The Boston Marathon is the world's oldest annual marathon and ranks as one of the world's most prestigious road racing events. The Boston Athletic Association manages this American classic, which is sponsored by John Hancock Financial Services. The Boston Marathon has distinguished itself as the pinnacle event within the sport of road racing by virtue of its traditions, longevity and method of gaining entry into the race (via qualification).

Herbal Nutrition Supplement

Herbal Nutrition Supplement

That's right!! The Herbal Nutrition Supplement called FRS-PLUS boosted elite cyclists' performance by 3.1% in a clinical trial - and that's without any EPO ;) As a multisports or endurance athlete, gag t-shirts alone will not help you perform at your best - wish they did cuz I'd be in Kona no problem or running this weekends Boston Marathon! Anyway, so what the hell is FRS? FRS stands for "Free Radical Scavenger" and it is literally the best tasting stuff you've ever had - almost tastes like a melted orange creamsicle and they have a new lime flavour too. It's an antioxidant booster, as well as an antioxidant and multivitamin. Take this stuff with you on your next run or long ride, and you'll perform like a champ! ;)

What are free radicals?
Free radicals are reactive oxygen molecules that are created as a by-product when our body burns oxygen to create energy. These molecules have an unpaired electron in the outer shell that makes them unstable.

How often does our body produce free radicals?
Millions are produced every second.

What effect do free radicals have on the human body?
They damage healthy cell walls, reduce the energy producing capability of the mitochondria in the cells, and even damage the DNA in the cell nucleus.

What causes free radical cell damage to increase?
Exposure to environmental toxins, stress, chemicals, radiation from the sun, high fat diet, high sugar processed foods, periods of intense exercise, periodic over-exertion (the "weekend warrior syndrome") and lack of sleep.

What are some long term possible effects of free radical cell damage?
Premature aging, weakened immunity, and low energy. In addition, while disease conditions are associated with many factors, including family history, diet and lifestyle, scientific research now suggests that free radical damage may be implicated in over 60 diseases, including cancer, heart disease, diabetes, arthritis and Alzheimer's.

What does FRS stand for?
Free Radical Scavenger.

What are Free Radical Scavengers?
Free Radical Scavengers, more commonly know as antioxidants, neutralize free radicals to help prevent damage to our cells.

What are flavonoids?
Flavonoids are polyphenolic substances present in most plants, concentrated in the seeds, fruit, skin, bark, and flowers. They are powerful antioxidants that fight free radical damage.

What are the key metabolic enhancers in FRS?
Caffeine
Quercetin
Vitamins C, E, B-1, B-2, B-3, B-12, and B-6

Why are those key metabolic enhancers beneficial for my body?
They help to absorb the other nutrients

How much caffeine is in a serving of FRS?
There are 38 milligrams of caffeine in an 8 ounce serving of FRS, which is equivalent to a cup of tea or approximately 1/3 cup of coffee.

What are the key active ingredients?
500 mg of quercetin, which is typically found in the skins of apples, onions and red grapes.
100mg of catechins extracted from green tea
100% + RDI of 7 key vitamins

Why are those key ingredients beneficial for my body?
Quercetin
• Quercetin has powerful performance-enhancing, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.

Green Tea
• Green tea, recognized worldwide for its therapeutic properties, contains powerful flavonoids called catechins. The chief catechin in green tea is epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), which is a powerful antioxidant with anti-inflammatory, cholesterol lowering, fat burning and other beneficial properties.

Who should use FRS drink?
Everyone can use FRS to fight against daily free radical cell damage. Because of its caffeine content (about ¼ of a cup of coffee) and energy-increasing properties, FRS should not be given to very young children without a pediatrician's approval.

What will I feel after drinking FRS?
Consumers of FRS often experience an increase in energy and alertness within 30 minutes of ingestion.*
* Individual results will vary.

How often should I drink FRS?
Two 8 oz servings per day are recommended, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, to obtain the best results. A serving is 2 oz of FRS concentrate combined with 6 oz of chilled water to make an 8 oz drink.

How many servings are in a 32oz concentrated bottle of FRS?
There are 16 servings per bottle.

How do I make a serving of FRS from the concentrated form?
Shake the bottle of FRS well. Pour 2 oz of FRS concentrate into the plastic measuring cup and then pour into a drinking glass. Add 6 oz of chilled water and stir.

Is it okay to mix FRS concentrate with other liquids than water?
Yes, feel free to use in smoothies, juices or protein shakes.

What is the shelf life of FRS in the concentrated 32oz bottles?
1 year

Do I need to refrigerate the concentrated 32oz bottles FRS?
Yes, but only after opening the bottle
