Science of heat stress and the gut

The Science behind ZUULCORE

Our formula is based on 10 years of research into protecting the gut during physical stress such as exercise in the heat, or heat stress. Drinking before and after exercise will help protect your gut and minimize stress.

Science of gut damage during exercise

What’s Inside ZUULCORE?

Designed to deliver key nutrients to the gut at functional doses. Most gut health drinks contain pre/probiotics which require months of daily use to gain benefit. One dose is effective for helping the gut!

Glutamine

Protein

Carbohydrate

Electrolytes

Papain

Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the body. It is a major nutrient for the gut and immune cells. During situations of physical stress, like heat exposure, glutamine becomes essential

Protein supports muscle recovery and growth. Protein ingestion has also been shown to protect the gut during heat stress

Carbohydrate is key to water absorption in the gut, even more than sodium. Carbohydrate is also important for maintenance of energy during heat stress

Electrolytes are key nutrients that support function and recovery from heat stress

Papain enzyme from papaya is a naturally occurring enzyme that supports digestion and GI function
