U.S. sports nutrition sales are expected to reach $3.5 billion by 2013.
Gillco is now distributing Danisco’s BetaPower Natural Betaine, a natural nutrient for athletic strength and performance. BetaPower is an ideal ingredient for various sports nutrition formulations including supplements and beverages.
A recent study conducted by the University of Connecticut measured the increase in performance levels of athletes who consumed 2.5 grams of betaine per day over a two week period. The results indicated:
- More powerful jumping (+7%)
- More powerful bench throw (+30%)
- More forceful squat (+8%)
- More forceful bench press (+35%)
And improved results were evident in ALL of the athletes tested. Additionally, betaine protects against dehydration, reduces cardiovascular disease and can improve liver and kidney function.
Betaine available on the market can be of natural or synthetic origin and it is not always clear from the product labels. Make sure your product contains the guaranteed high quality and purity of Danisco’s BetaPower.
