Do Good Challenge VerticalMy friend Rob Greenfield is one of the biggest inspirations I know.  In an effort to kickstart myself into doing more Good, I asked if he would put together a 31 day Challenge for me to follow….and I hope you’ve joined in.

Every day this January we’re posting one of Rob’s challenges and want to hear about how performing these has changed your life.  Here’s today’s challenge:

Sugar Alternatives for Energy and Hydration

Question: I am using the homebrew sugar formulations (sometimes added to green tea).  I am also trying to wean myself off 1/2 dose adrenalean “lip tonic delivery system” (biorhythm brand- caffeine, hoodia g, synephrine, yohimbe) capsule for energy.

My question is other than juice, can you suggest modifications in lieu of table sugar for energy and hydration.

Answer:

Both raw/organic honey or agave can work great in the homebrew (substitute in the same quantities for the sugar, or to taste), but you do have to shake well in order to make sure they don’t settle out.  Have you tried either of these?  Also, make sure to use at least the minimum amount of salt recommended in the homebrew as the temps rise, you need the sodium replacement if you’re sweating.
