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

    I’m training for a half marathon and hate sports drinks. I would love to try this!

    I would use it pre-dance practice! Practice is usually during dinner time, so I can’t get to the dining halls beforehand…

    I need something to fuel me through my 3 hour lab classes at school and Vega would be the perfect thing. That way, I could head straight to spinning class after lab sans worrying about skimping on my nutrients and having less energy!

    Thanks Gina!

    WHOA!
    I took up running this month… I try to job two miles everyday but sometimes I’m just lacking the energy to make past mile one (that’s just sad). I gave up energy drinks as part of my new healthy living regime, and I’m looking for a natural way to boost my energy after work to get me though my short run (and hopefully into some longer ones)!

    I would use this to fuel up for my long saturday runs while training for the Disney Half Marathon in January with Team in Training to fight blood cancers!

    I just started an intense “Bootcamp” class at my gym! It sure is tough to go from work to the gym (especially to this class) with little to no energy. This could be the perfect pre-workout drink for me!

    (First comment (ever) after a year of reading!!)

  18. Melissa G on October 13, 2009 at 3:41 pm

    omg this is awesome! I could really use this on long (3 hours or longer) bike rides or during my triathlons. I usually am forced to use Gatorade because I have serious health issues with only drinking water with that much exercise. This would be so much better!!

    I am building my cardio back after a setback due to a foot injury. This product would be perfect to give me an extra kick to get ready for my upcoming 5K.

    This seems like a wonderful product. I would use this before my morning strength training workout! I especially like that it says it helps with joint and muscle pain since I have knee problems and have to ice for 20 minutes after every workout every day!
