Here's a tip, use the packets. They're uber convenient for taking to the gym and mixing with water. Also perfect for travel. I love it.
If you drink the Vega Sport Optimizer right before your workout, can you also eat an energy bar too--or is that too much?
There's an interesting article on Wikipedia about salt and iodization:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iodised_salt
It sheds a bit more light on the subject. Wikipedia of course isn't the ultimate authority on the subject, but i think the info in thi…
Sorry Kate, but this is another alarmist post, and i'm thankful to contributers like Matt who are willing to highlight some of these troubling and misleading statements.
As another example, you state: "The iodine added is synthetic and inorganic me…
Hi Kate, thanks for the contribution. It seems a bit alarmist to me, however..
Do you have references to back up these claims? You make it sound like sodium chloride seeks out and kills our cells...wouldn't drinking water with salt do the same thin…

I had my first dose of Vega Sport on the weekend just prior to doing a short 6km trail run. The thing I found was there was a lot less pain during recovery and less muscle cramping etc. In addition to pre-workout I am going to using Vega Sport to cu…
I like the Lemon Lime flavor. It gives me LOTS of energy. I took packet around 5pm yesterday and was up all night. I'll take less next time I take it in the evening. I still had lots of energy today despite 4 hours of sleep.
Vega is not available in Australia just yet but we do plan to add international shipping to our web store in the coming months. Will keep the community posted!
Just shake a scoop with a cup of water in your water bottle and drink about 20-30 minutes before your workout. If you have a longer workout, you can also sip throughout. It's a drink, not a gel. Have a great workout!
I'd love to try it... Whens it coming to Australia?
so do you just drink it before? or do you put it in your water bottle? it sounds like some people are taking it like they would a gel :) thanka a bunch! Meg
Oh...
Sport drink is good, btw :)
Although, probably not a good idea to take daily, as I'm already increasing my dosage after one week.
Same as anything I geuss... body adjusts.

I've been having the gaseous issues with the Vega WFO, but not the SPORT drink.
I don't know if they've changed their formula for the WFO in recent months/ years, because when the product first came out, I didn't have this response to it.

Hi Carl - amazing that you have found all the answers at such a young age! ;)
