FDA approved for what? And as what? The FDA 's concern with foodstuffs is that they are safe. Showing it's safe doesn't mean it has any sport benefit at all.
And you have contradicted yourself, LWS. You said earlier it had fruit sugars and then later it had no sugar. Fruit sugars are sugars!
I'm sorry if you feel you have been given a rough ride here, but if you had been honest from the start about your vested interest, we might have been a little more forgiving. If you had even been honest the second or third time you were asked.
And lastly, you still haven't made any claims about the drink. What do you actually claim it does? Certain other sports drinks invest in sports research and can back up their claims of increased performance and recovery because it has been measured. Without that, you are selling fruit juice.

Ah but Stumpy, it's fruit juice from a superberry, so that' obviously better than normal berries, right? It's right there in the name, isn't it? i mean, it wouldn't be called a "super" berry if it wasn't.....well, super.
And it has binding properties, which obviously helps.
And more antioxidants than any other recovery sports drink, which obviously is going to.................anti any oxidation that might otherwise have.........oxidised.
It's obvious.
And he's tried it and says it works, so surely that's enough.

I've lost over 50lb and brought my Marathon PB down by 90 minutes.
I sometimes have a chicken burger and a pint after a race.
Therefore the two are linked.
JD Wetherspoon provide the best recovery food around. Next time I see one of you I'll buy you a recovery pint!

Only one, for only one of you, mind. Only the most sceptical, and only if you dump your personal details into my facebook app.
Cheers.
