Säätöjuoma

Säätöjuoma is a Finnish term that translates to "adjustment drink" or "regulation drink." It generally refers to a beverage intended to help regulate or improve one's physiological state. This can encompass a variety of purposes, such as rehydration, nutrient replenishment, or aiding in recovery.

The specific composition of a säätöjuoma can vary widely depending on its intended use. For athletes, it might be an electrolyte-rich sports drink designed to replace fluids and minerals lost through sweat during intense physical activity. For individuals recovering from illness, a säätöjuoma could be a nutrient-dense liquid meal replacement or a fortified beverage aimed at boosting energy levels and providing essential vitamins and minerals.

In a broader sense, the term can also be applied to beverages that claim to offer general wellness benefits, such as those containing probiotics for gut health or antioxidants for cellular protection. The concept emphasizes the drink's role in restoring or maintaining a balanced internal environment. While not a scientifically defined category, "säätöjuoma" highlights a consumer-oriented approach to beverages that support bodily functions and well-being.
