Why Recovery Pops are good for you? All Recovery Pops are made from natural and organic ingredients. Each Recovery Pop will contain one or all of the ingredients listed below.
Bananas are incredible versatile, portable, and palatable—but that’s not the only reason you should eat them on the regular. The potassium in one medium banana equals about 400mg, which helps lower high blood pressure and your risk for stroke; they’re loaded with digestible carbs, which helps fuel your body in everyday life and difficult workouts; plus they contain tryptophan, an amino acid that’s known to boost your mood and provide a better night’s sleep.
Coconut water. Recent studies have shown coconut water enhanced with sodium was as good as drinking a commercial sports drink for post-exercise rehydration with better fluid tolerance. Another study reported that coconut water caused less nausea, fullness, and stomach upset and was easier to consume in large amounts during rehydration.
Fruits are not only loaded with carbohydrates, they also contain enzymes to help your body break down nutrients so they can be delivered to your tired muscles. Fruits offer a rainbow of anti-oxidants.
Ginger is an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. Ginger also stimulates circulation.
Green Tea is an exceptional addition to your everyday diet. It comes in at just two calories per cup, but boasts cancer-fighting compounds that can kill oral cancer cells, and can significantly increase the amount of weight you lose if you pair consumption with daily exercise, according to two Penn State University studies.
Kiwi aids with digestion and helps break down amino acids.
Limes contain Vitamin C, which is an antioxidant and immune booster. Potassium also key in maintaining nerve function and healthy blood pressure)
Mango(s) are filled with flavor and vitamins. Vitamin C (antioxidant and immune booster), Vitamin A (antioxidant and vision) and Potassium (to balance out our high sodium intake).
Pineapples are known to have anti-inflammatory properties to help your muscles recover.
Spinach is virtually free of cholesterol, sugar, fat, and is loaded with fiber, calcium, and beta-carotene—a nutrient vital for immune-system health and good vision.
Strawberries, blueberries, and the like are some of the best, most nutrient-dense sources of carbohydrates among fruits. They’re vitamin- and mineral-rich, and research even found berries capable of turning white fat into calorie-burning beige fat. Blueberries have incredibly high antioxidant levels, which help fight free radicals, slow down aging, and reduce your cancer risk; and berries are high in fiber, so they’re naturally filling.
