Herbalife has launched a great tasting, innovative and superior Isotonic sports drink "H30 Pro" which we believe is the best product of its kind on the market. It is formulated by Experts in sports nutrition at UCLA to help keep you:

  • Hydrated by replacing fluid and electrolytes which are lost through sweat
  • Energized in your workout with energy from carbohydrates
  • Maximise absorption and antioxidant protection
  • Refreshing and clean subtle taste with no artificial sweeteners, preservatives or flavourings

H30 Pro Isotonic drink is based on Isomatulose sugars, which is naturally derived from honey, thereby not producing energy highs and lows, or produce any damaging health effects, and produces a slower more constant energy release than glucose. It's also:

  • 3x higher in potassium supporting muscle function and maintains the electrolyte balance
  • 12x higher in calcium and also contains magnesium, important to keep your muscles and bones strong, and also stops muscle cramps
  • Has 5 energy producing B vitamins
  • Contains no artificial sweeteners, flavourings or preservatives

Helps protect the body's tissues and immune system against the potentially damaging effect of free radicals with the antioxidant vitamins C and E. H30 has been endorsed by two gold medallists at the 2008 Beijing Olympics.

H3O Pro is not based on High Fructose Corn Syrup like some other drinks.Public health advocates are pushing for a ban on the sale of high fructose corn syrup based sports drinks and flavoured waters, warning that these drinks contain as much as two-thirds the sugar of sodas, and more than three times the sodium.

Herbalife products continue to help professional Athletes worldwide achieve optimum fuelling and recovery, including  LA Galaxy (David Beckhams club), Valencia and FC Schalke 04.

Supplements containing antioxidants and arginine may boost athletic performance for the over-50s, says a new study from the US.

The combination supplement was associated with a 17 per cent increase in the anaerobic threshold - the amount of work done before lactic acid begins to accumulate in the blood, according to findings published in the Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition.

The supplement used in this study was the branded Niteworks supplement (Herbalife International Inc, California), which contains a proprietary blend of L-arginine with L-citrulline, vitamins C and E, folic acid, L-taurine, and alpha lipoic acid.

"We've demonstrated a 16.7 per cent increase in anaerobic threshold. This indicates a potential role of arginine and antioxidant supplementation in improving exercise performance in elderly," said Li.

Isotonic drinks help athletes rehydrate, as well as replenish electrolytes, carbohydrates, and other nutrients. Electrolyte replacement promotes proper rehydration, which is important in delaying the onset of fatigue during exercise. As the primary fuel utilized by exercising muscle, carbohydrates are important in maintaining exercise and sport performance.

Extensive research and development has resulted in a science-based isotonic sports drink which offers more than other leading isotonic drinks available to consumers. Here are the key ingredients in Herbalife H3O Pro™ and why they are important in an isotonic drink:

Source of sugar which forms the carbs in the drink: Isomaltulose: Isomaltulose is a naturally derived source of sugar that acts as the key carbohydrate in H3O Pro™, providing immediate and sustained energy to prevent unwanted performance dips - it will not create a quick spike and crash energy as some sports drinks do which contain glucose syrup/ maltodextrin instead of Isomaltulose

Key electrolyte: 140mg potassium: H3O Pro™ is over 3 times higher in potassium than leading competitors. Potassium is essential for water and electrolyte balance throughout the body and helps support muscle function.

Calcium (120mg) and Magnesium (50mg): H3O Pro™ is 12 times higher in calcium than leading brands and it also contains magnesium, unlike leading brands. Calcium is essential for bone health and combination of both calcium and magnesium is great for muscle function especially for muscle cramps during and after excercise.

Contains 15% RDA of five energy releasing B-vitamins to help the body to absorb the nutrients in H3O Pro™ to power your performance.

H3O Pro™ is 12 x higher in calcium - essential for bone health and also contains magnesium. The combination of both magnesium and calcium are great for muscle function especially for muscle cramps during/after exercise.

H3O Pro™ contains key antioxidants vitamins C & E and mixed tocopherals - a powerful combination to help protect the body's tissues and immune system against the potentially damaging effects of free radicals often induced during exercise.
