Cutting edge sports nutrition discovery in Boston

Athletes looking for a cutting edge discovery that ensures peak performance will want to read the report just published by fitness industry guru Ben Greenfield.

The breakthrough he reveals isn't a flashy high-tech piece of training equipment but something so humble and low tech it's on the bottom of the food chain. Remarkably this game changer is algae and Boston based ENERGYbits is the company being credited for bringing its stunning athletic benefits to light.

Algae has been around for billions of years and used extensively in Japan for the last 50. Yet, it has remained virtually unknown in the USA. Well, sort of. Algae gained national attention in the USA back in the early 1950s when NASA announced their intent to grow it in space and The Carnegie Institute declared it was the answer to America's nutrition crisis and should be put into production immediately.

As algae had never been produced for mass consumption, The Carnegie Institute set up and funded the world's first algae production plant in Boston; but, when the algae proved too complicated to grow, they shut the plant down after just one year. That's when the Japanese stepped in. It took them 10 years but by the early 1960s, algae production in Japan was a vibrant industry and well on its way to becoming a multi-billion dollar industry.

Algae may still be unheard of in the USA but in Asia, tens of millions take it every day and for good reason. Algae's nutritional profile is unrivalled and it is virtually impossible for athletes to beat the performance improvements they get from spirulina algae or the natural, rapid recovery from chlorella algae.

The only problem with algae is that no one outside of Asia knows about it so ENERGYbits spent the last 6 years educating athletes, runners and consumers about algae and its benefits. Their efforts have paid off and athletes coast to coast increasingly use ENERGYbits to fuel their race, improve their game or take their performance to the next level, all without caffeine, chemicals, sugar or gluten.

Their two most popular algae brands, ENERGYbits (spirulina algae) and RECOVERYbits (chlorella algae) are now regarded by pro, Olympic and endurance athletes as the most natural way to improve their performance and an insider's secret.

As Catharine Arnston, Founder and CEO explains: 'ENERGYbits are 100% spirulina algae that provide a steady stream of energy, improve endurance, strength and focus. RECOVERYbits are 100% chlorella algae that provide rapid recovery, repair muscles, remove lactic acid and build the immune system. All of this is backed by 50 years of science and occurs without chemicals, sugar, caffeine, gluten or stomach distress. Our algae tabs are plant-based 'bits of food' that have more protein than steak, more antioxidants than cherries, more iron than spinach, more beta carotene than carrots, more calcium than milk and contain more than 40 vitamins/minerals nitric oxide and omega-3.'

As the importance of sports nutrition continues to ripple through the athletic community, the attraction of ENERGYbits clean, green, paleo fuel is understandable. No wonder 60 Olympic and pro athletes, like NHL's Andrew Ference and three-time USA Olympian David Oliver, endorse ENERGYbits and global shipping giant FedEx produced a video about them. Their recent award as one of Boston's fasting growing, cutting edge sports/fitness companies only confirms what sports insiders already know. ENERGYbits algae tabs not only work, they are a game changer for athletes.

ENERGYbits is a 6 year old, privately held sports nutrition company based in Boston, USA. Their four brands of algae tabs are used by professional and amateur sports, marathon runners, triathletes, fitness enthusiasts, wellness professionals and health conscious consumers.
