WHAT IS THE SOURCE OF THE ELECTROLYTES, B VITAMINS, AND CARBOHYDRATES IN GOODSPORT®?
We extract the electrolytes, B vitamins, and carbohydrates from milk.
WHY DO YOU HARNESS THE ELECTROLYTES, B VITAMINS, AND CARBS FROM MILK?
It’s widely known in sports science that milk hydrates better than traditional sports drinks and water because it contains a unique profile of electrolytes and carbohydrates you can’t find anywhere else.
HOW DO YOU EXTRACT MILK’S ELECTROLYTES, B VITAMINS AND CARBOHYDRATES?
A process called ultrafiltration is used to filter out and remove milk’s protein which allows us to capture the clear part of the milk containing its unique profile of electrolytes, B vitamins, and carbohydrates.
WHAT IS UPCYCLING?
Upcycling means using ingredients that otherwise would go to waste to create new, higher-value products.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE UPCYCLED CERTIFIED™?
Being Upcycled Certified™ means that a product uses an ingredient that otherwise would go to waste, is procured and produced using verifiable supply chains, and has a positive impact on the environment.
WHY IS GOODSPORT® GOOD FOR THE PLANET?
Instead of purchasing tons of milk and ultra filtering it to remove its protein and capture its electrolytes, B vitamins, and carbohydrates, we work with dairy companies who are already ultra filtering milk to make products like protein powders and leave behind the clear liquid containing the electrolytes, B vitamins, and carbohydrates we need to make GoodSport®. By rescuing and upcycling this nutrient-rich part of the milk, called ultra-filtered deproteinized milk (or milk permeate), we reduce the environmental impact of its disposal and improve the value of the food system.
IS GOODSPORT® UPCYCLED CERTIFIED™?
Yes.
ARE ALL OF GOODSPORT'S INGREDIENTS MADE FROM NATURAL SOURCES?
Yes. All ingredients are from natural sources.
IS GOODSPORT® LACTOSE-FREE?
Yes. During production of GoodSport®, the natural lactose found in milk is broken apart into two simple sugars, glucose and galactose, which are easy to digest.
DOES GOODSPORT® USE COLORS FROM ARTIFICIAL SOURCES?
No, GoodSport® uses only colors from natural sources like blueberries and carrots.
WHAT ARE MONK FRUIT EXTRACT AND ERYTHRITOL AND WHY ARE THEY IN GOODSPORT®?
Monk fruit extract and erythritol are natural, zero-calorie sweeteners. Monk fruit extract is made from monk fruit, a sweet melon grown in Asia and erythritol is made from corn. The combination of the two provide just the right level of sweetness in GoodSport®.
