acid zapper

When a competitive athlete exceeds his or her natural ability to flush out or neutralize acidic wastes, acidic buildup occurs. Acid Zapper naturally supplements the ability of your body to keep the blood, cells, and tissue free from the excessive amounts of acidic waste generated during exercise. This gives athletes the opportunity to break performance barriers. In an interview Lance Armstrong was asked what was unusual about his body that made him so fast and his response was, " I produce little to no lactic acid for some reason". The reason is his Krebs cycle is somehow different than you and I but with Acid Zapper you can help make up for this and the difference is very profound.

Athletic Benefits
· Neutralizes the acids generated internally by sustained physical activity.
· Reduces muscle cramping and burn during exercise.
· Lowers lactate levels in blood.
· Improves endurance and power.
· Shortens recovery and reduces DOMS (Delayed Onset of Muscle Soreness)

The club receives a 15% rebate on all purchases.
