Each serving provides 27.5g of naturally occurring carbohydrates, helping contribute to muscle recovery when consumed as part of a structured post exercise nutrition plan. The sour cherry variety used by 226ERS is specifically selected for its naturally higher content of phenolic compounds. This results in 1505mg of polyphenols and 191mg of anthocyanins per 100ml, compounds widely recognised in sports nutrition research.

Cherry Tart contains no added sugars, preservatives, colours or flavours. It is suitable for vegan, vegetarian and gluten free diets, making it a clean and straightforward option for endurance athletes. It also carries the Cologne List seal, meaning it has undergone rigorous testing to verify that it is free from substances prohibited by WADA.

The format is simple and practical. Despite being concentrated and intensely flavoured, it can be taken straight from the stick or diluted in water, depending on personal preference. With a 24 month shelf life and compact 60ml size, it is easy to include in your race kit or recovery routine.

Cherry Tart works by combining a natural source of carbohydrates with high concentrations of polyphenols and anthocyanins derived from sour cherries. The 27.5 g of carbohydrates per serving contribute to the replenishment of glycogen stores when consumed as part of a total intake of 4 g of carbohydrates per kg of body weight within four hours after exhaustive exercise.

The phenolic compounds found naturally in Prunus cerasus, particularly anthocyanins, are widely studied within sports nutrition. By using a sour cherry variety with a higher natural concentration of these compounds, 226ERS ensures a consistent and concentrated formulation designed to support athletes during demanding training blocks and competitive events.
