Cooperation Born and Prinsen Berning With Team Sunweb in Giro D'italia

From the start, the goal of the development of the sports drink, together with the riders and the staff of Team Sunweb, was to achieve optimal use and function. ISO PRO+ not only supplements carbohydrates, fluid and minerals, but also has a mixture of peptides (very small protein particles) with the Peptopro® developed by DSM. These peptides provide a much faster absorption of proteins compared to normal proteins, establishing an immediate muscle recovery during the exercise. This ensures the maintenance of the performance level and a speedier recovery which results in better endurance. Peptopro® is completely soluble in water and does not cause any issues with digestion.

An important characteristic of 'Active Nutrition' is its relevance for all life stages. Products are specially developed to help consumers pursue an active and healthy life. With a leading position in Europe in the development and production of high-quality protein-rich powders and bars, Prinsen Berning has, next to nutrition in the sports category, also an extensive and fast growing product portfolio within the categories Diet and Wellness, a market which shows strong growth worldwide.
