The Science Behind Zuul Hydration

Our formula is based on 10 years of research into heat stress.

A supplement designed to

Science of Heat Stress

Tolerating a hot environment

Drink twice daily to help you better tolerate a hot environment. 5-7 days of supplementation can help when you're not yet adapted to heat. This might be early in the warm season, during heat waves, or training camp.

Preparing for a hot environment

Supplementing twice daily for 5-7 days prior to heat exposure can help you prepare for the heat. This is ideal for those traveling for competition, work, or vacation.

Daily supplementation

Use as a daily hydration supplement. It's designed to promote water absorption from the gut and improve hydration status.

What’s Inside Zuul?

Designed to deliver novel nutrients at functional doses. Most hydration supplements are simply sugar and sodium and also overpriced!

Glutamine

Protein

Carbohydrate

Electrolytes

Papain

Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the body. It is a major nutrient for the gut and immune cells. During situations of physical stress, like heat exposure, glutamine becomes essential

Protein supports muscle recovery and growth. Protein ingestion has also been shown to protect the gut during heat stress

Carbohydrate is key to water absorption in the gut, even more than sodium. Carbohydrate is also important for maintenance of energy during heat stress

Electrolytes are key nutrients that support function and recovery from heat stress

Papain enzyme from papaya is a naturally occurring enzyme that supports digestion and GI function
