Heed 2.0 Drink Mix 32 Servings
Description
Hammer's products have long been a great option for many endurance athletes. Tested and proven in the lab and embraced in the real world, Hammer's HEED 2.0 represents what many feel is a healthier and more forward thinking product, moving away from corn-based maltodextrin to a tapioca version, which carries many benefits for the environment and your performance. Highly effective and GI friendly, HEED provides exactly what your body needs to build a basis of your energy and electrolyte intake during extended duration endurance exercise. It can be used with other energy products, such as Hammer's Perpetuem and Endurolytes. This is the 32 serving size, with 30 grams (1 scoops) making up one 110 gram calorie serving.
In the beginning stages in formulating HEED, the main complaint that Hammer heard from athletes was that all the other sports drinks currently available were too sweet, so that was one major thing the scientists worked on. The focus was to always maltodextrin (complex carbs) in their fuels, and that starch-like carbohydrate is not very sweet to begin with. Hammer wanted to give the product a bit of sweetness, but adding sugar or artificial sweeteners weren't an option. Instead, we opted to use a small amount of xylitol and stevia. Both of these sweeteners are undeniably better options than sugar or artificial ingredients, they’re actually good for teeth and gums, and because they are both several times sweeter than sugar, only a small amount was needed. The result is a sports drink that's not short on calories (110 per scoop), but comes without that unpleasant overly sweet and syrupy taste. Return to Top
