Popis: The rationale and methods of evaluating two carbohydrate-electrolyte solutions at a field training exercise in hot weather are presented in this overview. The carbohydrate-electrolyte solutions were formulated to produce a multipurpose replacement beverage which could satisfy diverse requirements of troops working in hot climates. Several uses of these beverages include replacement of electrolytes and fluid while in Mission Oriented Protective Posture IV, fluid replacement for mild heat casualties, and oral rehydration therapy for treatment of diarrheal losses.
