What if lactate wasn’t the enemy? 🧬

For years, we’ve associated lactate with fatigue and “lactic acid”.
Lactate is a molecule our body constantly produces during exercise — and one that can also be used as a source of energy. It also plays an important role in metabolic signaling as exercise intensity increases.
Now, SantaMadre is taking this idea one step further with LACTATE 60.
⚡️ 60 mmol of lactate
🍬 40 g of carbohydrates
🔄 1:1 glucose/fructose ratio
The idea isn’t to replace carbohydrates, but to add lactate to your fueling strategy.
It provides an additional metabolic substrate and introduces lactate as an active part of your fueling strategy during high-intensity efforts.
That’s why it’s particularly designed for moments such as:
* 🏃 High-intensity marathon efforts
* ⚡️ 5K/10K races - all-out effort
* 🚴 High-intensity cycling efforts
* 🏊♂️ Triathlon
* ⛰️ Climbs or changes of pace
* 🔥 The final stages of a race, when you’re pushing close to your limit
