It is the position of the American College of Sports Medicine that adequate fluid replacement helps
maintain hydration and, therefore, promotes the health, safety, and optimal physical performance of
individuals participating in regular physical activity. This position statement is based on a
comprehensive review and interpretation of scientific literature concerning the influence of fluid
replacement on exercise performance and the risk of thermal injury associated with dehydration and
hyperthermia.
Based on available evidence, the American College of Sports Medicine makes the following general
recommendations on the amount and composition of fluid that should be ingested in preparation for,
during, and after exercise or athletic competition:
1) It is recommended that individuals consume a nutritionally balanced diet and drink adequate fluids
during the 24-hr period before an event, especially during the period that includes the meal prior to
exercise, to promote proper hydration before exercise or competition.
2) It is recommended that individuals drink about 500 ml (about 17 ounces) of fluid about 2 hours
before exercise to promote adequate hydration and allow time for excretion of excess ingested
water.
3) During exercise, athletes should start drinking early and at regular intervals in an attempt to
consume fluids at a rate sufficient to replace all the water lost through sweating (i.e., body weight loss), or consume the maximal amount that can be tolerated. 4) It is recommended that ingested fluids be cooler than ambient temperature (between 15 degrees and 22 degrees C or 59 degrees and 72 degrees F) and flavored to enhance palatability and promote fluid replacement. Fluids should be readily available and served in containers that allow adequate volumes to be ingested with ease and with minimal interruption of exercise. 5) Addition of proper amounts of carbohydrates and/or electrolytes to a fluid replacement solution is recommended for exercise events of duration greater than 1 hour since it does not significantly impair water delivery to the body and may enhance performance. During exercise lasting less than 1 hour, there is little evidence of physiological or physical performance differences between consuming a carbohydrate-electrolyte drink and plain water. 6) During intense exercise lasting longer than 1 hr, it is recommended that carbohydrates be ingested at a rate of 30-60 g.h(-1) to maintain oxidation of carbohydrates and delay fatigue. This rate of carbohydrate intake can be achieved without compromising fluid delivery by drinking 600-1200 ml.hr(-1) of solutions containing 4%-8% carbohydrates (g.100 ml(-1)). The carbohydrates can be sugars (glucose or sucrose) or starch (e.g., maltodextrin). 7) Inclusion of sodium (0.5-0.7 g.1(-1) of water) in the rehydration solution ingested during exercise lasting longer than 1 hr is recommended since it may be advantageous in enhancing palatability, promoting fluid retention, and possibly preventing hyponatremia in certain individuals who drink excessive quantities of fluid. There is little physiological basis for the presence of sodium in an oral rehydration solution for enhancing intestinal water absorption as long as sodium is sufficiently available from the previous meal.

Active oxygen species or free radicals are considered to cause extensive oxidative damage
to biological macromolecules.. The ideal scavenger for active oxygen should be 'active hydrogen'.
'Active hydrogen' can be produced in reduced water near the cathode during electrolysis of water.
Reduced water exhibits high pH, low dissolved oxygen (DO), extremely high dissolved molecular
hydrogen (DH), and extremely negative redox potential (RP) values. Strongly electrolyzed-reduced
water, as well as ascorbic acid, (+)-catechin and tannic acid, completely scavenged O.-2 produced
by the hypoxanthine-xanthine oxidase (HX-XOD) system in sodium phosphate buffer (pH 7.0). The
superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activity of reduced water is stable at 4 degrees C for over a month
and was not lost even after neutralization, repeated freezing and melting, deflation with sonication,
vigorous mixing, boiling, repeated filtration, or closed autoclaving, but was lost by opened
autoclaving or by closed autoclaving in the presence of tungsten trioxide which efficiently adsorbs
active atomic hydrogen. Water bubbled with hydrogen gas exhibited low DO, extremely high DH and
extremely low RP values, as does reduced water, but it has no SOD-like activity. These results
suggest that the SOD-like activity of reduced water is not due to the dissolved molecular hydrogen
but due to the dissolved atomic hydrogen (active hydrogen). Although SOD accumulated H2O2
when added to the HX-XOD system, reduced water decreased the amount of H2O2 produced by
XOD. Reduced water, as well as catalase and ascorbic acid, could directly scavenge H2O2.
Reduced water suppresses single-strand breakage of DNA b active oxygen species produced
by the Cu(II)-catalyzed oxidation of ascorbic acid in a dose-dependent manner, suggesting
that reduced water can scavenge not only O2.- and H2O2, but also 1O2 and .OH.

We reported that reduced water produced by electrolysis enhanced the antioxidant effects of
proton donors such as ascorbic acid (AsA) in a previous paper.
We also demonstrated that reduced water produced by electrolysis of 2 mM NaCl solutions did not
show antioxidant effects by itself. We reasoned that the enhancement of antioxidant effects may be
due to the increase of the ionic product of water as solvent. The ionic product of water (pKw) was
estimated by measurements of pH and by a neutralization titration method. As an indicator of
oxidative damage, Reactive Oxygen Species- (ROS) mediated DNA strand breaks were measured
by the conversion of supercoiled phiX-174 RF I double-strand DNA to open and linear forms.
Reduced water had a tendency to suppress single-strand breakage of DNA induced by reactive
oxygen species produced by H2O2/Cu (II) and HQ/Cu (II) systems. The enhancement of superoxide
anion radical dismutation activity can be explained by changes in the ionic product of water in the
reduced water.

Food borne pathogens in cell suspensions or attached to surfaces can be reduced by electrolyzed
oxidizing (EO) water; however, the use of EO water against pathogens associated with poultry has
not been explored.
In this study, acidic EO water [EO-A; pH 2.6, chlorine (CL) 20 to 50 ppm, and oxidation-reduction
potential (ORP) of 1,150 mV], basic EO water (EO-B; pH 11.6, ORP of -795 mV), CL, ozonated
water (OZ), acetic acid (AA), or trisodium phosphate (TSP) was applied to broiler carcasses
inoculated with Salmonella Typhimurium (ST) and submerged (4 C, 45 min), spray-washed (85 psi,
25 C, 15 s), or subjected to multiple interventions (EO-B spray, immersed in EO-A; AA or TSP spray,
immersed in CL). Remaining bacterial populations were determined and compared at Day 0 and 7 of
aerobic, refrigerated storage. At Day 0, submersion in TSP and AA reduced ST 1.41 log10, whereas
EO-A water reduced ST approximately 0.86 log10. After 7 d of storage, EO-A water, OZ, TSP, and
AA reduced ST, with detection only after selective enrichment. Spray-washing treatments with any of
the compounds did not reduce ST at Day 0. After 7 d of storage, TSP, AA, and EO-A water reduced
ST 2.17, 2.31, and 1.06 log10, respectively. ST was reduced 2.11 log10 immediately following the
multiple interventions, 3.81 log10 after 7 d of storage. Although effective against ST, TSP and AA
are costly and adversely affect the environment.
This study demonstrates that EO water can reduce ST on poultry surfaces following extended
refrigerated storage.

Treatment of Escherichia coli (O157:H7) inoculated alfalfa seeds and sprouts with electrolyzed
oxidizing water.Acid Water and Food Sanitation
Int J Food Microbiol.

Electrolyzed oxidizing water is a relatively new concept that has been utilized in agriculture, livestock
management, medical sterilization, and food sanitation.
Electrolyzed oxidizing (EO) water generated by passing sodium chloride solution through an EO water
generator was used to treat alfalfa seeds and sprouts inoculated with a five-strain cocktail of nalidixic acid
resistant Escherichia coli O157:H7. EO water had a pH of 2.6, an oxidation-reduction potential of 1150
mV and about 50 ppm free chlorine. The percentage reduction in bacterial load was determined for
reaction times of 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, and 64 min. Mechanical agitation was done while treating the seeds at
different time intervals to increase the effectiveness of the treatment. Since E. coli O157:H7 was released
due to soaking during treatment, the initial counts on seeds and sprouts were determined by soaking the
contaminated seeds/sprouts in 0.1% peptone water for a period equivalent to treatment time. The
samples were then pummeled in 0.1% peptone water and spread plated on tryptic soy agar with 5
microg/ml of nalidixic acid (TSAN). Results showed that there were reductions between 38.2% and 97.1%
(0.22-1.56 log(10) CFU/g) in the bacterial load of treated seeds. The reductions for sprouts were between
91.1% and 99.8% (1.05-2.72 log(10) CFU/g).
An increase in treatment time increased the percentage reduction of E. coli O157:H7. However,
germination of the treated seeds reduced from 92% to 49% as amperage to make EO water and soaking
time increased. EO water did not cause any visible damage to the sprouts.

Inactivation of Escherichia coli (O157:H7) and Listeria monocytogenes on plastic kitchen cutting
boards by electrolyzed oxidizing water.
Use of Acid Water to clean Plastic Cutting Boards

One milliliter of culture containing a five-strain mixture of Escherichia coli O157:H7 (approximately 10(10)
CFU) was inoculated on a 100-cm2 area marked on unscarred cutting boards.
Following inoculation, the boards were air-dried under a laminar flow hood for 1 h, immersed in 2 liters of
electrolyzed oxidizing water or sterile deionized water at 23 degrees C or 35 degrees C for 10 or 20 min;
45 degrees C for 5 or 10 min; or 55 degrees C for 5 min. After each temperature-time combination, the
surviving population of the pathogen on cutting boards and in soaking water was determined. Soaking of
inoculated cutting boards in electrolyzed oxidizing water reduced E. coli O157:H7 populations by > or =
5.0 log CFU/100 cm2 on cutting boards. However, immersion of cutting boards in deionized water
decreased the pathogen count only by 1.0 to 1.5 log CFU/100 cm2. Treatment of cutting boards
inoculated with Listeria monocytogenes in electrolyzed oxidizing water at selected temperature-time
combinations (23 degrees C for 20 min, 35 degrees C for 10 min, and 45 degrees C for 10 min)
substantially reduced the populations of L. monocytogenes in comparison to the counts recovered from
the boards immersed in deionized water. E. coli O157:H7 and L. monocytogenes were not detected in
electrolyzed oxidizing water after soaking treatment, whereas the pathogens survived in the deionized
water used for soaking the cutting boards.
This study revealed that immersion of kitchen cutting boards in electrolyzed oxidizing water could
be used as an effective method for inactivating food borne pathogens on smooth, plastic cutting
boards.

Electrolyzed water accelerated the healing of full-thickness cutaneous wounds in rats, but only anode
chamber water (acid pH or neutralized) was effective. Hypochlorous acid (HOCl), also produced by
electrolysis, was ineffective, suggesting that these types of electrolyzed water enhance wound healing by
a mechanism unrelated to the well-known antibacterial action of HOCl. One possibility is that reactive
oxygen species, shown to be electron spin resonance spectra present in anode chamber water, might
trigger early wound healing through fibroblast migration and proliferation.

Electrolyzed anode water (EAW) markedly extended the vase life of cut carnation flowers.
Therefore, a flower-senescence hormone involving ethylene decomposition by EAW with potassium
chloride as an electrolyte was investigated. Ethylene was added externally to EAW, and the reaction
between ethylen and the available chlorine in EAW was examined. EAW had a low pH value (2.5), a high
concentration of dissolved oxygen, and extremely high redox potential (19.2 mg/l and 1323 mV,
respectively) when available chlorine was at a concentration of about 620 microns. The addition of
ethylene to EAW led to ethylene decomposition, and an equimolar amount of ethylene chlorohydrine with
available chlorine was produced. The ethylene chlorohydrine production was greatly affected by the pH
value (pH 2.5, 5.0 and 10.0 were tested), and was faster in an acidic solution. Ethylene chlorohydrine was
not produced after ethylene had been added to EAW at pH 2.6 when available chlorine was absent, but
was produced after potassium hypochlorite had been added to such EAW. The effect of the pH value of
EAW on the vase life of cut carnations was compatible with the decomposition rate of ethylene in EAW of
the same pH value.
These results suggest that the effect of Electrolyzed Anode Water on the vase life of cut carnations was
due to the decomposition of ethylene to ethylene chlorohydrine by chlorine from chlorine compounds.
