Eric, "Soda Pop" usually means CocaCola or some other phosphate laden

drink. Phosphates block calcium absorbtion. Caffiene also interferes with

calcium uptake. Since active athletes need at least 2000mg of calcium per

day (not subtracting that which their Coka-Cola blocks) it would be a good

idea to revisit the choice of drink. 100% fruit juice will be more healthy

and have lots of sugars, too. maybe even a vitamin.   

A balanced commercial product intended for recovery needs to have some

scientific basis for its existance. Tooting my own horn, I suggest you

look at the Shaklee website for sports products. Ask about the science

first. Shaklee has over 70+ published peer reviewed scientific studies

about human nutritional needs and their products intended to help those

needs. Check the web site. www.shaklee.net/thefullers Check out Physique

for recovery.

Anectodal stories and advertising do not make for good choices.
