affected needs further research, but it is clear that current electrolyte delivery methods have major limitations. Enlyten SportStrips are absorbed very differently. They are designed to bypass the inherent inadequacies of gastric and intestinal absorption during exercise. SportStrips are absorbed directly into the blood stream through the buccal mucosa and thus is affected by neither gastric emptying nor colonic irritability. HOW TO USE ENLYTEN SPORTSTRIPS Insert SportStrips between the cheek and gum for optimal intake. The cellular lining of the cheek has abundant vascularization, rapid recovery from stress and is supported by smooth muscle, which is relatively immobile. The environment is moist but is not flooded by saliva under usual circumstances. Because the buccal mucosa is so highly vascularized, compounds absorbed via this route enter the systemic circulation directly, bypassing the gastrointestinal tract and metabolism by the liver. Using the buccal mucosa approach, it is thought that the substance enters the blood stream much faster than the gastrointestinal route. Also, the concentration of a given substance is absorbed at a significantly higher level when compared to the gastrointestinal route. Buccal administration of electrolytes via the mucosal membranes lining the cheeks has many advantages over current methods of electrolyte delivery. Scientific evidence is abundant that among the various transmucosal sites available, mucosa of the buccal cavity is found to be convenient and is an easy and accessible site for delivery of electrolytes and other therapeutic agents. The oral cavity is accessible during even the most active sport. With the SportStrips� small cassette, carrying and using these strips make it very easy and convenient. TESTING AND RESEARCH In the Michael W. Krzyewski Human Performance Laboratory (The K Lab), we are presently assessing new materials, including the Enlyten Electrolyte SportStrips from HealthSport Inc., using the buccal mucosa delivery site for electrolyte delivery. Athletes using a thin bi-layer film impregnated with electrolytes report decreased post exercise cramping. About HealthSport, Inc. HealthSport, Inc., a publicly traded company on the bulletin board market under the ticker symbol HSPO, is focused on the development, manufacturing and marketing of nutritional supplements in a one-of-a-kind edible film strip delivery system. Primary Objective The primary business operations focused on the development and marketing of edible thin film strips, such as the Electrolyte Strips, and its focus is on the activity and replenish market. Electrolytes have been proven to sustain proper cell function and growth in the body. Sports drinks can supply electrolytes lost while exercising, but these drinks do not contain the proper balance of electrolytes and often contain high amounts of sugar. Using its research and development and manufacturing capabilities, HealthSport will continue to formulate and develop exciting new thin film products and other products using various additional oral delivery systems.
