  • Sports Drinks: the Myths Busted August 5, 2012
    Sports drinks: the myths busted August 5, 2012 The Coca-Cola and McDonald's sponsorships for the London Olympics are creating outcry from health advocates, but there's one sponsorship they may be overlooking: Powerade. Powerade, the official drink for athletes at the 2012 Olympic Games (as well as the EUFA 2012), is the sister drink of the other official Olympic drink: Coca-Cola. Is it that surprising? The most common beliefs about sports drinks are that they rehydrate athletes, that all athletes (Olympic or not) can benefit from sports drinks, and that all sports drinks are created equal. Right? Wrong. Reaching for a neon-green Gatorade after your oh-so-grueling spin class may seem like a good idea, but the truth might surprise you. Sports drinks contain electrolytes (mostly potassium and sodium) and sugars to replenish what the body has lost through sweating that water alone can’t replace. The purpose of these beverages is to bring the levels of minerals in your blood closer to their normal levels, so you can continue your workout as if you just started. Sounds great, right? But don’t go reaching for the nearest bottle just yet. Not all sports drinks are created equal, and not every sports drink works the same for every athlete. Most nutritionists agree that sports drinks only become beneficial once your workout extends past 60 minutes. For Olympians, sports drinks might actually do the trick; one study from the University of Bath found that sipping on a carbohydrate-based drink helped athletes’ performances. But that doesn’t mean that drinking water ceases to be essential.

One would imagine it was quite difficult initially for these people to communicate and do business with each other, but even today obstacles in international business still exist. Although our world has certainly become much smaller in the last several centuries, cultural and geographical contexts still play a large part in shaping different societies and their methods of interaction with others. The term “globalization” is one heard of quite often in today’s world, particularly in economic terms, referring to the expansion of free market capitalism. There are many other aspects that fit into the globalization process, ranging from political to social to technological, that are a part of this increasing interconnectivity of people around the world.

The year 1886 was the birth year of the world renowned, mega-cap company Coca-Cola Co. it all began when a pharmacist named John Pemberton was experimenting with carbonated beverages and created a medicinal drink to sell to drug storesi. The first ever Coca Cola was made with cocaine and wine, but later the cocaine was substituted out with the Kola nut to bypass the alcohol restriction in 1885. Due to the use of the Kola Nut in the syrup mixture, Frank M Robinson, the first Marketer of Coca Cola coined the name Coca Colaii, which quickly started to gain popularity. In fact the word Coca-Cola is the second most used and understood word after the word “Okay” worldwideiii.

    Trends & Things The latest trends in marketing, advertising & creativity Coconut Water A growing new market in the UK ©2012 Creative Orchestra Creative Orchestra Advertising & Brand Marketing www.creativeorchestra.com Researched and written by Caryn Coley & Chris Arnold with additional material from Vita Coco. The expanding coconut water market | 3 Trends & Things The latest trends in marketing, advertising & creativity from creativeorchestra.com Coconut water We’re all aware of the sentiment behind ‘you are what you eat’ but increasingly consumers are concerned with the concept of ‘you are what you drink’. With a growing awareness of health issues most of us are thinking twice about what we put into our bodies, be it food or drink, and that’s now big business. Coconut water is one of the fastest growing beverage categories in the US and UK (estimated to reach $1bn soon) due to its natural hydrating qualities, great taste and nutritional benefits, not to mention the large number of celebrities drinking it. It is a great source of nutrients, contains calcium and magnesium, and the same amount of heart healthy potassium as a banana or a glass of orange juice. And that’s just a few of its ‘superdrink’ claims. With a mass appeal to ethical and health conscious consumers and those leading an activity lifestyle, and some are predicting it could overtake the sales of orange juice (as has already happened in Brazil) it’s no wonder big brands like Pepsi & Coke are getting in on the act. There are now 250 companies that have a beverage with some form of coconut water in it.
