FAQs

As an athlete you can value the benefit of a product that works very well. Do you want to share it with the competition so they can beat you? That is what has happened with Performance Drink up until now. The secret is out, and its now becoming a disadvantage if you’re not using it!

Absolutely not! That is like asking to use track shoes on a tennis court, or a road bike on a mountain bike course. It simple doesn’t work. Why would anyone think a 6’8 330-pound NFL lineman, a 100-pound female gymnast and a 5’5 140-pound race car driver could use the same drink? Their events are as different as are their physical needs. Performance Drink can cater to those differences with their custom pro formulas.

Like most things that can have many variations, if you can get a custom version just for you, you can increase the benefit to your body. Performance Drink is no different. The base training formula works great, but if you really want to see the difference, a custom formula will take advantage of your metabolism to make sure that you are at your best for your event.

Many sport drinks on the market are simply replenishment drinks. They are drinks that attempt to give you back some of the sugar and electrolytes that you have sweated out. But they act only in the short term, and do nothing for you in the long term. That’s where PerformanceDrink is different. You take PerformanceDrink before your event to last you through it and give you the nice and even glucose levels you need for the duration and recovery.

These terms relate to the concentration of active drink ingredients. Isotonic drinks have a heavier concentration of nutritional ingredients 6% solution whereas Hypotonic drinks have much less with a 2% active solution. There are a possible 5 million different combinations of ingredients that can be used to create these types of solutions. Carbohydrates or polysaccharides, are now recognized as the most information dense structures in the human body.

A four-unit carbohydrate has over 5 million variations while a four-unit protein has just 160 thousand variations and a four-unit DNA sequence only 256 variations. This means a four-unit carbohydrate has 33 times the information capacity of a protein and over 20,000 times the information capacity of DNA. This tremendous complexity is both the barrier to understanding carbohydrates, and the key to their potential. PerformanceDrink has found a way to combine the benefits of an isotonic (6% active solution) and the benefits of a hypotonic (2%active solution) to make an Isohypotonic or and hypoisotonic formula without the negative effects of either isotonic or hypotonic. Now it can be thick and thin at the same time! Middle East Testing Services reported 20.8 mg/L dissolved oxygen in one Airo Water laboratory sample. The report records refrigerated transport and does not document a high-temperature stability test. Warm water normally holds less dissolved oxygen than cold water, but there is no universal 68°F cutoff.

Performance Drink is a proprietary blend of carbohydrates which may consist of organic grains, fruits, vegetables, sea salt and pure fruit flavors depending on events and personal requirements.

Middle East Testing Services, METS, reported 20.8 mg/L dissolved oxygen in one Airo Water laboratory sample. The report records refrigerated transport and does not document a high-temperature stability test. Warm water normally holds less dissolved oxygen than cold water.

PerformanceDrink reports a stabilized-oxygen formulation, but the linked METS report supports only a 20.8 mg/L measurement in one refrigerated sample and does not document heat stability.

Your blood glucose levels indicate how much glucose is readily available for your muscles to burn in your blood stream. If these levels get too low, an athlete can experience any number of negative side effects, such as loss of focus, blurry vision and poor coordination. This is sometimes called “the Wall” by endurance athletes. Making sure this level is at its optimum throughout the athletes event is the primary focus of PerformanceDrink.

Performance Drink can help just as much with short sprinting activities as with endurance events. Often times, even though your race may only last a minute, you may still be doing heats to get to that point, as well as any warm up activity. Also, high loads for such a short duration can break muscles down quickly and Performance Drink can help with the recovery.

Performance Drink can be used continuously throughout a long duration event in conjunction with normal food and water intake. The 24 hours of Daytona is a good example, and the 2007 winners used Performance Drink the whole race.

A 2018 MR DNA laboratory experiment tested the NutriBrix Oxygen additive, confirmed as the same formula used in current PerformanceDrink Oxygen Water. Two microbial sample types were incubated with and without the additive for 24 hours at approximately 21°C. Each group had three samples.

Average bacterial DNA in the FGM samples increased from 53.879 to 117.333 units, a 117.77% increase. The HFGM samples increased from 1023.797 to 1162.815 units, a 13.58% increase. The laboratory also identified significant changes in the relative abundance of several bacterial genera.

This was a laboratory sample experiment, not a human study. It did not measure the human gut, nutrient absorption, or health outcomes. The report states that the total bacterial-count difference did not appear significant, although its final conclusion describes the increases as significant. No p-values or confidence intervals were reported for the total bacterial-count comparison.

No product can be guaranteed to pass every current or future sports drug test. A 2007 University at Buffalo report tested seven subjects on a stated urine drug panel before and after water or Performance Drink consumption. Four subjects also received an expanded anabolic-agent panel. All reported results were negative. The authors limited the findings to the supplied product and testing available at that time. This is not WADA or NCAA certification. Athletes remain responsible for compliance.

Compared to many drinks on the market, PerformanceDrink is indeed more expensive. But, if you really look at all of the costs of your sport, and all of the time you have spent to get to that event, wouldn’t you want to make sure that you had every last bit of your ability at just the right moment? In many sports, the difference between 1st and 2nd place can be thousandths of a second! Would you rather save the money and come in 2nd?
