Newly Launched UP2U RECOVER Protein Drinks and UP2U Unflavored Protein Powder Provide Fast Recovery for Fitness Enthusiasts and Athletes
"I really like the ability to recover faster and especially appreciate the simple ingredient list -- the electrolytes and monk fruit sweetening," said Don Bowie, world class alpinist, expert ski-mountaineer, mountain biker and long-distance trail-runner. "The taste is delicious and very subtle on the palette, while still nicely flavored and refreshing in contrast to many syrupy and overly-sweetened drinks. Even on a completely empty stomach and a morning spent downclimbing a mountain, I had no issues with digestion after drinking the entire bottle."

About PRONATIV Powder
PRONATIV is a high-quality, form of protein, featuring a completely neutral flavor profile and containing great amounts of leucine, the dominant amino acid for muscle-building. The PRONATIV manufacturing process of cold filtering milk protects the nutritional value of the protein. This means PRONATIV works faster, tastes better and is easier to digest than traditional whey proteins made from over-processed methods using fillers or additives, and that do not preserve the integrity of the protein's nutritional value.
