Flavour & balance

A fruit-led profile, with sweetness and tartness in balance.

Apple flavour

Purpose: Adds the apple note in our fruit-led flavour profile.
Origin: A flavour powder, not necessarily powdered apple. Its natural-flavour status and carrier ingredients depend on the supplier specification.

Strawberry flavour

Purpose: Adds a strawberry note to the blend.
Origin: A flavour powder, not a whole-fruit serving. Natural-flavour classification and its carrier ingredients need the supplier's composition details.

Illustrative cane sugar crystals and cut sugarcane.

Organic cane sugar

Organic

Purpose: Provides familiar sweetness to round out the fruit and botanical notes.
Research highlights: Carbohydrates are studied as fuel for demanding training. Selected research reports greater lifting volume, movement velocity or endurance in specific settings. These studies concern related carbohydrate forms and feeding strategies; organic cane sugar itself was not tested.

The intervention was maltodextrin, so this is related carbohydrate evidence rather than a trial of organic cane sugar.

Indirect human exercise trial — related carbohydrate feeding

Graded Carbohydrate Ingestion up to 120 g·h−1 Attenuates the Reduction in Critical Power Following 3 h of Moderate-Intensity Exercise in a Dose-Dependent Manner

Scandinavian journal of medicine & science in sports · 2026-06-19

During three hours of cycling, a maltodextrin–fructose drink helped trained cyclists and triathletes preserve more critical power than water alone. This offers endurance-specific context for carbohydrate feeding and does not establish a benefit from organic cane sugar at this product’s serving amount.

Citric acid

Purpose: Adjusts acidity and gives the blend a bright, tart edge.
Origin: Citric acid occurs naturally in citrus and other foods. Food-grade citric acid is commonly made by fermentation; the name does not mean this powder was extracted from lemons.

Malic acid

Purpose: Adds fruit-style tartness alongside citric acid.
Research highlights: An early human pilot reports promising changes in a combined exertion/heart-rate measure during cycling. The study is small and examines specific physiological measures.
Origin: Malic acid occurs naturally in fruits such as apples. Commercial malic acid may be manufactured; the supplier route must be checked before describing this powder as fruit-derived.

Selected research 1 paper

Vitamin B12

Purpose: Adds B12 as cyanocobalamin.
Research highlights: Early research reports promising repeated-sprint findings with methylcobalamin and endurance findings with a B-vitamin combination. Our ingredient is cyanocobalamin, so the studied B12 form and co-ingredients matter.
Origin: Cyanocobalamin is a prepared vitamin form that the body converts to active forms. The supplied 10% premix uses mannitol as a carrier; no plant-extracted origin is claimed.

Illustrative white niacinamide powder in a shallow ceramic dish.

Vitamin B3 · Niacinamide

Purpose: Adds vitamin B3 as nicotinamide, also called niacinamide.
Research highlights: Early human research pairs niacinamide with B6 and reports increased muscle-regeneration markers following demanding exercise. This promising work focuses on post-exercise muscle biology.
Origin: A purified vitamin ingredient, specified as 98.5% nicotinamide. This is an added vitamin, not a botanical powder or an organic ingredient.

Illustrative pale yellow folic acid premix powder with a ceramic spoon.

Vitamin B9 · Folic acid

Purpose: Adds vitamin B9 in folic acid form.
Research highlights: Early research explores folic acid alongside resistance training, with promising changes in estimated muscle and fat mass over eight weeks. This is research on body composition during ongoing training.
Origin: Folic acid is the manufactured form of folate. The supplied 10% premix uses maltodextrin as its carrier; it is not naturally occurring food folate.

Selected research 1 paper

Texture & mixing

The ingredients that help bring the blend together.

Sunflower lecithin

Organic

Purpose: Helps the ingredients disperse and mix together.
Origin: An organic sunflower-derived phospholipid ingredient, separated from sunflower seeds. Its plant origin does not mean it is an unprocessed whole seed.

Xanthan gum

Purpose: Helps thicken and stabilise the drink.
Origin: Produced by microbial fermentation of carbohydrates, then purified and dried. Fermentation-derived is more precise than calling it a raw plant powder.
