Endurance Collection

If you run, hike, swim, cycle, or heck even walk, you’re probably aware that your body demands a little more when you’re active. Both high- and low-impact activities can take a real toll on your body, and one of the best things you can do to sustain performance is take in the right combination of the right macronutrients (protein, carbs, etc) and micronutrients (vitamins and minerals).

The Endurance Collection’s smoothies are designed to relieve the body from oxidative stress and provide the nutrients needed to rebuild muscles after prolonged exercise. Full of calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium, and zinc, this collection will help fight off fatigue so you can focus on the next challenge ahead.

We recommend starting each day with one of our anti-inflammatory smoothie (Kitsilano Sunrise or Wise Ninja) - and then swig back a protein smoothie right after training (Diesel Monster or Thunderbird). On off days that’s one smoothie a day, and on training days that two a day to help keep you feeling your best.

Dates: Most people would be surprised to know that dates have a very impressive nutritional profile. Aside from being high in fibre and antioxidants, dates contain certain amounts of choline, which is an active component of Vitamin B that is known to improve memory and learning. Found in our Wise Ninja smoothie, dates also contain high levels of potassium and magnesium which help to keep bones strong and prevent cramping during prolonged exercise.

Astragalus: The Astragalus root has been used for thousands of years to help boost the immune system and increase energy levels. Considered to be one of the 50 elite tonic herbs used in Traditional Chinese Medicine, this powerful plant is known to reduce inflammation, stress, and even signs of ageing through its powerful antioxidant properties. We’ve included astragalus in our Kitsilano Sunrise smoothie to help give you that boost of energy in the morning.
