One of the most simple, performance-boosting supplements on the market.

As a Feed Favorite, this product is phenomenal at increasing oxygen uptake and buffering lactic acid. What will you feel? During hard efforts your legs will simply hurt less, enabling you to push harder than you normally could in training and racing.

Beets have been known to help boost endurance performance for a while, but Sur AltRed is the first beet supplement on the market that contains only betalains extract, the nutrient that produces the red pigment in beets.

AltRed uses a proprietary extraction method to remove nitrates and sugars, creating a betalains concentrate with increased bioavailability. You cannot get this from whole beets, beet juice, or beet powders.

Why do we love Sur AltRed?

The AltRed Betalains in these tiny capsules improve oxygen delivery to your muscles and allow you to go further, faster, and longer in training and competition. AltRed's clinically proven athletic performance and recovery benefits are backed by science, 8+ years of field testing, and world champion endurance athletes. These studies have shown that Sur AltRed can help athletes:

Increase power output
Cover more distance for the same effort
Increase cycling and running efficiency
Reduce markers of muscle damage
Recover better

AltRed is also safe for sport. It is certified by Informed Sport. We've been testing this in-house for some time now and the results are outstanding. This is now a staple in our supplement closet and the results are in. It works...and works well!
