ALOE VERA SPORT NUTRITION
Consumers are increasingly concerned about health. They also are learning more about the benefits of exercise, and they need help coping with increasingly busy lifestyles. For all these reasons, AMB WELLNESS can point to increased demand for products designed to aid physical performance including Aloe Vera as a carrier, vehicle, or bio enhancer of your formula, existing line, or new one.
Sports supplements and related health products are not just for trained athletes. Inevitably, a growing number of everyday people consume these items daily as part of their pursuit of a healthy lifestyle. But even as sports nutrition manufacturers win over these non-niche consumers, the category’s more traditional clientele of bodybuilders, elite athletes, and so on shouldn’t be forgotten.
Sports nutrition isn’t just for serious athletes anymore. The interest in sports nutrition is growing in part from increased household incomes worldwide and people aspiring toward healthier lifestyles, especially a healthy body weight.
In addition to bodybuilders, athletes, and sports hobbyists, sports nutrition buyers now include a new group that he dubs “lifestyle users”. These users aren’t athletes or even always athletically inclined but see sports nutrition products as a sort of stepping-stone in building healthier lives.
In sports nutrition products, such as weight loss and nutrition for the elderly, the list doesn’t end there, also in the market, you can offer immune-support products along with traditional sports supplements is another way to spread sports nutrition into new areas.
The market demands much greater differentiation than it did in the past. The days when a single multivitamin tablet satisfied all consumers are gone, today manufacturers have to offer functional foods with specific health benefits to meet individual consumer needs, the lifestyles of the consumer are changing, and your company needs to adjust to new trends. In terms of the active ingredients that are up-and-coming in functional foods, aloe Vera has a well-known reputation in consumers’ minds.
Drinks have seen the biggest change in this regard. Sports drinks were once reserved for professionals and hard-core workout enthusiasts (before, during, and after exercise) now casually consumed as refreshments by a broader range of consumers.
The sports nutrition consumer base continued to expand into active consumers interested in protein, energy, and performance ingredients. In response, companies rethought formulas, flavors, and delivery technologies.
Sports nutrition refers to the consumption of nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, supplements, and organic substances that comprise carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Sports nutrition products, such as sports drinks, sports food & sports supplements are developed for, and consumed by athletes and bodybuilders to improve their overall health, performance, and muscle growth.
Sports drinks are primarily consumed by athletes to replenish the water level in the body. These products are increasingly attractive to lifestyle and recreational users.
Currently, developing countries represent a huge growth potential for these products on account of rapid urbanization, increasing disposable income, and a higher percentage of the young population.
There are different sports nutrition applications for lifestyle users and professional athletes alike catering to differing stages of the workout and Aloe Vera can work in your formulas.
- While this interest is triggering growth in pre-workout,
- Intra-workout (performance during exercise)
- Post-workout products (body recovery, avoiding fatigue, immune system, etc.)
Delivery forms can maximize the potential benefit of those ingredients. Today’s busy consumers look for easy-to-use formats. Healthy lifestyle consumers are also hungry for anything they perceive to be “good for preventing illness.
Aloe as a bioavailability enhancer
Factors such as the increasing trend of consumers towards healthy lifestyles, coupled with increased usage of Aloe Vera extracts as an ingredient in food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetics industries are showing global market growth.
Aloe’s polysaccharides contribute to drug absorption due to their enhancing properties. Currently, the new trend in Aloe Vera Global Market is using Aloe for Nutraceuticals as a vehicle for other functional ingredients enhancing their bioavailability instead of using other carriers that will not contribute.
Aloe Vera is a very promising future nutritional Bio-enhancer. Aloe Vera Powder has been shown to increase the solubility of water-insoluble drugs. The concentration of Aloe Vera is directly proportional to the drug release; Aloe Vera can be used as a bioavailability enhancer.
Bioavailability enhancers are drug facilitators, they are the molecules that by themselves do not show typical drug activity but when used in combination they enhance the activity of drug molecules in several ways including increasing the bioavailability of the drug across the membrane, potentiating the drug molecule by conformational interaction, acting as receptors for drug molecule and making target cells more receptive to drugs. A ‘bio enhancer’ is an agent capable of enhancing the bioavailability and bioefficacy of a particular drug with which it is combined, without any typical pharmacological activity of its own at the dose used.
ALOE VERA AS AN EXCIPIENT
The nutraceutical and functional nutraceutical industries endeavors to develop novel delivery systems which require excipients that fulfill specific functions. Excipients from renewable sources are attractive due to their sustainable mass production.
You can add bioactive ingredients to improve and boost the effectiveness of your formula, you can even use liquid forms to add into your products.
ADDITIONAL TIPS FOR
post-workout routines
Since a lot of electrolytes may be lost during workouts, it’s a good idea to supplement after one is done exercising. Mix aloe Vera juice with electrolytes, both of which need to be replaced during exercise and help maintain smooth muscle contractions and energy levels.
Last, there are some supplements well-known for supporting endurance. Chia and Cordyceps help on this front.
Aloe can be formulated with important nutrients such as:
- ATP support like creatine and calcium pyruvate.
- Encouraging the burning of calories for fuel (such as l-carnitine).
- Promoting healthy sleep (including l-tryptophan, 5-HTP, and melatonin).
- Supporting energy production (several vitamins and minerals like B3 and B12).
Having a good mixture of natural substances available in our bodies to
support healthy metabolism may be the most important factor in setting our energy levels.
POST-EXERCISE RECOVERY
Aloe Protein blends as a macronutrient that provides for the structural and functional components of muscle tissue, adding protein into the system during times of stress spares the muscle tissue already in existence, and allocates elements needed to synthesize new muscle tissue.
One aspect of Aloe Protein Blend that is more universally agreed upon is that it cannot work alone, add other critical components necessary to maximize muscle building.
One of the most critical is eta-hydroxy-beta-methylbutyrate (HMB). A metabolite of the BCAA leucine, HMB contributes to muscle building by helping to prevent protein breakdown.
Minimizing the amount of protein breakdown allows the newer muscle to grow faster, improving strength and body composition.
