Fulvic Acid Organic Pre-Workout Tablets
The unrivalled potential of fulvic acid to improve endurance, decrease recovery time and protect against injury in sports has been well documented. Yet, little seems to be known about this remarkable nutrient. As a supplement for sportspeople, it is second to none. Here’s why:
WHAT IS FULVIC ACID?
Fulvic acid is a naturally occurring, organic compound which is formed during the decomposition of plant material (composting) over millions of years. The microbes responsible for the process of decomposition release oxygen into the soil with the result that fulvic acid contains approximately 45% oxygen (See Fig 2). This oxygen is highly bioavailable and readily absorbed by the cells of the body.

- Carbon 45.8
- Hydrogen 5.4
- Nitrogen 2.1
- Oxygen 44.8
- Sulphur 1.9
WHAT CAN FULVIC ACID DO FOR THE SPORTSPERSON?
Because fulvic acid contains approximately 45% highly bioavailable oxygen it has the potential to:
- reduce the impact of carbon dioxide – the reason sportspeople ‘run out of steam’ – during sport.
- reduce the detrimental effects of lactic acid build-up – the burning sensation of muscles during extreme exertion.
- accelerate the healing process after training.
Fulvic acid also:
- allows the muscles to recycle the body’s prime energy currency, ATP, making it available for further use. It, therefore, provides energy and, like creatine, allows muscles to work harder.
- as a powerful antioxidant, provides optimal protection against the increased production of oxidants during sport.
- provides the most powerful natural electrolyte in existence
- dissolves silica to maintain the strength of joints and connective tissue
