Cody: New ASEA Research

EXCITING RESEARCH SHOWS A BREAKTHROUGH IN METABOLITE SHIFTS LENDING TO INCREASED FREE FATTY ACIDS AS FUEL SOURCE ALONG WITH A POTENTIAL GLYCOGEN SPARING EFFECT!
The research, conducted by the renowned Human Performance Laboratory at Appalachian State University, validates what ASEA drinkers all around the world already know: ASEA has profound positive benefits to the body. In fact, the research findings were so profound that even the scientists doing the research were astonished by the results. I’ve been using ASEA in my training and racing for the last two years and have noticed substantial benefits. The primary one being a bolstered immune system that has allowed me to only ‘get sick’ once over the last two years! Not counting my recent three week viral infection that occurred when I decided to “pack light” and reduce my ASEA usage right before my first big race of this year. Not smart. I got sick. The positive side of it is that this reinforced to me the importance of the product in my daily routine. The other ‘performance’ benefit I’ve noticed in my training is increased endurance and ability to train at a higher output compared to heart rate (a way to gauge the effect of ones effort on the body). I wasn’t sure what was accounting for this performance benefit, but I have suspected that improving my metabolic utilization of fat for fuel (thus sparing glycogen) was a possibility. This new research now proves that my own reported benefits are in fact occurring and that it is due to improved fat utilization! That is BIG news as improving and endurance athletes ability to utilize fats for fuel is objective number one in training. ASEA actually provides a similar benefit that is found from miles and miles of aerobic training! Pretty rad.
