Each ingredient within Vita has been carefully selected to deliver rapid effective recovery. Raspberry, Acai, Cherry & Blackcurrant - Vita's mix of nature’s finest Super-berries are carefully blended to help reduce inflammation & restore balance after any workout. Picked at their ripest & freeze dried to lock in all their super nutrients, this Super-berry blend is sure to make your taste buds & aching legs super happy. Raspberry Zingy & vibrant. A recent study has discovered that phytochemicals in raspberries, which give them their ruby colour, guards against exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) after a strenuous session and speeds up recovery. It’s these powerful antioxidants that support the body in decreasing the oxidative damage from free radicals and fight inflammation.

ACAI Tart & invigorating. Native to The Bazilian Amazon, Acai berries contain high amounts of antioxidants (10x that of blueberries), which may reduce oxidative stress after exercise, speeding up recovery from muscle damage. If consumed daily, these tart powerhouses may also help reduce joint pain associated with repetitive strenuous activity. CHERRY The beneficial effects of sour cherry juice on muscle strength & soreness are well documented within preliminary studies. Incorporating cherry in to your recovery regime may be a step in the right direction to improved performance & a way to help reduce the dreaded DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness).

BLACKCURRANT Brimming with vitamins, this British super-berry can lower lactate accumulation during running & cycling, allowing you to go on for longer without feeling the burn. They improve blood flow and nutrient delivery, which is key for repairing muscles and removing lactate. Plus, their antioxidants protect against oxidative stress and reduce tissue damage. 

Each Vita serving is enriched with 400mg of Panax Ginseng, a herbal adaptogen that has been used for centuries in Chinese medicine for antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits. Adaptogens are a unique class of healing plants believed to help balance, restore and protect the body after periods of exertion or stress.

A full review of human studies suggest the use of Panax Ginseng can improve fatigue, energy, and motivation. Preliminary studies suggest that Ginseng might help you recover better from exercise and this is especially true if your exercise program shifts in intensity, or provides a unique stress that your muscles and body are not used to. This super root may also help regulate blood sugar levels, enhance brain function & improve your mood. A great boost for recovery & your overall health & well-being!
