Peak Hydrate

“One day while I was running, I was thinking, If I'm doing all this hard work to look fit and be fit, how come I don't look like a 'Spartan' like in the movie '300'?. I knew it wasn't the food I ate because I had a clean diet, so it was either that I needed to do more exercises or maybe it was something else. Then I wondered, What if it was the fluid I was drinking - the sodas, sports drinks, and sweetened teas. What if the ingredients of those drinks, the high fructose corn syrup, the artificial sweeteners, or the plain old sugars were keeping me from attaining the appearance that I wanted? So I quit drinking all those drinks.

But one thing was missing… I really missed drinking my sports drink! There is nothing that compares to that salty sweet taste after working out. So I started to question if I had to give up my sports drinks. I also looked to see if there was something else I could drink after working out to satisfy the need for replenishing the salts and sugars I had burned while working out.

That is when George Carradini (also a fitness enthusiast) and I started brainstorming about solutions. We asked a lab which specializes in drink flavoring to formulate a sports drink for us - one that did not use any artificial sweeteners or any sugars. The result was Peak Hydrate™. It is just the drink that I was looking for; a drink with non of the high fructose corn syrup, no artificial sweeteners, and no sugars.” - Dr. Keith Ryan

“During my 9 years of active duty as an officer in the U.S. Marine Corps, I saw how important it was for consistent daily exercise. While in my 20's and early 30's, it was possible for me to eat whatever I wanted and would not gain any weight at all. However, upon leaving the Marines, my lifestyle changed along with my metabolism. With my busy professional career, it became a chore to keep my weight down and my waistline small. Soon, I was buying larger and larger clothes as my waistline started a contest with my chest size!

That was my motivation for developing a sugar-free sports drink with Dr. Keith Ryan. After drinking samples of Peak Hydrate™ for several months, reducing my carbohydrate intake, and ramping up my exercise routine, I went from 205 pounds down to 179 pounds. At this weight I now enjoy hiking on two-week hikes, have a much more active lifestyle and I am eating clean again.” - George Carradini
