As you all know, I’m a huge fan of Vega for their 100% REAL plant-based ingredients — their smoothie infusion rocks my face off. I was beyond psyched when Kelly (a rep from the lovely company) let me know that they were launching a sports drink.

Instead of the high fructose mumbo jumbo, artificial ingredients and colors, the new Vega Sport contains organic plant-based ingredients.

Here’s some info from the website:

Vega Sport Performance Optimizer provides a complete array of key performance enhancing benefits including:

  • Immediate and sustaining energy
  • Increases endurance, aerobic and anaerobic capacity
  • Enhances mental focus and motor performance
  • Reduces stress and enhances immune system function
  • Replenishes electrolytes lost during exercise
  • Reduces inflammation, joint and muscle pain
  • Improves body composition and reduces body fat
  • Supports healthy weight management

Ingredients:

  • Coconut oil
  • Kombucha
  • Yerba Mate
  • Green Tea
  • Rhodiola Extract (which improves mood, physical and mental performance)
  • Panax ginseng extract (for immune system and stress reduction)
  • Devil’s claw extract (for joint vitality)
  • Tumeric extract (increase circulation)
  • Ginger extract (reduces inflammation and aids digestion)
  • Electrolytes
  • Sprouted whole grain brown rice syrup (for healthy carb fuel)
  • Palm nectar (for sustaining energy)
  • So in a nutshell, it’s the perfect pre-workout beverage and I CAN’T WAIT TO TRY SOME!!!!

So here’s what the lucky winner gets:

– A tub of Vega Sport (valued at $49.99) in lemon lime or acai berry

-Vega shaker cup

    Love the ingredient list. Kudos to Vega!

  28. Kathleen on October 13, 2009 at 2:48 pm

    I would use this product to fuel my workouts when I am on campus for long hours and running low when I head to workout at the end of the day. I think this will definitely help me with recovery times from workouts!

  29. Karen on October 13, 2009 at 2:48 pm

    I would love to use Vega b/c I started my dance classes again to get back into shape – and I study West African which is hot, hot, hot! 🙂 Along with those and my modern, ballet and Zumba classes, I need something to keep me going during the time. . .

    I really need this Vega in my life! 🙂

  30. Tiffany on October 13, 2009 at 2:53 pm

    I would take this with me on hikes in the forest.

  31. Bianca on October 13, 2009 at 2:54 pm

    I would love to use this during my boxing and muay thai training. My gym is kept hot and humid so we know what it’s like to train in Thailand.

  32. Stephanie on October 13, 2009 at 2:55 pm

    I would drink this for a boost before starting Jillian Michael’s 30 day Shred!

    I would definitely use this before I run!!

  34. Chloe (Naturally Frugal) on October 13, 2009 at 2:58 pm

    I would most definitely use this after the kickboxing class I’m taking! It’s so hardcore and leaves me a sweaty mess, so the Vega fuel would be awesome.

  35. Justine` on October 13, 2009 at 2:59 pm

    Hi Gina!

  37. Alexandra on October 13, 2009 at 3:01 pm

    Holy yum! You’ve been talking about this stuff for ages and I would LOVE to try it out.

    I would use this FOR BREAKFAST! JUST BECAUSE…

    in all seriousness, though, I would like to use this after my usual 45 minute upper or lower body routine followed by 20 minutes on the stair mill. YES PLEASE!

  38. Ashlee on October 13, 2009 at 3:01 pm

    I have been dying to try Vega, but living in this small, small town, there is none to be found. I would definitely use this for fueling during an intense run and after a workout at the gym!!

  39. Karen on October 13, 2009 at 3:01 pm

    I would use this before water polo practice and our dryland practices!

  40. MMiller on October 13, 2009 at 3:02 pm

    I would love to try this to give me the extra I need to get back to doing a full workout!

  41. Danielle on October 13, 2009 at 3:04 pm

    I would use this during my long runs!

  42. Tammy Eros on October 13, 2009 at 3:05 pm

    EEEEEEEEKKKKK! I never am one to say “Pick me! Pick me!” but here I am saying “PICK ME!”…I would LOVE to have some of this awesome sounding stuff for my marathon training hydration! It sounds just like what I have been looking for!! Especially in Acai Berry flavored, YUM!

  43. Steph on October 13, 2009 at 3:07 pm

    I would use this fuel for my long days!! I am a full time nursing student, I walk to and from campus which is a 3.5 mile hike, I do yoga, and plenty of studying! Somewhere in there I get some sleep too. I would love to try this out 🙂

  44. Mellissa on October 13, 2009 at 3:08 pm

    I would love to use this for my post workout nutrition after a day of heavy lifting! Squats, deadlifts and all sorts of fun stuff 🙂 I tweeted this as well 🙂 (fitnspicy)

  45. Kate on October 13, 2009 at 3:10 pm

    I would use Vega to fuel my runs…or swimming, getting back into an old sport again!!

  46. Amyella on October 13, 2009 at 3:10 pm

    Love!! I would use this to get me pumped for my morning run and (hopefully) push me through this recent slump I’ve hit!

  47. Rosie on October 13, 2009 at 3:11 pm

    Amazing giveaway!I just gave my protein powder to the BF because it had some animal yuckness in it. ): i would definitely use this in green monsters and after fueling runs, spinning class, and general workouts!

  48. Gillian on October 13, 2009 at 3:13 pm

    I would totally use this for my long runs when I need that extra bit of a kick to keep going!

  49. Holly on October 13, 2009 at 3:13 pm

    you know i be drinking this for all my running – plus, it will help me stay motivated to run if i have some of this in my kitchen!

  50. Amanda on October 13, 2009 at 3:14 pm
