The present study analyzed sports beverages based on performance indicators of elite female badminton players in Iran.

The data was obtained based on a 24-hour recall questionnaire in three different days every week. Additionally, skin folds brachial triceps index was used for body fat percent assessment. To measure peak of oxygen uptake (VO2max), the shuttle run submaximal test was applied. Additionally, to control the fluid intake, 150 ml of liquid for each 70 kg body weight every 15 minutes was recommended for each group; to control the blood volume changes related to plasma, the blood glucose, hematocrit, hemoglobin, sodium, and potassium were measured during three time periods of zero, 30 min and 90 min after the start.
