Bob Seebohar – Sport Dietitian

I was introduced to The Right Stuff during my quest to conquer the Leadville Leadman series in 2009. I used it during the 50 mile mountain bike ride and was pleasantly surprised of not only the light taste but the effectiveness of delivery. Being a liquid, it is simple to drop into a bottle or camelbak. This is crucial for me because I have a high sweat rate and need around 1000-1200 milligrams of sodium per hour. The Right Stuff has been a staple in my Leadville 100 trail run training for 2010. I put it in my bottles of water but also carry the vials with me in my waist pack for water stops. The liquid delivery system is quick, easy and most importantly, it allows me to take the guesswork out of my sodium needs. I align The Right Stuff use with my hourly fluid intake and don’t have to worry about popping or carrying pills.

Thanks Right Stuff. This is just what this ultrarunner, triathlete and sport dietitian needs to strive for optimal performance!

	Sugar-Free: Based on the NASA-research, The Right Stuff does not contain any sugar, which slows gastric emptying that slows the rate of absorption into the body. The Right Stuff only uses a small amount of sweetener, to help cut the saltiness. Some flavor versions (Lemonade and Cherry Lime) are naturally-sweetened with stevia and monk fruit. The other flavors are sweetened with a small amount of sucralose (the sweetener in Splenda®).
	GMO-Free: The Right Stuff contains no ingredients from genetically-modified organisms
	Vegan: The Right Stuff is vegan. The formula contains no dairy, meat or shellfish nor any nut ingredients.
	Gluten-Free: A gluten intolerance is the body’s inability to digest or break down the gluten protein found in wheat and certain other grains. Gluten intolerance (also known as a gluten sensitivity) can range from a mild sensitivity to gluten to full-blown celiac disease. The Right Stuff formula does not contain any ingredients (grains, starches or flours) that contain gluten nor does it source any ingredients that come gluten-containing grains or starches.
	NSF Certified For Sport: The Right Stuff® is tested and certified as a participant in the NSF Certified for Sport® program. It was created to meet the growing demands of athletes, coaches, sports dietitians and healthcare professionals to certify that sports nutrition products are safe and free from banned substances. Leading sports organizations (e.g., NFL, MLB, NHL, PGA and LPGA) are supporters of this program. From approval of raw materials to formulation and label claim review through rigorous testing of final products, NSF ensures the products you consume are safe and contain exactly what’s listed on the label. The NSF Certified for Sport® Mark confirms that every batch of The Right Stuff® undergoes stringent laboratory testing for content, purity and contains no heavy metals, banned substances or other adulterants.
