Hydrating With Bala Enzyme - The Sports Drink Alternative

Sometimes we need a little extra boost when it comes to our workout routine and recovery process. I’ve never used any type of recovery workout drink, so trying something like Bala Enzyme, the sports drinks alternative was a first for me. To be completely honest, I really like it! Bala is especially great right now since many of us have refocused on working out or being more active in the New Year.

Not only are the flavors great, but I feel the benefits of drinking Bala after working out. I even drink it when I need a little extra boost. The key active ingredients include turmeric root, pineapple enzyme, and papaya enzyme. These are all rich in antioxidants and help in reducing inflammation, pain, swelling and muscle soreness. What’s more, Bala supports gut health, beauty, and digestion.

The Benefits of Bala

I also love that Bala is a zero-sugar, gluten-free, non-GMO mix, and the packets are easy to throw into your gym bag and transport. Each stick of the special formulation delivers a vibrant orange-colored powder showcasing the triple blend of enzymes.

The water bottle is also really neat because it indicates the measurements on the side, as well as the different benefits that Bala offers. The three different flavors are Berry, Lime and Pineapple. As a matter of fact, it’s got a really great flavor!

Additionally, I’m a huge fan of Bala because it’s plant-based and can be used as a natural remedy. I try to live a clean and healthy lifestyle – 80/20 right! So anything that I can incorporate into my routine or diet that’s natural is always a plus. And, I don’t like to admit this, but my knees aren’t what they used to be, so drinking Bala has really helped with the joint support. I love to box and Bala has been great in increasing my joint performance.

“Unlike most hydration sticks that only provide higher levels of salt to achieve hydration, Bala’s proprietary blend of plant-based enzymes offers support with relieving muscle soreness, joint health, gut health, rapid hydration, and immunity boost,” said Bala Co-Founder Doctor Arash Aftabi in a press release, who has been studying the positive effects of plant-based enzymes for his patients for over 20 years.
