Product Description

Each sachet contains 1 x 35g serving of Active Root. Simply pour sachet into a 500-700ml sports bottle, mix throughly until dissolved, then you're ready to go.

Each drink of Active Root BALANCES the body through natural ginger, delivers FUEL through cane sugar and provides effective electrolyte HYDRATION through sea salt. For more information about how Active Root BALANCES,
FUELS and HYDRATES, please read on...

BALANCE - Each sachet serving contains over 200mg of natural dried ginger, the optimal amount to help alleviate symptoms of gastrointestinal stress and calm the prevalence of nausea.

We use a high gingerol compound ginger that not only tastes great but makes a genuine difference to how you feel during exercise. Click here for more info

FUEL - Each serving contains 32.5g of carbohydrate in the form of unbleached cane sugar.
Cane sugar is a lower GI index carb and is a slower burn fuel compared to other carbs such as maltodextrin, glucose and fructose. Slower burn carbs will help sustain you for longer and help avoid sugar highs and crashes. We also use unbleached cane sugar as it is more natural, chemical free and less unadulterated form of fuel compared to the other synthetic factory made carbs mentioned above.

HYDRATE - Each serving contains 400mg of sea salt.  Salt helps aid with re-hydration of water into the body. Sea salt also retains essential elements magnesium, chloride and potassium. These elements help maintain the balance of electrolytes in our bodies which are essential for normal function of our cells and our organs. Click here for more info

Hi, Just a quick note to say thanks for solving one problem for me while on an Audax long distance ride. I am halfway through qualifying for the 1200km ‘Paris-Brest-Paris cycle event that is staged once every four years. I have now qualified on the 200km and the 300km events - I have the 400km and the 600km to do in the next few weeks. It is on the 300km ‘Green and Yellow fields’ on Saturday the 4th of May that I write to you about. Over such a long distance it is important to carry essentials without riding an over laden bike-Active root has solved that. I had my two drinks bottles on my bike (filled with ginger tea and peppermint and ginger) but two bottles will not be enough for the 190 mile ride. Problem solved-carry a few extra sachets in my bag and when needed. I just refilled my bottles with water at a checkpoint. I crossed the line in around 18 hours (two hours ahead of the cut off time limit). I am definitely taking my active root on the 400 and 600km rides. Glynn

I already use the original flavour which is great tasting and really helps my stomach. I usually have a green tea in the morning so the green tea and ginger flavour intrigued me so I gave it a taste. I have to say I really like the taste it takes the sweet edge of the ginger when you want something a bit milder. The slightly earthy flavour of the green tea really goes well with the ginger and this will become my go to Active Route when I've finished the ginger tub. Fantastic

I should confess I am already a fan of Active Root sports drink. I like the ginger flavour and I have found it doesn’t adversely affect my stomach as much as other sports drinks. The one thing that was frustrating about the launch product was that it took a while for the pure cane sugar to dissolve in water. I tended to mix the drink and then leave it for a few hours, or overnight, so it had dissolved by the time I wanted to use it. That wasn’t ideal but it worked. Brilliantly, the new products are faster dissolving. It is excellent actually. The powder mix of unbleached cane sugar, natural dried ginger and sea salt easily dissolves in cold water. It looks like a smoother powder compared to the first version. Another development is that there is more electrolytes in the form of sea salt compared to the first version. The amount is now 400mg per 35g. And there is a new flavour, Active Root Green Tea and Ginger drink. I really like this. It’s the same drink as the Original flavour but with an added touch of green tea, which gives a cooler, slightly more earthy flavour. It’s a less sweet taste and I far prefer it. This is a better taste for the latter stages of a long training run or race when you are fed up with sweet snacks and drinks. It’s also a great taste for people who are not so keen on the flavour of ginger. I enjoyed taking regular sips of Active Root drink during a recent race.
