Hi,
Did you know that heat can play a huge role in an athlete’s gut health?
It’s more than finding the right fuel or adapting to higher carbs. Studies have shown that 90% of athletes have experienced heat-induced GI distress.
When we train hard, especially in warm temperatures, blood flow is redirected from the gut to help regulate our body temperature.
The result is cramps, nausea or worse. If you’ve ever had to deal with these, you know how much it can mess up training or even race day.
I’ve started taking something that has not only eliminated this problem for me, but it’s also ramped up my recovery time and overall performance. It’s called CurraNZ.
This is an extract supplement made from a powerful little berry from New Zealand called Blackcurrant, and I love it.
Blackcurrant is a superfood containing one of the highest densities of polyphenols and anthocyanins. These antioxidants dramatically increase blood flow and reduce inflammation.
New research proves that this supplement is incredibly effective in protecting the gut during exercise in the heat.
I’ve had my fair share of those experiences, and the usual fixes are either hard to stick to or don’t really work. If you’ve ever had to do heat acclimation training, you know what I’m talking about.
But this study is showing blackcurrant extract might be a simple, effective solution. It’s also been proven to reduce muscle damage, soreness and fatigue.
Elite trail runners like Ruth Croft and Hayden Hawks are already using it, and they’re seeing real improvements. Hayden just reclaimed first in the 2024 UTMB World Series Final with an absolutely phenomenal performance, and he attributes his victory to CurraNZ.
If you’re having any kind of GI distress, I seriously recommend you try this supplement. It’s worked wonders for me.
Even if you’re just looking to boost your performance or an improvement to your health, this is one supplement I believe everyone needs to use.
