Q: How does your BCAA formula work?

HOW TO USE SWEAT SUPPS 

Q: Can I take STAMINA pre-workout on an empty stomach?

If you take it on an empty stomach, the effects of the pre-workout may absorb quicker than if you have a meal before taking it. Be sure to drink plenty of water before and during your workout. We always recommend starting with a half scoop to test your tolerance.

Please refer to our guides on How to Take STAMINA Pre-Workout and How to Take BCAA for more information. 

SHELF LIFE & EXPIRATION

Q: How long do your products last?

BCAA has 60 servings per container with 5g per scoop. It will last between 4.5 and 8.5 weeks depending on if you are using one or two scoops per day.  

STAMINA has 25 servings per container with 19g per scoop. Depending on your caffeine tolerance, you may only need a half scoop. It should last a minimum of 4-6 weeks.

MARINE COLLAGEN has 30 servings per container. Each scoop contains 10g of locally sourced Hydrolyzed Fish Collagen and 120mg of Hyaluronic Acid. Depending on daily use, it should last a minimum of 4 weeks if taking one scoop per day. 

GREENS has 30 servings per container with 10.5g per scoop. Depending on daily use, it should last a minimum of 4 weeks if taking one scoop per day.

Q: How should I store my supplements?

Store in the original container, well-closed and away from moisture, light and heat. Do not remove the silica packet. Once opened, use within 3 months for best quality.

Q: My pre-workout has gone clumpy, is this normal? 

This is normal for products that have been open for over 3 months, or unused for an extended period. The powder has crystallized because moisture has gotten into the container. Please see our storage tips above and once opened, use within 3 months for best quality. 

It is still 100% safe and effective. A quick fix is to take a whisk or fork to break up any clumps and ensure the cover is on tightly.

BREASTFEEDING 

Q: Is the Stamina Pre-workout safe to consume while breastfeeding?

First and foremost, we recommend consulting a physician. The main concern is caffeine consumption. Upon consulting a physician, we determined that someone who regularly drinks coffee could safely replace it with a half scoop of STAMINA formula. We would still recommend checking with your doctor before trying STAMINA.

Q: Is the BCAA Formula safe to consume while breastfeeding?

First and foremost, we recommend consulting a physician. BCAA does not contain any caffeine; it contains artificial sweeteners. Upon consulting a physician, our formula is safe to consume while breastfeeding.

Q: Is Marine Collagen with Hyaluronic Acid safe to consume while breastfeeding?

First and foremost, we recommend consulting a physician when starting a new supplement, especially during pregnancy or breastfeeding. However, there is no known harm to consuming collagen. 

Benefits: 

  • There is 9g of protein per serving in our formula. Protein is essential for the production of breast milk. Breastfeeding women require an additional 25 grams of protein per day.
  • Women are at risk of bone resorption during pregnancy, and hydrolyzed collagen has properties that support bone health. 
  • Collagen is known to help reduce joint pain, which can occur during pregnancy/early postpartum. 
  • Collagen is rich in amino acids, which your body uses to build keratin in the hair to help with postpartum hair loss.
  • There is 120 mg of Hyaluronic acid per serving in our formula. HA works by acting as a cushion and lubricant in the joints and other tissues. It is naturally occurring in the body and is deemed safe; however, few known studies show its effects on those pregnant or breastfeeding. Check with your physician before starting use.

Q: Are Greens safe during pregnancy and/or breastfeeding?

It's always best to consult with a healthcare professional or a qualified obstetrician regarding specific dietary considerations during pregnancy.

In general, a balanced and nutritious diet is essential for the health of both the pregnant person and their developing baby. Consuming a variety of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats is typically recommended.

Our Greens formula does contain a small amount of caffeine (20mg) in the form of green tea extract.

MEDICATION AND HEALTH

Q: I am interested in trying STAMINA. I have seen warning labels advising people on blood thinners not to take pre-workout. Why is it not recommended? 

You certainly want to be cautious with stimulants and heart conditions. The caffeine in STAMINA may have adverse effects with blood thinner medications.We strongly recommend you check with your physician before taking. See our ingredient list here

Q: I have Type-1 Diabetes. Are Sweat Supplements diabetic-friendly, as in, no added sugar? 

We recommend consulting your physician before using our products. There are no added sugars in BCAA or STAMINA; they both contain artificial sweeteners. BCAA contains sucralose and natural/artificial flavour. STAMINA contains stevia, sucralose, and natural/artificial flavour. 

SUCRALOSE

Q: Why is there Sucralose in STAMINA & BCAA?

The taste of our products was a top priority when creating Sweat Supplements. As a result, it has been a driving sales factor for us. Sucralose was able to get us the result we were looking for at a smaller dose when compared to Stevia. In contrast to competitors using Sucralose, we are at a lower average. As with most things in life, everything in moderation can be safe. 

STAMINA Pre-workout = 279 mg/serving 
BCAA = 51 mg/serving
