Background
The GO Energy + Immune Ginger gel is one of the most exciting and innovative sports nutrition products available. It was developed in response to athlete requests for a safe, effective supplement that could be taken every day to help maintain immune function. It is well known that intense exercise increases the body’s exposure to harmful bacteria and viruses, while simultaneously suppressing immune system functioning. These effects lead to a very high incidence of respiratory infections in athletes, disrupting training and ultimately compromising performance.
Unique features of the GO Energy + Immune – Ginger gel
A unique feature of all GO Energy + Immune gels is their ‘dual action’, which helps maintain immune functioning. For GO Energy + Immune Ginger a standardised ginger extract and a unique scientific blend of vitamins and minerals helps maintain immune function. These include
vitamin A,
vitamin D,
vitamin C,
zinc and
selenium; which all contribute to the normal functioning of the immune system. The GO Energy + Immune gel isn’t just a delicious ginger flavoured gel; it also contains a special extract of fresh ginger. This is used to deliver standardised levels of 6-gingerol and shogaols, widely recognised as some of the most important compounds found in ginger. In combination these features make GO Energy + Immune Ginger very important for addressing immune issues in athletes. The formulation and benefits of the GO Energy + Immune gel are so unique and innovative, Science in Sport have applied for a patent to protect the technology from being duplicated.
Who is it for?
The GO Energy + Immune gel was developed specifically at the request of athletes who wanted to minimize problems associated with impaired immune function. Despite this, GO Energy + Immune Ginger gels are perfect for anyone who is physically active and wants to support immune system functioning.
