Buyer-side answers from our nutrition team

Frequently asked questions

Practical answers to the questions buyers ask most when specifying a natural sports nutrition premix.

Why is this blend so broad?

Because the four nutrients each carry strong, distinct sports claims - Magnesium for muscle and electrolytes, Zinc for protein synthesis and testosterone, Vitamin C for exercise immunity and collagen, B6 for protein and glycogen metabolism. One blend therefore covers performance, recovery, immunity and structural health rather than a single angle.

Does it support recovery as well as performance?

Yes. Reduction of tiredness and fatigue, normal protein synthesis, electrolyte balance and collagen formation are all recovery-relevant claims carried by the blend, making it suitable for post-workout and recovery products as well as pre-workout and performance formats.

Is it suitable for sports and recovery products?

Sports drinks, protein powders, pre and post-workout supplements, capsules, energy bars, gels, functional beverages and recovery products. It dry-blends cleanly and has proven stability; for liquid and heat-processed formats Eiméar calculates overages.

Which EFSA health claims does this blend support?

53 claims in the natural variant (43 organic) under EFSA Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006, grouped into:

Muscle and performance: normal muscle function, electrolyte balance, protein synthesis, testosterone maintenance (Magnesium, Zinc)

Energy and recovery: energy-yielding metabolism, reduction of tiredness and fatigue, protein, glycogen and macronutrient metabolism (Vitamin C, B6, Magnesium, Zinc)

Immunity and antioxidant: immune function including during and after intense exercise, protection from oxidative stress (Vitamin C, B6, Zinc)

Collagen and structure: all six collagen-formation claims (Vitamin C), maintenance of normal bones and teeth (Zinc, Magnesium

)Mind and hormonal: cognitive, psychological and nervous-system function, hormonal regulation (Zinc, Vitamin C, B6, Magnesium)

The complete list is in the spec sheet and confirmed for your dosage by Eiméar before label sign-off.

Is an organic version available?

Yes - an EU Organic certified variant (BB3065) providing Vitamin C, B6 and Zinc, enabling 43 claims. Wherever possible we prioritise organic sources.

What MOQ and lead times apply?

Premix blends carry a 5 kg MOQ with an approximate 4-week lead time, and a 24-month shelf life. Samples are available on request.
