Rich & dark Cocoa is at the heart of Nova's indulgent taste & silky texture. Not only does this wonderful sustainable ingredient transform this shake into a rewarding treat, but thanks to the naturally occurring polyphenols & flavanols within the cocoa beans, it offers multifold health benefits including reduced inflammation, improved blood flow, reduced cholesterol levels & improved heart and brain health. (58) Tryptophan within each cocoa bean also helps to make serotonin which contributes to feelings of happiness & well-being.
Maca Root (Lepidium meyenii) hails from the high Andes mountains of Peru and has been used as a caffeine-free, plant-based performance enhancer since the days of the Inca warriors. A recognised adaptogen, this 100% natural vitamin & mineral rich plant has scientifically proven anti-inflammatory properties to assist the body in it's response to stress and potentially may boost sporting endurance if taken daily. You can loose up to a litre of sweat per hour & upto 900mg sodium per litre of sweat. We always recommend taking on added electrolytes as you exercise and continuing to replace these as part of your recovery to restore balance.
